Not too long ago, Star Trek: Voyager's Robert Beltran, famed for his role as Commader Chakotay, participated in a Reddit AMA where people asked the actor dozens upon dozens of questions about his film career and his upcoming feature (former Kickstarter project) Resilient 3-D, which will begin filming sometime this month.
Star Trek: Voyager is where we know him best: the tribal tattoo above his left eye pronounces his character's Native American heritage; soft flute music accompanying his entrance into rooms reminds us; and phrases like "A-koo-chee-moya" proclaimed whenever he contacts his animal guide makes damn sure that we never forget that he's a Native person.
