Star Trek star Zachary Quinto is interviewed in the latest issue of the Official Heroes Magazine, just out in the U.S. Here are few excerpts of the interview.

HEROES MAGAZINE : You've said you lobbied for the role of Spock. How did you do that ?

ZACHARY QUINTO : I was really fortunate to find out about the movie right when my Heroes episodes started airing. I was being asked what I wanted to do [in the press] and the casting directors read the interviews [about wanting to play Spock].

How did the scheduling work out ?

When I got offered Spock, I was contracted for 11 Heroes episodes and would be back for one or two [at the end of season two]. But my last day was the first day of production that Star Trek shot. I finished and went back to Heroes.

Did the original Spock actor, Leonard Nimoy, influence your performance ?

We've been very close through this process, personally and creatively, so he's been very helpful and supportive. I will be associated with Spock for the rest of my career. It's a great honor and I embrace it fully.

The full article can be found on the latest issue of Heroes Magazine, now on sale.
