Slice of Sci-Fi posted a new audio interview with Stargate Atlantis actor Paul McGillion, who plays a cameo role in the upcoming Star Trek movie. Here is an excerpt, cortesy of TrekMovie
"I read for the part of Scotty, I was up for that for a while. That went to Simon Pegg, who is a terrific actor. ... J.J. Abrams is such a great filmmaker and, I can't say enough things about him." he said "[He's] just a great guy and so inviting and just a real class act. It was a thrill to work on such a big budget feature and I think it's going to be really great. I'm very excited to see it myself. ... It was really nice to be part of a huge franchise like that. I think Beckett's the first character to cross over into the Star Trek world from Stargate, if I'm not mistaken. It was cool to be part of that... to be able to work with somebody like J.J. Abrams who's done so much was a real pleasure for me and I'd do it again at the drop of a hat. It was a real thrill to work on it. ... I think it's something the fans are going to be really excited about and I think he'll keep the integrity of Star Trek alive."
