Jack Black in Trek XII?

[Nardpuncher]

Aintitcool has a report form JJ Abrams that he has talked to Jack Black about being in the next movie. JJ said that he hasn't had any meetings with the writers of the movie in order to get ready for the next movie though.

Harry thought maybe he'd be Harry Mudd...but then he goes on to speculate that Black could play a member of the Q continuum!

If Jack can co-star in "The Holiday," he can certainly be in Trek.

He is versatile...



dare I say: Mudd?

 

[Squiggy]

Seems to be the antithesis of JJ wanting low key actors.

 

[Jeri]

I wonder if Jack is a Trek fan.

 

[Borgminister]

Jack as The Q?

Kind of gives me a queasy feeling...

Could just be for the main cast, Nero wasn't low key.

I have an mp3 of him singing the TOS theme, words and all.

 

[Falcor5]

He was great in the more serious role he had in King Kong. I could see him as a villain!

No, no, no, no, NO! As much as I like Jack Black, any future movies should take a cue from the success of Star Trek XI and cast relatively unknown actors with great talent and no previous baggage.

LOL words and all -- he hits those high ahhh ahhhh ahhhhh's...

Has Jack Blacks movies of late been funny? I know this is going back aways but I didn't think School or Rock was funny.

Well, then!

Good point about Bana, Phily B.

Baggage? What in the world are you blabbering about?

No words as in the ACTUAL words to the theme. The theme has lyrics, Gene made them up so he could get a cut of the fee from Courage which is why Courage never worked with Gene ever again after Season 1

LOL I was thinking when Squig said lyrics he meant "space final frontier"...but you're telling me Trek's theme song has lyrics !! I never heard of this before this very moment.....now if I only had a link...

Yeah...had not heard that one before.

As much as I like Black and would probably make an exception for him--I agree. Kind of like they should forget the old cast from here on out.

So you dont want any famous people at all in the new movie? So if Tom Hanks in an interview said he wants to be in the movie you would would be against it and not want him in it?

Jack Black... as... KHAAAAAAAANNN!!


"Oh, dude, from Hell's heart I stab at thee..."

Yes there were words. They were printed in one of the behind the scenes books (I think Captain's Logs).
