Is Whoopi Goldberg going to be in the next Star Trek movie? Zoe Saldaña’s recent appearance on The View raised the possibility, but also created confusion about Whoopi returning to Star Trek. An Academy Award winner, Whoopi Goldberg played Guinan on Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Picard.Goldberg appeared in two Star Trek movies as Guinan, 1994’s Star Trek Generations and 2002’s Star Trek: Nemesis.

Zoe Saldaña and her husband, Marco Perego, appeared on The View to promote their new film, The Absence of Eden. When The View co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin asked Saldaña about the possibility of the long-delayed Star Trek 4 happening, Zoe asked her fellow Star Trek actor Whoopi if she was “excited”, which then prompted this exchange with Joy Behar that raised the question whether Whoopi Goldberg “got the job” in another Star Trek movie:

Zoe Saldaña: Are you excited?

Whoopi Goldberg: Maybe, just a little.

Zoe Saldaña: Just a little, right? Just a little.

Joy Behar: Don’t tip your hand yet.

Whoopi Goldberg: Say what now?

Joy Behar: Don’t tip your hand yet. Don’t tell them you got the job yet.

Whoopi Goldberg: Okay.

Joy Behar: Did you get the job?

Zoe Saldaña: (gasps) For Star Trek? Oh my god!

Whoopi Goldberg: What is happening right now?… I have no other work. I’m trying to get home to Sardinia.

Alyssa Farah Griffin: Do you have it or doesn’t you?

Whoopi Goldberg: I don’t know!
