STAR TREK MOVIE

 

 

And the Celebrity & Hollywood Reporter gives a glimpse of who is going to be in the new Star Trek movie –I only know Simon Pegg.  I don’t get out much.  When I heard the guy who was going to play “Dr McCoy” was Karl Urban I thought someone said “who played homo in Lord Of The Rings”!!!  It was,obviously,”Oemer”.  I’m still non-the-wiser.

 

 

I really am that old!  To prove the point:Burt Lancaster,Errol Flyn,Kirk Douglas,Yul Brynner,Claudia [sigh] Cardinali,Rod Taylor,Dalia Lavia [sigh].  They were in films I saw.

Pine (whose screen credits include “Smokin’ Aces” and “Just My Luck”) had long been rumored to be joining the cast, but has finally signed on the bottom line. 

He joins the previously announced Simon Pegg (Scotty), John Cho (Sulu), Zoe Saldana (Uhura), Anton Yelchin (Chekov), Eric Bana (the villain, Nero) and Zachary Quinto (who most know as the evil Sylar from “Heroes”) as a young Spock.
