JewishJournal.com posted an exclusive interview with Star Trek star Leonard Nimoy. Here are few excerpts from the article.
In 2002, Nimoy, now 76, said he was retiring from acting to focus on photography. But in May 2009, he'll return to the silver screen as an older Spock in J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie, a character Nimoy do not play since the two-part TNG episode "Unification" in 1991.
"My photography is still a major love and a major part of my creative life, but this is a 'Star Trek' project, so it's something special," Nimoy said.
"And I feel I owe it to 'Star Trek'; it's been a big, positive factor in my life," he added. "I do think this is a very serious chance for the entire franchise to become reinvigorated."

Spock fans and continuity fetishists can relax, Mr. Nimoy, knowing that the ST:XI makeup department won't need bleach to make Amanda Grayson's collar and cuff match: Winona Ryder says her natural hair color is blonde, but she's been dyeing it ever since she was asked to do so for her first film, Lucas, in 1986. Must've seemed like the logical thing to do.
