New STAR TREK movie right around the corner. LEONARD NIMOY talks all about it HERE. A few excerpts below.
Leonard Nimoy on what to expect from the new ‘STAR TREK’ movie:
“It’s a story that’s never been told. And I think it’s told very, very well.”
“The script really captures the essence of those characters and brings them together in a very entertaining, very exciting way.”
On ZACHARY QUINTO:
“I think very highly of Zack Quinto. I think he’s a very good actor. What I’ve seen of the movie, I think he does a wonderful job, as does the rest of the crew. I think they’re all very, very good in their roles.”
On ZACHARY QUINTO playing SPOCK:
“The Spock that he’s playing is a Spock that existed before the Spock that I played. He was younger, not quite so experienced, and therefore somewhat different.”
The J.J. ABRAMS directed remake hits theaters May 8th, 2009 and stars; John Cho, Ben Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Winona Ryder, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin … Pavel Chekov, Eric Bana, and Leonard Nimoy.
As Paramount Pictures readies the May 8 release of its “Star Trek” franchise relaunch, the studio is moving forward with a sequel, and has hired Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Damon Lindelof to pen the screenplay.
J.J. Abrams, who directed and produced the latest chapter, is on board to produce the follow-up alongside his Bad Robot partner Bryan Burk. No decision has been made yet on whether Abrams will return behind the camera for the sequel.
Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, “Star Trek” creator Gene Roddenberry’s widow who nurtured the legacy of the seminal science fiction TV series after his death, has died. She was 76. Roddenberry died of leukemia Thursday morning at her home in Bel-Air, said Sean Rossall, a family spokesman.
Roddenberry was involved in the “Star Trek” universe for more than four decades. She played the dark-haired Number One in the original pilot but metamorphosed into the blond, miniskirted Nurse Christine Chapel in the original 1966-69 show. She had smaller roles in all five of its television successors and many of the “Star Trek” movie incarnations, although she had little involvement in the productions.
She frequently was the voice of the Enterprise, and about two weeks ago she completed the same role for the upcoming J.J. Abrams movie Star Trek, Rossall said.
Official ‘STAR TREK’ trailer (complete sans blurriness) can be found HERE.
