IGN Movies cites studio sources;<br /><br />Series reboot like Batman Begins.<br /><br />Filming starts this summer.<br /><br />Release Christmas 2008.<br /><br />Director: J. J. Abrams (Alias, Lost etc.)<br /><br />Casting (offered or in talks):<br /><br />Capt. James T. Kirk: Matt Damon<br />Science Officer Spock: Adrien Brody<br />Dr. Leonard McCoy: Gary Sinise<br />Engineer Montgomery Scott: James McAvoy<br />Helmsman Hikaru Sulu: Daniel Dae Kim<br /><br />Poster....<br /><br />All but Kim are very experienced actors. He's won a Screen Actors Guild awaed for his role in "Lost" and played Corporal Chang on Enterprise. <br /><br />Damon has suprised me in numerous action & dramatic roles.<br /><br />Brody can be intense as hell. In my mind Spock also requires someone with an distinctive facial structure & is tall and lanky. Brody has those being 6' 1" and "unusual" looking in spades.<br /><br />Sinese is likewise an excellent actor who could do McCoy with intensity. <br /><br />McAvoy has the advantage of being a real Scot and an excellent actor.<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
