DVD Review: Star Trek
Posted on Nov 21, 2009 @ 10:12AM - 1 comment

More than 40 years after the USS Enterprise first launched, J.J. Abrams sexed up Star Trek for the modern age with his big-screen edition, banking more than $75 million from the opening weekend alone. Mixing sleek production value, high-voltage action and a nubile cast of fresh faces, Abrams managed to make the film his own, while paying tongue-in-cheek homage to the original, minus derision.

It’s official. Star Trek hunk Chris Pine will be stepping into the role of CIA analyst Jack Ryan- a character Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck have all helped bring to the big screen.

“With Chris in this role, we've taken our first step in creating a re-boot that lives up to the successful lineage of the franchise," Paramount Film Group president Adam Goodman said on Tuesday.
The role, which is based on the Tom Clancy novels, was first filled by Baldwin in 1990’s Hunt for Red October before Ford took over the role in 1992 and 1994 in the memorable blockbusters Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger. Affleck did his turn as Ryan in 2002’s The Sum of All Fears.
The script is still in production and no word on whether or not Pine will shoot the Star Trek sequel before becoming the CIA agent.

Looks like Chris Pine's upper body is lean, long and prospering.
The Star Trek star was snapped in Los Feliz, his neighborhood in Los Angeles, dribbling a basketball and sporting some series arm and shoulder definition.
Check out more shots of Pine working on his fitness.
Give the success of the sci-fi franchise update, a sequel is already in the works, one that will feature Pine as well as Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana and John Cho.

RadarOnline.com has the scoop on Chris Pine's latest acting role and we think Chris in the flesh is even better than seeing him on the big screen!
We were lucky to see the first night preview Tuesday night of the play Farragut North at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles with Chris starring along side an all star cast including Chris Noth, Olivia Thrilby, Isiah Whitlock, Jr., Mia Barron, Dan Bittmer and Justin Huen. We won't give you any spoliers, but Chris Noth surprised us as the political boss, and we loved the sparks that flew between Chris Pine and Olivia during their sexy love scenes!

He has boldly gone where no man has gone before. He has fought Klingons, Romulans and found romance with countless alien females.
But William Shatner, considered by purists as THE Captain James T. Kirk is nowhere to be found in the new Star Trek movie that premieres Thursday night in Los Angeles. Instead movie goers will see Chris Pine starring as a young Kirk, while Paramount tries to reinvigorate the 43-year-old franchise with director J.J. Abrams.

Tyler Perry is boldly going where no man has gone before. Not drag... Space!
J.J. Abrams --director of the upcoming $150 million dollar Star Trek movie -- went out on a limb to cast Perry in the film. Perry is, of course, best known for his hilarious gender-bending turns as Madea on the big screen, but he's never appeared in a movie apart from his own.
In Star Trek, the 39-year-old, hulking 6 ft 5inch actor plays straight-laced Admiral Richard Barnett.

Star Trek’s original Captain Kirk William Shatner has given his approval to Chris Pine’s performance of the famous space traveler in the new $150 million blockbuster.
The two actors finally met for the first time at a charity equestrian event in Los Angeles over the weekend. And Pine - who is about to become a breakout star in JJ Abrams re-invention of the space saga - admits he was a ‘little scared’ of meeting the original Captain James T. Kirk.
