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.

Comic Book Resources posted a report of the "Mega Movie" panel this weekend at the Wizard World Los Angeles convention, in which were offered exclusive previews of such movies as Speed Racer, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Hellboy 2 and several others.
Nevertheless, the panel gave the crowd the breakdown on all the comic book (and then some) related films coming down the pipeline in the near future. While most of the information was previously known, here are new info on the new Star Trek.
Regarding the upcoming Star Trek movie prequel, it was confirmed at the WWLA panel that the movie does involves time travel, as rumored for several months.
Here is a transcript of their report :
J.J. Abrams "Star Trek" has been pushed from Christmas of this year to May 8th, 2009. When asked about plot details the panel could only confirm that there is a time travel element to the story and that it will feature both Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto ("Heroes") as Spock.
The original report can be found here.
Maureen Ryan, a.k.a The Watcher at the Chicago Tribune, had an interview with Ronald D. Moore about Battlestar Galactica that she'll print next month -- however she has posted the part of their chat that touches upon Moore's visit to the Star Trek XI set. No spoilers. Wee snippet...
MR: "Did you think Paramount did the right thing by going outside the 'Trek' family, so to speak, for this film?"
RDM: "Absolutely. I think that was a very smart decision ... I think it's akin to when they brought in Harve Bennett to [write the second 'Star Trek' movie,] 'The Wrath of Khan' ... Bennett, who had no connection to the show, and [director Nicholas] Meyer, who had never seen the show, and they reinvented it. They started over. They went at the costumes differently, the storytelling, the vibe of it, the style of story that they were going to do. They rescued the whole franchise. 'Wrath of Khan' makes all the subsequent 'Star Trek' projects possible."

Another possible spoiler: Does Sulu get his sword-swishing ass handed to him by some baddie with a bigger blade?
The Finer Dandy blog attended the Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay screening, which was followed by a Q&A with John Cho. Dandy reports, "Cho was sporting some sort of ace bandage or cast on his right arm, and he admitted to the audience that he got an injury on the set of Star Trek."
What a wuss, John. ;-)
Gotta be tough. Like Katee Sackhoff in that bloody-nose-of-the-week BSG series.
Last Thursday, Sackhoff sat for a chat on The Hour, where she describes TNG as "fantastic". The complete interview video can be eyed at CBC.ca (yeah, that's in The Great White North, eh).
Wearing the same B&W outfit, Sackhoff sashayed over to MTV Canada. During their "Who Would You Do?" gag segment, Katee said she'd shag Commander Data rather than Spock, because the tinman "runs on batteries". Toaster lover! And Katee would sooner do Six (Tricia Helfer) than Boomer (Grace Park) on BSG, because IRL they share a love of motorbikes. Kick start the streaming video at MTV.ca.
