Recast TOS Characters in the STD-Verse

Quinto would be weird, they've already recast his father Sarek for STD.

We really need to find an excuse to get the other two Chrises into the show somehow, so that Trek can have the complete set.

Todd Haberkorn already does an amazing job. Just hire him, because in all frankness, I can't see a Hollywood actor doing so well as a fan actor at mimicking such a classic character.
He looks like he'd make a better Dukat than Spock.
I'd rather an actor do his own take rather than just mimick the previous actor(s)
 
Temuera Morrison as Commodore Stone

Eric Peterson (Oscar from Corner Gas) as Samuel T. Cogley

Vaughn Armstrong as...hell, I don't care who he plays, just get him on DSC already :scream:

(About that, actually...
Vaughn Armstrong returns as Admiral Forrest, who is revealed to be FLINT from "Requiem for Methuselah"
)

David Tennant as Scotty

Sam Waterston as John Gill

George Takei as Admiral Nogura

Jesse Plemons as Capt. Matt Decker

Tom Hanks as Capt. Ron Tracey

@Amaris as Captain Koloth :devil: ;)

I might as well contribute to the actual topic:
- Tahmoh Penikett as Capt. Pike
- Torrance Coombs as Spock
- Katharine McPhee as Number One
- Jesse Rath as Garison
- Robbie Amell as Jose Tyler
- Gary Sinese as Phillip Boyce
- Juliet Goglia as J.M. Colt
 
Some interesting suggestions here! As a practical matter, though, who are we likely to see?

Pike, Number One, and Spock seem foreseeable enough, and there are some great suggestions for all of them. (I especially like the ideas of either Lauren Graham or Hayely Atwell as Number One, and Lee Pace as Spock. There are lots of possibilities for Pike; I remain agnostic!)

However, Alex Kurtzman has also recently hinted that we're liable to see "surprises" in the Enterprise crew. I'm open to suggestions as to who those might be, as offhand the only familiar character I can think of who might plausibly be active on the Ent in this period would be Scotty. Any others spring to mind?

So who might play Scotty? The only suggestion I've seen in this thread was David Tennant, and sorry, he's great, but IMHO he'd be all wrong for the part. Thing is, I don't have any better ideas of my own. Anyone?
