Level -> Star Trek XI (5/19/2007 2:20:35 AM)
|
I'm not a trekkie, but I know there's a number of you here, so I thought I'd post this:
Release Date: December 25th, 2008 (wide)
Release Date Notes: (12/15/06) Although this movie was officially announced earlier this year for 2008, there have been some rumors that it may be bounced back a year to 2009. (3/1/08) Previously mentioned as a possibly summer, 2008 release, Paramount has officially announced a release date of Christmas Day, 2008.
(3/1/07) IGN FilmForce recently received a scoop on the word of who might be in top contention to play the top three roles. First up is Matt Damon, who as you can see above has long been rumored. He is now reportedly indeed in talks for the legendary role of James T. Kirk. That leaves the biggest question mark for a long time, Mr. Spock, who may be played by Adrien Brody, Oscar winner for The Pianist. Finally, there's Dr. Bones McCoy, who may be played by Oscar nominee (for 'Forrest Gump') Gary Sinise. Other actors that may be in talks to reprise familiar roles in this prequel are Daniel Dae Kim ('Lost') as Sulu, and James McAvoy, who played Mr. Tumnus in The Chronicles of Narnia, as Montgomery "Scotty" Scott. (4/19/07) IGN Movies reported a few weeks back that James McAvoy has shot down the rumor that he is consideration to play Scotty.
Damon's buddy, Ben Affleck, has also been bandied about as possibly playing Spock.
