Karl Urban is the rare Star Trek (http://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/7-ways-star-trek-changed-world.html/?ref=YF&yptr=yahoo) actor who’s also a Star Trek fan. Some of the stars of the various series and movies have chafed at the idea of being associated with Trek for the rest of their lives -- because that’s what happens once you sign onto a franchise this big -- others have worked hard to distance themselves from it, and still others have embraced the Star Trek of it all by diving fully in to the convention and fan scene. Which is exactly what he did when I spoke to him the morning after Paramount’s big Star Trek Beyond Fan Event (read more about that here). Between Urban, his co-star (and Beyond co-scripter) Simon Pegg and director Justin Lin, it looks like Star Trek Beyond is a Trek movie being made by actual fans.
