Karl Urban, who will play a young Dr. Leonard McCoy in J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Trek movie, told TV Guide that the film will be true to the original series' spirit.
"The movie is very, very faithful to the spirit of the original series and the characters that were created in the '60s," Urban told the magazine.
Urban (Doom) said that his McCoy "is the lovable, irascible humanist that he has always been [and] a good friend of Jim Kirk [Chris Pine]."
But Urban added that "J.J. is going to reinvigorate this franchise in a fresh and exciting way." Star Trek is aiming for a Christmas 2008 release. |
