The latest issue of SFX magazine, just out in the UK, features a new interview with actor Karl Urban, the new Leonard McCoy from J.J. Abrams Star Trek prequel movie. Here are a few more excerpts from the interview.
Since the original Dr. McCoy, DeForest Kelley, passed away in 1999, did you feel at a disadvantage to Zachary Quinto, who had Leonard Nimoy as a mentor for playing Spock ?
Urban : I am very thankful to have had such a legacy of work to look at. But Zach spent a lot of time with Leonard. I was really envious of that.
What research did you do ?
Urban : Re-watching everything again. I had grown up with these characters. I was very familiar with the fabric of their relationship.
It's been 17 years since the original Enterprise warped off the big screen. Is the world ready for her return ?
Urban : It's the perfect time to bring it back and show these characters in their early years and get a bit of a backstory
How well do you think this movie ties in with the Trek mythos ?
Urban : If you are watching the 60s TV series, it would be like you were listening to it on the radio before and now you are going to see it in high definition.
Any thoughts on playing McCoy in either movies or a spin-off TV series ?
Urban : I would clearly love to carry on with that cast. We had such a wonderful time shooting, we were constantly cracking up. But it's too early to speculate. We really have everything going for us.
