“Dammit, Jim, I’m a doctor, not a detective!”
Have you heard about the forthcoming re-imagining of Star Trek�by Lost’s J.J. Abrams? The plans are rumored to involve recasting the legendary original series characters, and blogger Chris Beaumont had some fun with the idea, suggesting that along with Matt Damon as Kirk and Billy Zane as Spock, none other than Gary Sinise would make a great Dr. McCoy.
According to a an article this morning, Chris isn’t the only one intersted in the Matt Damon idea, so who knows? I think the Trek franchise couldn’t be in better hands, myself, and I’d love to see Gary don a tricorder and a totally different kind of labcoat.
