Buffy and Angel Star James Marsters Says Spock is a Role Model and He Cant Wait for Star Trek Into Darkness

Features

By GustavoLeao / 12:11, 1 March 2013 / Star Trek: Nemesis

LA Times posted a video interview with Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel star James Marsters and here is an excerpt.

“Spock was that side character that nobody thought would be that much, and he ended up kind of turning the theme on its head,” Marsters told Entertainment Tonight, in the video above. “‘Cause ‘Star Trek’ really was about human beings perfecting a worldview and then sharing it with the galaxy, and then Spock was just trying to figure out how to be human in the first place. And in ‘Buffy,’ I thought that I wanted to be the new Spock. I was like, Spock, Spike. Spike, Spock. … I was a little side character that no one really thought would be much, but I kind of turned the theme at a different angle so that you could kind of look at it.”

Marsters said he was looking forward to “Star Trek Into Darkness,”

“Anything that J.J. Abrams is involved with so far, I’ve thought was just really tight, so I’m on board, man,” he said. “I’ll be in line the first night.”

...that inspired me to "cast" Marsters as Spock for 'Star Trek (Reborn)'.

Which is coming back in a couple months, btw. ;)

The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on

my skin. But as the embers of the summer lost their

breath and disappeared, my heart went cold, and

only hollow rhythms resounded from within.
