I have a secret. Don’t tell anyone, but I’m a Trekkie. Yeah, probably not much of a secret if you follow my tastes in TV, movies, and books. I may not be a die hard Klingon speaking Trekkie, but shivers still went down my spine when I learned that the part of the cast and crew from the new Trek movie, Star Trek Beginnings, were in town for promotions.
Zoe Saldana dazzled the crowds at the CGV Apugujong in Seoul with Director JJ Abrams. She’s playing the character Uhura and hope she does justice to the role made famous by Nichelle Nichols. Beefcake was also on hand in the form of Chris Pine who plays the infamous character James T. Kirk.
From the trailers the film looks ready to reboot the franchise into the stratosphere and beyond. Though, I must admit, that I was hoping for a Star Trek Voyager or DS9 movie instead or even another Star Trek TGN.
The Seoul release date is march 7th 2009!
