Schedule permitting, Abrams, who also serves as executive producer and co-writer for the pilot, will make "Undercovers" the first TV pilot he has directed since 2004's "Lost" two-part opener, which is considered one of the best-directed pilots of all time and helped launch Abrams' career into helming such theatrical films as "Mission: Impossible 3" and "Star Trek." The NBC pilot has been described as a mix between "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and "The Bourne Identity." The original report is at the Hollywood Reporter.

NewsOk posted a new interview with Star Trek star Leonard Nimoy and here are few excerpts.
Q. In the new film, when you appear on screen, especially when we see your face for the first time, a noise goes up from the audience. Have you sat with an audience to watch the movie; if so, how gratifying was that experience and how do you interpret it?
A. Extremely gratifying. It's an accumulation of emotion from a 44-year relationship with the audience. Especially pleasing since Spock was marginalized by the makers of the movies and series that followed the first six.
Q. Have you and "Star Trek" reached a new generation of fans? Or is it a case of old fans returning to the fold?
A. Many new fans. We are now spanning several generations. At first I heard, "My kids are crazy about you." Then it became, "My parents are crazy about you." We're back to the young people now, so we have three generations of followers.
Q. Has anything surprised you about the reception of the new movie, and have you attended any "Star Trek" conventions since the release of the film?
A. I've just appeared at a convention in London. I'm not surprised. I was confident when I read the script and totally impressed with Mr. Abrams' work as a director.
Q. In the new film, Spock, not Kirk, gets the girl ... and it's Uhura. What did you think about that plotline?
A. Wonderful, daring idea. I'm jealous.
