On the Kids Choice Awards carpet, We asked Chris Pine, who plays Captain James T. Kirk in J.J. Abrams’ new “Star Trek,” if his clothes are slime-proof.
“Yes,” he replied. “I have an invisible plastic coating on.”
We would expect nothing else.
So why on earth is the “Star Trek” premiere in Australia?
“I have no idea but I’m very excited to go there and I’m working on my accent!”
Does Pine Twitter? “Nope, and no Facebook or Myspace either. Just real people.”
Is that a new website?
What’s he doing after “Trek” opens. “A play at the Geffen in LA.”
Here’s the deets according to Culture Monster: Pine will star in “Farragut North,” Beau Willimon’s play about the world of spin during a presidential campaign. Pine is a Geffen veteran, having appeared there in 2007 in Neil LaBute’s “Fat Pig.”
From the Bridge of the Starship Enterprise to the stage at the Geffen.
Pretty cool.
