According to FreezeDriedMovies, 27 year-old actress Rachel Nichols, currently starring in the parking garage thriller P2, has been cast in J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek prequel movie.

No info on which role Nichols has been cast, but according to online speculation, it could be Janice Rand (played in The Original Series by Grace Lee Whitney), Number One (Pike's first officer, played by Majel Barrett in The Cage), Chapel (also played by Barrett) or maybe even a Romulan or a love interest for Kirk

Nichols worked before with Abrams on Alias.

This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.

The original report can be found here.

It's cool how JJ sticks by his people. I wikipediaed her. She was the one being groomed as Jennifer Garner's replacement on Alias.

She does look like she's make a decent Romulan with those highswept eyebrows. Carol would be okay, too, but the more I think about it....I don't know if I want a big part for carol becaue that implies more time off the bridge of the Enterprise.

I agree with some of the others, seeing her as Carol would be sweet as hell.
