Matt Damon as Captain Kirk?

Tagged as:

No, it's not official. Just wishfull thinking on the part of the writer of the next Star Trek movie, tentatively titled (get this) Star Trek.

(From scifi.com.)

Personally I think they should cast unknown actors for the parts, but I do understand why they should get a 'big name' actor. They bring the people in. (Other than the Trekkers.)

I'm not sure who would fit the 'bill' (pun intended) for Captain Kirk. Matt Dillon, perhaps? No one really seems to fit.

Matt Damon as Kirk? Hmmm... Maybe not. He looks too juvenile for the part. Oh I like him as an actor, but I just can't picture him on board the Enterprise....

(On another note, this option below -- the Notify me of followup comments thingie -- is that a plugin?)

Hi, Blogie,

It's hard to pick a person for Kirk. That role is do defined by William Shatner.

(and it's a plugin... not sure which one at the moment, though.)
