SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 11 (UPI) -- George Takei has joined the cast of the new live-action comedy series, "Supah Ninjas," the U.S. cable network Nickelodeon said Monday.
"Comic-book in tone and cinematic in style, the half-hour series follows three unsuspecting kids who are drafted into the secret world of crime-fighting after Mike Fukanaga (played by Ryan Potter,) an average high-school student, discovers he is descended from a long line of ninjas," the network said in a news release.
