Gary Sinise in Talks to Play Leonard "Bones" McCoy!

My sources tell me that Sinise is going to play the mirror universe McCoy. I don't remember if mirror McCoy was racist or not.
 
In the mirror universe Leonard McCoy is a self-hating racist who despises Anglo-American culture.

Yeah, it was hard to tell because Mirror Uhura was so hot in that episode in her skimpy outfit.

Even racists can look the other way from time to time if the girl is hot enough.
 
I think McCoy will be so racist that Sinise will be forced to wear blackface in the movie. You can't get much more racist than that. Maybe when something scary or threatening crosses McCoy's path he can scream, have his eyes bug out and run away with the film speeded up as well.

. . .annnnd he'll have to be caught singing "I'm Sitting On Top Of The World" when no one is looking too..
 
err, just in case there are still people who are confused, read the date on the IGN article ;)
 
I think he would make a good recast of McCoy, but im not sure they shoudl be recasting the older versions of the characters.

Ironically, mirror-McCoy was NOT a racist.

Hmmmmm....

Any truth to those rumours about Matt Damon as Spock?

My sources say that Damon will not be in the movie, but that he will be advising Nimoy on how to play Spock (in a behind-the-scenes advisory capacity).

Gary Sinise is racist? Did he have a Michael Richards / Mel Gibson moment that I hadn't heard about?

He seems to have been pretty good about keeping himself in check publicly, but the five posters (so far) that voted he should not play McCoy because he is racist must know something that we don't know.

Stay tuned to this thread for more information.
