{sidebar id=1}About a week ago when I was credentialed to cover the Cloverfield Premiere on the Paramount Lot I was pretty confident that cast of Abram's Trek would show up. Then a couple of days ago I received the tip sheet that confirmed my suspicion, the main cast was indeed scheduled to be there but would I get a chance to talk to them?

Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto were the first of the crew to arrive but from the get go, it was quite obvious that they were being kept away from the majority of the press with the exception of useless large networks such as The Insider, Access Hollywood, E.T. and E!. Yeah, they were playing it safe. We did manage to get pictures of them but that was pretty much it.

The good news is that we got to talk to Jennifer Morrison (Winona Kirk), Chris Hemsworth (George Kirk), Karl Urban (Leonard "Bones" McCoy), Bruce Greenwood (Captain Pike), John Cho (Hikaru Sulu), Anton Yelchin (Pavel Chekov) and Clifton Collins Jr. (Romulan Ayel).

Unfortunately Zoe Saldana, J.J. Abrams, Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto didnt make down to our area but dont fret since we still have some goodies for our fellow Trekkers.

I was warned by a few publicist friends from Paramount to play nice and not to reveal spoilers or try to get the actors to slip and reveal anything that could get them in trouble and I obliged. Man, was I biting my tongue, thats what I live for.

Jennifer Morrison talked to us about her audition process, the secrecy of this production, working with J.J. and her run-in with the Trek Paparazzi.

Chris Hemsworth on being the daddy of Kirk, pay attention to this interview, he gives up some minor spoilers, says he's working with Jennifer Morrison, I played nice and I did not follow through, my bad.

Karl Urban on his take on Bones, the secrecy of the project, the Enterprise and also his thoughts on the recent announcement that the Hobbit is on its way.

Bruce Greenwood, John Cho, Clifton Collins Jr. and Anton Yelchin on wearing their costumes for the first time, will Pike give Kirk some competition with the ladies and listen to John Cho try to say "Oh my" like George Takei.
