The latest issue of Starburst Magazine, just out in the UK, features an interview with actor John Cho, the new Sulu in J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie. Here are few excerpts, cortesy of Sci Fi Pulse.
Regarding the new movie, Cho said "I don't mean to be vague but what I can say is honest which is that I think, myself and everyone else on the film, J.J. and the designers, I think we are trying to be respectful of the Original Series and we're also trying to get some new fans, do things differently and put a younger, more vigorous spin on it."
As to the change in release date - the actor is upbeat. "I think it's great. I was kind of attached to the Christmas day release because my family and I we used to go see movies on Christmas day so I was excited about that but, I think it probably is a summer movie and it's sold as a summer movie".
More from Cho can be found at Sci Fi Pulse.
