Casting
Picard & Crew in the new ‘Star Trek’?
Thanks to LatinoReview.com we’re getting wind of this slip of the tongue from one of the new ‘Star Trek’ movie’s writers, which occurred during the IDW Comics Panel at WonderCon 2009.
First of all, I want to say I don’t normally like to copy and paste such a large portion of another site’s article, but I felt it was necessary in order for you (the reader) to get the full picture. So, here goes…
When it came time to talk about Star Trek’s prequel comics, they were talking about how the Next Generation cast plays an important role in the story of the prequel and that in the last issue, (issue 4 I believe) it ends in a major cliffhanger with Nero that leads right into the new J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie.
“The end of issue 4 is a cliffhanger and is going to continue in the first few minutes of the movie.”
Right after that was said, another writer (or artist) said that part of the movie will take place with the Next Generation cast and to look out for that. Another guy on the panel gave him a quick “uh oh” look and smiled.
After that, someone from the audience asked “So are members of the Next Generation cast in the new Trek movie?” to which the same guy replied, “I really cannot say anything about that.” — LatinoReview
Hmm, Wow! This is certainly out of left field. Then again, I suppose it would make more sense if I was a reader of the comics that were mentioned. Any WAMG readers out there that have read these prequel comics? If so, give us your feedback on this news by leaving comments on the post.
