William Sadler is known to Star Trek fans for his time on Deep Space Nine as Luther Sloan, a member of a mysterious group within Starfleet called Section 31. Through three episodes, Sloan introduced viewers to this clandestine organization that left a huge mark on the franchise. But, the actor who played this character is just as impactful.Sadler talks to us about growing up in Upstate New York and becoming an actor, what he learned at Cornell University, playing Julius Caesar in The Bard’s famous play on Broadway alongside Denzel Washington, and breaking down how to keep the works of Shakespeare fresh as an actor. From there, we deep dive into Sloan and Section 31, memories from playing the part, and what made this Machiavellian character so important to DS9 and Star Trek as a whole. We also discuss some of his other notable works like his time as Heywood in “The Shawshank Redemption,” Colonel Stuart in “Die Hard 2” and his infamous nude scene, and playing The Grim Reaper in “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey.” Check out The Kitchen Tapes album on William Sadler’s official website https://therealwilliamsadler.com/ as well as https://williamsadler.bandcamp.com/ William Sadler’s YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@williamsadler3885/videosPlease subscribe to our brand new YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@trekuntold .There, you will see all the old episodes of this show, as well as new episodes and all of our other content, including shorts and some other fun things planned for the future.Visit my Amazon shop to check out tons of Trek products andother things I enjoy - https://www.amazon.com/shop/thefightnerd View the Teespring store for Trek Untold gear & apparel- https://my-store-9204078.creator-spring.com Support Trek Untold by becoming a Patreon at Patreon.com/TrekUntold.Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a rating if you like us!Follow Trek Untold on Social MediaInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/trekuntoldTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/trekuntoldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/trekuntoldFollow Nerd News Today on Social MediaTwitter:  Twitter.com/NerdNews2Day Instagram:
