Features

By GustavoLeao / 11:27, 22 February 2008 / Feature Films

Actor Anton Yelchin, the new Pavel Chekov from J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek prequel movie, is talking again, this time to the Chicago Sun-Times. Beware of spoilers.

"It is an origin story," he says. "It's really about how everyone's favorite characters ... got to the Enterprise. It's about how it all comes together. It's not just them arriving and saying, 'Let's just kick it on the Enterprise.' It's really an epic story full of different action and drama."

Regarding the new Enterprise NCC 1701, he says "The new Enterprise ship isn't straight out of the '60s. But they did take some '60s elements and keep them. The whole project is really a balance between the old series and the new film."

The original report is here.

This guy already killed my optimism with his action- movie pep-talk. I have no perverse need to be entertained by violence. This movie better be about a better future, to showcase Star Trek's core ideals to a new audience.

This guy really needs to be quiet, who needs spies when this guy will spill the entire plot within the next month at this rate.
