If the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise have been space cops in the past, they’re going to have a little help in their next outing. Deadline is reporting famed Robocop actor Peter Weller has joined the cast of the new Trek film. Though jokes about him playing a cyborg or a straight-up Borg drone have already started floating around the net, no confirmation yet as to what role Weller will be filling.
In other Star Trek casting news, J.J. Abrams has made clear that Benicio Del Toro will not be playing infamous genetically enchanced villian Khan. NOOO!!!! KHAAAAAN!!!!
So who will Benicio be playing? An old villian or a new one? And what about Peter Weller? Discuss!
