Leonard Nimoydefendsthe newStar Trekmovie universe: “I think the alternate universe was necessary. I think it was a very solid idea and necessary because, although it broke canon in a certain kind of way, if they didn’t do the alternate universe, they would have broken canon in other ways. It was constricting. There was so much history to be dealt with that if they did not do the alternate universe it would have been so constricting and it would have been very, very difficult to tell an exciting story without stepping on some toes somewhere. So, by doing it this way, I think they gave themselves a new canvass to work with. I think it was a very wise idea.“Check outthe movie posters forJulian Schnabel’sMiral, starringFreida Pinto.Kung Fu Panda 2willopenthe Taormina Film Festival.

As to my own relationship to it, I can’t really say anything about that, at all, other than I’m just proud to be on the team.
