The latest issue of Star Trek Magazine, out in the U.S. and the U.K., features a new interview with actor Simon Pegg, the new Scotty. Here are more excerpts from the article, cortesy of Sci Fi Pulse.
When asked the extent of his knowledge on Star Trek the actor admitted unashamedly that he has been a life long fan of the series.
"Obviously I watched the Original Series when I was a kid, and I knew The Next Generation well enough to know all the characters. I watched quite a few episodes, and I was a big Seven Of Nine fan when Voyager came out. Certainly, I was pretty familiar with it."
When asked about researching the role, the actor vehemently reassured that he has done his home work and doesn't intend to do an impersonation of Scotty as done by James Doohan.
"One thing I wanted to do was make the performance pretty much a tribute to James Doohan but I didn't want to impersonate him in any way, because I didn't want it to look like that. It's important that this film has no parodic element - it's a very straight film, and a none - ironic Trek movie. Obviously, it's walking a tightrope because it's going back in time a little bit to the original characters, so the tendency might have been to watch Jim Doohan and try to ape him. I personally didn't, I just drew on my memories and affection for the show."
More excerpts from the interview can be found at Sci Fi Pulse.
