Chris Pine, the galaxy awaits.
That's what I want to know. Cuz I'm looking at him and I'm not really seeing it. I could be wrong — this young man has been a leading man before, starring in illustrious films like Just My Luck with Lindsay Lohan. I should cut this guy a break. He could be great. His name is Chris Pine and he's landed what could be the role of a lifetime as that great gallactic leader, that great wooer of women, Vulcans, Ferengi and non-carbon life forms — Captain Kirk.
The film, to be released in December '08, will chronicle the early years of the Enterprise crew — way back when they were young, idealistic cadets at Starfleet Academy. The rest of the cast has been named as well — Lord of the Rings actor Karl Urban will play Leonard "Bones" McCoy, and Eric Bana will play some new bad guy named Nemo.
