As reported in March, STAR TREK actor Walter Koenig will reprise his role as 'Pavel Chekov' in the upcoming third episode of the online series STAR TREK NEW VOYAGES, a fan-made continuation of Captain Kirk's initial five year mission. The episode, titled "To Serve All My Days," will be written by TOS writer D.C. Fontana.

In the story, the younger 'Chekov' is suddenly aged and has to deal with living out his twilight years.
"I am really doing it for the fun of it," Koenig told Canada's CBC Network.
Playing Chekov one more time is appealing to Koenig because he is giving the character to a satisfying storyline. He has "been known to weep and moan and carry on about how the character was never fully developed."
"This concept is very close to my heart," he said of the plot for "To Serve All My Days." "It's close to where I am in my life." Koenig praises the fact that fan favorite TOS writer Fontana is penning the script.
Koenig also admits that, for an actor like him, doing a fan film is risky. "What comes to mind is 'amateur' -- if you're thinking of folks out there just getting together and doing a show in somebody's barn. Certainly, there is that aspect to it -- and that's a very charming aspect to it. But also there are fans who are professionals."
"I don't think they can say it's not STAR TREK," said Koenig. "But it's a STAR TREK that has not been attempted before."
According to Koenig's view, Paramount will have to do more than just tolerate fan films "[The studio's executives are] going to have to realize that there's an opportunity here for them to cash in in some way."
"To Serve All My Days" is scheduled to film in September and will likely be released in January.
