TetsuoShima Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I was browsing through some startrek.com pages when I suddenly stumbled upon the page for Star Trek XI. It's not exactly like it's hidden or anything, but I still hadn't noticed it before. It has all the info you could want on the upcoming movie, definite actor lists for that matter... http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/series/MOV/011/index.html Spock -> Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto Kirk -> Chris Pine McCoy -> Karl Urban Scott -> Simon Pegg Sulu -> John Cho Chekov -> Anton Yelchin Uhura -> Zoë Saldana Sarek -> Ben Cross Amanda Grayson -> Winona Ryder Pike -> Bruce Greenwood From the look of these characters, it doesn't look good story wise, in terms of continuity. Looks like they threw that 'requirement' out the window for this feature. I still can't help but feel excited and curious over it though. However, if I had to utter a gues, I'd say this 11th movie will be the last one for a long time, the one that finally manages to bury the Star Trek franchise for a few decades. It simply has been mismanaged too much for too long ... Hehe, that would be a good announcement for the movie: RIP Star Trek. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayden Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 the line up looks great, but as u said, creatively it could be better. With such a high profile line up it could draw a broad audience. i wouldn't give up on it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnot Borg Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 It might pull in fans from other genres and get them to start paying attention to the older Treks. OR, it might stink to high high Olympus. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiggy Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 The list in incomplete, George Takei will be returning............I heard it from the mouth of this God when came to London last year. n a new and exclusive interview for Starburst Magazine which is out now in the UK. Actor George Takei revealed that he will be reprising his role of Sulu for a brief flash foreword scene in the new J.J. Abrams movie Star Trek. The scene which little is known about at present involves a brief exchange between Leonard Nimoy as Spock and Takei as the more mature Captain Sulu. Though the mature Captain Sulu is just an assumption on my part given that the article refers to the scene as a flash foreword scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soval Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 They should bring back Takei, Koenig and Nichols for sure in the new movie. It would be awesome to see them playing characters that are towards the end of their professional starfleet/civilian careers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbbb Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I would of course be open to seeing Takei in a new trek movie, perhaps as captain of the Excelsior? It would be interesting to see if he managed to remain captain up to say 2372 just after Kirk died. Spock could be so moved by his death that he goes to the Guardian of Forever to set things right and find a way to resuscitate him. Hmm... this could be a possible plotline for the film. I read somewhere on the internet that the Guardian of Forever is supposed to be in the film as part of a plot device involving time travel. I'm really glad Nimoy's working on the film, I think he'll bring back some much needed freshness to the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
