Tribute.ca posted a new interview with Star Trek star Zachary Quinto and here are few excerpts.
B: How was it working with such a fantastic cast including people like Chris Pine, Simon Pegg, and John Cho, to name a few of your co-stars?
Z: There's really not a weak link in the bunch and everybody has such a great sense of humor, all those people you just mentioned are all enormously funny and really talented, and we had a really good time. For the most part we're all going through something for the first time together and that's really nice because there's certainly actors in the movie that have been around longer, are further along on a path and have had experiences like this before, but the core of us are really being connected through what this means to us and to our lives, which is a really nice thing to be able to share.
B: Were you a Star Trek fan before making the film and did you end up watching episodes just to kind of get into Star Trek mode?
Z: No, not before I started the role. While shooting the movie I would play episodes in my trailer and always have it around. I got the boxed set of the series. So I watched it once we started but I wasn't really interested in trying to recreate anything so watching the series didn't seem like a natural departure point for my preparation. I used Leonard as a resource and I did a lot of my own reading and research and my own work with the screenplay that Bob and Alex wrote; that for me was the best way.
B: You're playing Spock at a younger age and it's the origins of the characters so it's a new approach to the franchise. After going to Comic-Con and doing interviews with some fan based websites, what is the general feeling about Star Trek?
Z: I've been met with tremendous enthusiasm, especially now that more and more images from the movie are being shared in trailers, and there's a real momentum, there's a real excitement that I've experienced, so that's encouraging.
B: Will we get to see more of you as Spock in other Star Trek films? Are you signed to sequels if this one takes off?
Z: Yeah, I'm contracted for more.
B: So you won't mind putting those infamous ears back on?
Z: ( laughs) No, the ears are cool; shaving the eyebrows is another story, ha ha. Yeah, right now for me the experience is all about this first movie and going through the process of promoting it all over the world, sharing it with people and seeing what else is generated from this experience. Other movies will come into place when they're meant to, when they're able to. If that happens I'll be excited about that as well.
