Nov 06 | J.J. Abrams is in talks to direct the opening episode of "Undercovers," his Warner Bros. secret agent pilot at NBC. Schedule permitting, Abrams, who also serves as executive producer and co-writer for the pilot, will make "Undercovers" the first TV pilot he has directed since 2004's "Lost" two-part opener, which is considered one of the best-directed pilots of all time and helped launch Abrams' career into helming such theatrical films as "Mission: Impossible 3" and "Star Trek." The NBC pilot has been described as a mix between "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and "The Bourne Identity." The original report is at the Hollywood Reporter.

According to CHUD.com, Heroes villain Zachary Quinto is "in negotiations" to play the young Spock in J.J. Abrams Star Trek XI movie.
Quinto told Starburst Magazine a few months ago, "When the news about the next Star Trek movie began to surface I became inundated with e-mails and links to websites where people were saying, 'Zach Quinto should play [young] Spock'. I started opening myself up to the idea and I think the exploration and immersion to be done with such a character would be amazing."
"I tend to be the type of personb who acts from a very visceral place and reacts emotionally to situations, and to 'become' a character that is completely the opposite of that is one of the reasons why I'm an actor. I would love the opportunity to understand what it is to only operate from a place of logic and look at things so specifically from that perspective."
If Quinto is indeed cast in Star Trek XI then that would require heavy retooling of the Heroes filming schedule as Star Trek's fall shoot would conflict with the series.
Official casting announcements for the movie are expected to be made at this month's Comic-Con in San Diego.
This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.
