Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
I was today years old when I found out that Alexander Siddig and Nana Visitor were once married and had a kid together.
Funniest thing is that the two actors actually married in the ds9 cast never actually were canonically together because their characters were simply too butch and too twink to have chemistry
Given that this gifset was one of the reasons I made my whole tumblr account, and in light of current beautiful Star Trek events, I’m reblogging this work of art
Andrew Robinson on playing Garak for the first time.
Thinkin about Pretty Boys with Huge Eyes and Chaos Energy 😱
Alexander Siddig, Hugh Laurie, Arsenio Hall: the holy trinity of mischievous side-eye
how dare they make us choose between these two chaotic darlings 💔
lotssss of great content coming out in the propaganda tho
Billy Dee Williams (Star Wars films)- No text propaganda submitted
Alexander Siddig (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)- The man has aged like fine wine and we still don't have an HD Deep Space Nine because no one could handle Sid in higher-def than the 90s could provide. We'd explode from the hotness.
Additional propaganda:
Billy Dee Williams:
Alexander Siddig:
This man is so hot, a straight man looked at him, thought how hot he was, and proceeded to try and pick him up in character. And tells everyone who will listen about it.
Where do I even begin? Here’s a man who is beautiful inside and out, who is best loved for a character who is beautiful inside and out. As Dr. Julian Bashir for 7 seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Alexander Siddig infused gentleness, wit and humor into his role. He was originally meant to be the hot love interest, but everyone soon realized that wasn’t working out. Naive, annoying and a know-it-all, people hated Bashir (and by extension Siddig), but Sid and the writers were playing a long game, and through incredible character growth Bashir became one of Trek’s beloved characters. Oh, you want more about Siddig’s looks? Tall, slender (some people say he’s mostly leg), sparkling grey/green eyes, fluffy Black hair and cinnamony skin, with a soft British-accented voice that purrs as he’s turns on Julian’s bedside manner, but can also be sharp like glass if he needs to take the moral high-ground (which Bashir frequently does). I know people who’d be upset if I didn’t mention his long, graceful fingers either, because he’s frequently holding a patient’s hand when they need his touch most.
he was hot then and he's hot now
The fact that garashir became canon is 100% thanks to Sid and Andy who have both been very vocal about this ship and still talk about it 30 years later. They are the number one shippers of the pairing and I can't help but think it happened thanks to their dedication to it.
i love that they had to do a double alternate timeline plot to get canon garashir past the higher-ups (and i’m still impressed that they managed it at all like holy shit) but i bet getting sid and andy, the original actors, to guest star to make this happen was the easiest part. those two were probably the first ones on board. they probably suggested pet names and shit. the absolute legends that are alexander siddig and andrew robinson. no one does it like those two. no one.
