SyFy Portal posted a new interview with Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry Jr, son of late Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, in which he talks about his visit to the new Star Trek movie set and his meeting with director J.J. Abrams. Here are few excerpts from the article.
"I met with J.J. Abrams, but I didn't really see any of the main product," Roddenberry said, likely visiting when Abrams was shooting secondary shots and the like following principal photography. "What I did see, it looked great. The costumes, acting, sets."
"J.J. is such a regular guy, and seems so much like a fan because he gets it," Roddenberry said. "While he has to work the way you have to work in Hollywood and balance what the studio wants, he's really on the side of the fans. He really tries to stay true of the continuity and stay true to canon."
The full interview, in which Roddenberry also talks about his documentary Trek Nation, can be found here.
