Question: What American actor, who directed In the Cards, is known for his role as the Klingon Worf in the Star Trek franchise?
Context: Stovokor is an American death metal band from Portland, Oregon.  Its five current members are Bill Salfelder ("plnluH HoD"), vocals; Ward Young ("KhR'ELL"), rhythm guitar, Jason Lewis ("Khraa'Nik"), bass guitar; Jason Johansen ("Qui Pe"), lead guitar; and Matt Stikker ("Kh'amleth"), lead guitar.  The band is solely based on the Klingon characters that appear in the Star Trek franchise.  All of the members of Stovokor dress in Klingon costumes and many of the band's lyrics are written in Klingon language. The original series, which aired in the late 1960s, has since spawned five successor series and thirteen movies as of July 2016 , a plethora of merchandise, and a multibillion-dollar industry collectively known as the Star Trek franchise.  The franchise is owned by CBS Television Studios, which now owns television properties previously held by Paramount Pictures, the studio that produced "Star Trek" for many decades; CBS Paramount continues to hold DVD rights to the TV series, and the rights to produce feature films. The grammar of the Klingon language was created by Marc Okrand for the Star Trek franchise.  He first described it in his book "The Klingon Dictionary".  It is a nominative–accusative, primarily suffixing agglutinative language, and has an object–verb–subject word order.  The Klingon language has a number of unusual grammatical features, as it was designed to sound and seem alien, but it has an extremely regular morphology. Star Trek Into Darkness is a 2013 American science fiction action film directed by J. J. Abrams and written by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman, and Damon Lindelof.  It is the twelfth installment in the "Star Trek" film franchise and the sequel to the 2009 film "Star Trek", as the second in a rebooted film series.

In addition, numerous actors portrayed the various stages of Spock's rapid growth, due to the effects of the Genesis Planet, in the 1984 Star Trek film "".  In the 2009 film "Star Trek", Nimoy reprised his role with Zachary Quinto, who depicted a younger version of the character, existing within an alternate timeline.  Both reprised their roles in the 2013 sequel "Star Trek Into Darkness" and Quinto reprised his role again in 2016's "Star Trek Beyond". Worf, son of Mogh (wo'rIv in the Klingon language) is a fictional character in the "Star Trek" franchise.  He appears in the television series "" "(TNG)" and seasons four through seven of "" "(DS9)" as well as the feature films "Star Trek Generations" (1994), "" (1996), "" (1998), and "" (2002).

In the "Star Trek" franchise, the Klingon Empire makes use of several classes of starships.  As the Klingons are portrayed as a warrior culture, driven by the pursuit of honor and glory, the Empire is shown to use warships almost exclusively and even their support ships, such as troop transports and colony ships, are armed for battle.  This contrasts with the exploration and research vessels used by Starfleet, the protagonists of the franchise.  The first Klingon ship design used in "", the D7-class battlecruiser, was designed by Matt Jefferies to evoke a shape akin to that of a manta ray, providing a threatening and instantly recognizable form for viewers.  The configuration of Jefferies's design featured a bulbous forward hull connected by a long boom to a wing-like main hull with the engine nacelles mounted on each wingtip.  Though a variety of Klingon ships have appeared in "Star Trek", their design generally conforms to this style.  Most Klingon vessels were physically built as scale models, although later computer-generated imagery was used to create the models.  In recent years, many of the original studio models have been sold at auctions.
