For those who may not have picked up on this yet, William Shatner is not in the new Star Trek movie, yet rumors and conjecture persist that maybe he is. But a new pair of interviews with both Shatner and Star Trek director JJ Abrams denying Shat is in the movie should be the final word on this saga.

TrekMovie previously reported that JJ Abrams has completed a first rough cut of his ‘Star Trek movie’ and now it appears that he is showing it off. ‘Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back’ director Kevin Smith was a guest on KROQ’s Kevin and Bean show this morning and the subject of the new Star Trek movie came up.

Clifton Collins Jr., who plays General Ayel, the right hand to Eric Bana’s Nero in the new Star Trek has finally come clean and said on the record what we have all been talking about for months.

Four months after wrapping principal photography JJ Abrams and his editors Mary Jo Markey and Maryann Brandon have finished their first cut for Star Trek. The next major step for the film is likely to be the release of the first theatrical trailer.

In several new interviews, actor Simon Pegg - of ‘Hot Fuzz’ and ‘Shaun of the Dead’ fame - discussed how he got the role of Scotty, his Scottish accent, his fellow Trek actors, being on the set with Leonard Nimoy (”Spock”), and breaking the curse of odd numbered Trek movies.
