Zachary Quinto
Though there could be a couple more casting updates during this year's Comic-Con for Star Trek XI, here is the first whopper. Though barely anybody of Zachary Quinto was before his role as Sylar in NBC's Heroes, the actor is ready to boldly go into another huge acting gig.
Beaming away from television, it looks as Quinto is in the process of boarding Star Trek XI as one of the quintessential characters.
Zachary Quinto the Next Spock
EOnline got an inside scoop that Zachary Quinto was most likely going to take the role of Spock in Star Trek XI. This scoop has now been confirmed, claiming that Quinto is in the final stages of signing a deal with Paramount.
Zachary Quinto's chances of being Spock in the upcoming Star Trek film are looking extremely good. I hear the deal is about to close. Best. Casting. Ever.
Update: Jen here. Following up on K.G.'s brilliant scoop, I checked with a source who confirms that the Zachary Quinto-as-Spock contract is with the business affairs team at Paramount. Business affairs is generally considered the last stop on the deal-negotiation train. The deal only awaits sign-off from outside counsel. Squee.
Quinto, the great Sylar, as Spock? I like it! He might, however, need to wax down his ginormous eyebrows.
Add to Heffee!
