IGN Movies also has an update on some of the other recently rumoured candidates – Matt Damon as Captain Kirk, Adrien Brody as Spock, Gary Sinise as Bones – for the film, suggesting one of them is ‘this close’ to signing on.
Webby genius ‘Stax’ (another $10 bucks mate) says, “We were told that Sinise is close to being cast, with the main issue right now being how to juggle the Trek shoot with his CSI: NY schedule. As we previously reported, McCoy will have a small role in the film, which will focus on Kirk and Spock's first adventure together (it is not, we hear, a Starfleet Academy story). Brody is also said to be close to signing on but until everything is inked, no casting can be called a sure thing.”
The site also reports that the movie, set to lens in October, is taking up 5 soundstages at Paramount – largely being used as alien locations.
