Star Track: The Next Hesitation is a fan made series of films. With over 16 episodes produced since 2001, the popularity of the show has gained momentum thanks to the videos now being available online. Created by Matt Kennedy and Christian Fauteux, the show focuses on a crew who explore the unknown. Generally received as a spoof of sorts, Star Track is and always will be a tribute to Star Trek. Every episode has been written, edited and directed by Christian Fauteux.



Matt Kennedy

Captain Louis Philippe Tremblay
Matt Kennedy comes from a modest Protestant family in the suburbs of Montreal, Quebec. He was first introduced to filmmaking in the fall of 1997 when longtime friend Christian Fauteux shared his obsession with him. As Captain Tremblay, Matt brings a passion to the screen. Through the years he has been able to fully understand the character he portrays. Captain Tremblay is a stern, impulsive, sometimes downright odd character. He is the Captain of the Starship Enterprise.


Christian Fauteux

Writer, Director, Editor, Number One, Admiral Ackbar, Worf Rozhenko
Will Franklin, A.K.A Christian Fauteux, has been actively involved with every single episode of Star Track produced. An accomplished writer, director and editor, we rarely see him on sceen. His roles are reduced to cameos. In the original 12 episodes of Star Track, he was a regular cast member, but he decided to turn his vision to the other side of the camera and in doing so, solidified the franchises success.


Erfan Tavakoli
Lieutenant Commander Analogue
Erfan not only brings passion and conviction to the screen, but his input and diligent work ethic make him an asset when a shot is in question for print. His character, Analogue, is a retard. A malfunctioning Android who can't seem to get anything right. Erfan was introduced to the world of Star Track in Episode 10, the first Christmas Special.


Devinder Birdi
Science Officer Smock
Dev, as he likes to be reffered to, also began his acting career in Star Track 10. An established villain, it wasn't until he convinced the management at Golden Shower Studios that he would be an excellent lead character, that his role would come to form. With his Scottish accent and alcoholic ways, Smock is slowly becoming a fan favourite.

Mack Mansouri

Yeoman Bland
Originally an extra for Episode 12, Mack had the cast and crew taken aback with his scintilating portrayal of a weathered Starfleet Officer. His bland approach to the role got him his name and the rest is history.

David Devine

Captain Tremblay Alt.
When a labour dispute halted the production of Star Track 10, David Devine replaced Matt Kennedy for two episodes. Dave had always been an extra in the original 9 episodes, and his portrayal of a terrible captain was well received. We wouldn't see him again until episode 16 in which he played a Mirror Version of Captain Tremblay.
Tony D'Orazio

Crewman BradShaw
Tony joined us on the set for Star Track 16 and it wasn't long until he was involved in a scene. Dubbed as "Crewman BradShaw" expect his role to expand and his death to be more fulfilling in the future.
Anthony Hoffer
Executive Consultant
Anthony is our guide to making a proper Track. He guides us in the ways Star Trek was and makes sure that we properly represent the vision that Gene had. He also served as "The Doctor" for 2 episodes of Star Track, but decided that he would be best served as Executive Consultant.
Lindsay Beoyce

Ensign Eazy
Ensign Eazy was also introduced in Star Track 16. Lindsay portrays the role of Geordie Laforges assistant. She possesses great acting abilities and her role will grow from the 17th episode onward.
Though the show started off as a joke, and still remains that way in many respects, we feel that with time, many things age well. The Star Track adventure has been a filmmakers dream. Taking nothing and propelling it to Internet sensation is not small feat! Here's to the memories, and the future of Star Track.
