Heroes' Sylar to Play Spock
What an interesting casting choice! Jeremy Quinto, who played Sylar on Heroes, has been tapped to play the young Spock in the upcoming JJ Abrams Star Trek movie, which focuses on the earliest adventures of Kirk and Spock. The article I've linked below also lists Cate Blanchett and Shia LeBeouf as attached, but roles are not specified. A logical guess would be that LeBeouf will play the young Captain Kirk, but we'll see. I guess the Matt Damon thing is dead.
