Karl Urban Says New Star Trek is Going to be a Ballistic Movie and Please the Fans

Features

Hollywood.com posted a video interview with actor Karl Urban, who plays the new Leonard "Bones" McCoy in the upcoming Star Trek movie, recorded at the Cloverfield premiere back in January. Here are excerpts.

Are you a Trekkie or a Trekkie in the making ?

Yeah, I am a long term Trek fan, I used to watch the show when I was about seven with my dad, so for me to be a part of it is just awesome, and is such an exciting script and  I think is going to be a ballistic movie.[...]

The great thing about this script and, you know, what J.J. and this phenomenal cast is doing, is that is all very, very faithful
to The Original Series, to those characters that were created back in the 60s and to very spirit of the whole Roddenberry world, so I think fans will be very, very happy and excited, and  I hope it will bring new fans familiar with the Original Series or the movies, so it is exciting.

You can watch the brief interview at YouTube.

I'm hoping my brain won't explode before the movie comes out. That's what I get for reading every tidbit I can about the movie. I see and hear things that say it's faithful to TOS, but I've seen the trailer and that partial bridge shot that tell me there will be significant changes. I don't mind the changes to update the look. I'm just so confused!
