There hasn't been much information leaked from the set of the new Star Trek movie, but that isn't from lack of fans trying.
My favorite part of this TV Guide interview with Leonard Nimoy and Zachery Quinto (who both play Spock in the film somehow - I'm sure it involves time travel and science) is when Quinto reveals that one day during shooting, director JJ Abrams took out his cell phone and showed Quinto a photo that was on the web. A photo of the very scene they were currently shooting that day, in that very room! Personally, at that point, I would have ordered the doors locked and looked around and see who it could have been.

It seems like all the geekiest blogs buzz with excitement whenever there's news about the new
Star Trek movie. Yes,
that includes us. The film sounds cool and all, but I think the biggest reaction I have had is when I silently nodded with approval upon hearing that
Heroes' Zachary Quinto would be playing Spock. That is, until now.
Variety is reporting that
Shaun of the Dead and
Hot Fuzz star Simon Pegg is going to play Scotty in the upcoming feature. Simon Pegg! Insert obligatory "beam him up" joke here.

Stay calm, Trekkers, but this is big news:
a big-screen return for
Star Trek is in the works for 2008,
according to today's Variety.
And who will direct the movie? Why, J.J. Abrams of
Lost/
Alias/
Mission: Impossible 3 fame!
Probably a good choice. He knows how to mix the big action with the character drama, and he'll bring some buzz to
the franchise too.
The movie will focus on the early days of Starfleet, when Kirk and Spock first met.
Hmmm...readers, who do you think should play the young Kirk and Spock?
Celebrate the 4th by watching television!
