For all those who grew up watching Captain James T Kirk and Mr Spock there’s great news in the new Star Trek movie that’s out next year.

Unlike the slower and old-school films in the franchise, in keeping with the times, this version promises to be a fast paced dark action-packed thriller.

The film directed by J J Abrams explores the early Starfleet careers of future Enterprise officers Kirk, Spock and Scotty. Leonard Nimoy who played the original Spock also makes an appearance.
