UGO posted a new interview with actor Bruce Greenwood, who plays the role of Captain Christopher Pike in J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek movie. Here are excerpts of the interview (beware of minor spoilers)
UGO: Well, there's a role that you've recently wrapped, another great leader, not of our time, but of the future, and this of course is Captain Christopher Pike, who is a captain of The Enterprise prior to Kirk. (Not the first captain of course, there were others in between.) Can you tell us a little about your role as Captain Pike, on Star Trek?
BG: Well, I'm literally sworn to secrecy in many ways. So I can't give you any story points at all.
UGO: But you did work with Chris Pine on some of the scenes, correct?
BG: Oh, yeah. I worked with all the kids. I think, I don't know, but it felt to me on set, particularly with the vibe that JJ creates on set, that it's going to come off really well. I mean Chris is fantastic, Zack [Quinto] is really, really good. I think they made really wise choices in the cast. And JJ, of course, is force of nature.
UGO: Had you seen any of the episodes with Chris Pike in the old days? Did you go back and look at those tapes?
BG: Yeah, I went back and watched all the Jeffrey Hunter stuff.
UGO: Are you gonna' rock that same hair style he had?
BG: No, I'm not going to look like him. I haven't got that kind of ‘do going on.
UGO: He did have a killer ‘do going on. Can you tell me if your second in command on your Enterprise is a female like it was on the episode, The Cage that saw Christopher Pike?
BG: (giggling) I'm sorry you're breaking up.
