Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home was meant to provide a pivotal piece of Mr. Sulu's backstory, but it was sadly never completed for the final film.
A crucial piece of Mr. Sulu's backstory was planned for Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, but the scene was never finished and was sadly cut from the film. Takei portrayed Hikaru Sulu, the helmsman of the USS Enterprise, in Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: The Animated Series, and all six Star Trek movies starring the TOS cast. But Star Trek IV's moment meant to shed light on Sulu's origins was lost.
In Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, Sulu's role was perfunctory and similar to his tasks in the previous Star Trek movies: sit at the helm of the Klingon Bird-of-Prey stolen by Admiral James T. Kirk and pilot it as he did the Starship Enterprise. Sulu flew the Klingon warbird, nicknamed the S.S. Bounty, back in time to 1986 so that Kirk and his crew could exact their crazy plan to find two humpback whales and bring them back to save the Earth in the 23rd century.
Ultimately, the scene of Mr. Sulu meeting his 20th-century ancestor could be cut from Star Trek IV because, while it was a nice moment for the Enterprise's helmsman, it didn't move the Star Trek IV's story forward. Sulu's later moment of 'borrowing' a helicopter to transport transparent aluminum to the Klingon Bird-of-Prey to build a holding chamber for the whales was more pivotal to the story.
George Takei Got His Wish When Sulu Became Captain In Star Trek VI In Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Mr. Sulu was back at his post flying the USS Enterprise-A, and he had little impact on the story of Sybok's mad quest to meet God. But Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country marked a pivotal turning point for George Takei and Mr. Sulu, who was finally promoted to Captain and was in command of the USS Excelsior.
Captain Sulu has had a bit more canonical character development and backstory reveals since Star Trek IV. Star Trek Generations introduced Hikaru's daughter, Ensign Demora Sulu , who was a chip off the old block as the helmsman of the USS Enterprise-B. Captain Sulu also appeared in Star Trek: Voyager, and Takei voiced Sulu's comeback in Star Trek: Lower Decks.
