Chris, could you just talk about your own relationship with ā€˜Star Trekā€™ because you were born way after the TV show?

PINE: Way after the TV show. Growing up there were re-runs on television and Iā€™d watch those occasionally. And my grandmother was a big William Shatner fan so weā€™d watch ā€˜T.J. Hookerā€™ and old ā€˜Star Trekā€™ episodes. So it was on my radar but I wasnā€™t a fan.

Have you met Shatner?

PINE: I have not. I wrote him a letter early on in the process and just introduced myself. I just wanted to let him know that I was going to do my best to bring to life this part of Kirkā€™s journey and do justice to the wonderful job that he had done for 40 years. And he wrote me back very promptly and said, ā€œThank you so much.ā€ ā€œI wish you all the best of luck and letā€™s grab some lunch some time soonā€ which we have not but heā€™s a busy guy. Actually my father, whoā€™s also an actor, did a Priceline commercial with him about two or three weeks after I found out I had the part; so ironic, strange. And heā€™d also been on ā€˜Star Trekā€™ too, my father.

For someone who has never seen ā€˜Star Trekā€™, how would you describe James T Kirk?

PINE: James Kirk is angry, arrogant, brash young punk who is masking an incredible amount of insecurity and fear. He came from a broken home and is searching for something to do with his life. It is clear what he wants but he also isnā€™t sure if he wants to contend with the great shadow his father has cast over him. The interesting part of the journey is his learning how to harness all of the emotions born from this conflict, from this misguided young man into the focused confident commander that he later becomes. He is no superhero but rather an everyday kinda guy faced with a tremendous challenge. And even though he gets beat down he always picks himself up again.

IGN.com posted the UK review of ‘Star Trek’ which is actually worth the entire read, but for those interested in what was said about Chris then you can see it below. Read the full review here.

Yet scriptwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, and of course Pine and Quinto who play the duo, succeed brilliantly in this aim and give the movie (and hopefully the ensuing franchise) its heart and soul. The pair are just perfectly cast. Pine looks and sounds nothing like Shatner, but gets right to the essence of Kirk’s character with his combination of rough-shod charm and cocky arrogance. The actor looks like just another product of Hollywood’s bland pretty-boy conveyor belt, but actually proves extremely charismatic and nails the part.

I’ve added 34 photos of Chris and the cast from the ‘Star Trek’ photocall at the Santo Mauro Hotel in Madrid, Spain from earlier today. I’ve also added one photo taken by visitor Francisco who had the chance to attend the premiere in Madrid. I was sorry to hear that Chris seemed to be in a hurry to get to his next destination that he did not stop to sign for the few fans who had been waiting. šŸ™
