George Takei, best known for his role as Hikaru Sulu on Star Trek, revealed on his blog last week that he will marry his long-term partner, Brad Altman.

Takei, who recently guest-starred on Heroes, announced the planned union and celebrated the recent California Supreme Court ruling to end the state's ban on gay marriage.

"Our California dream is reality," Takei wrote. "Brad Altman and I can now marry.... At long last, the barrier to full marriage rights for same-sex couples has been torn down."

Takei (pictured, far right) says he and Altman have yet to set a date: "Brad and I are enjoying the delicious dilemma of deciding where, when and how we will be married."

Similarly, talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres recently announced plans to tie the knot with her actress girlfriend, Portia de Rossi.
