Celia Rose Gooding as Nyota Uhura
As a stage actor, Celia Rose Gooding rose to prominence with the Broadway musical “Jagged Little Pill,” based on Alanis Morrisette’s song. Her performance was nominated for the Tony Award. It was a huge honor for her, especially because she was just 20. Receiving the role of Nyota Uhura was another privilege. In The Original Series, the character was played by the late Nichelle Nichols, a renowned Star Trek veteran. Gooding plays a younger Uhura in “Strange New Worlds.” Both Nichols and Gooding enjoyed musical theater. Uhura, who was born in Kenya in the 2200s, is a translator and communications specialist on the ship.
