First images from set!!!

Spoilers like WOW!

Even the title is a spoiler so head on down to the cut...


'Star Trek 2' Set Photos Show Benedict Cumberbatch Battling Spock


"Star Trek 2" is shrouded in secrecy. We don't have an official title, we don't know the plot, and we don't know who Benedict Cumberbatch is playing — though all signs point to a villain, especially in light of a new set photo that's just arrived at our door step.


In this first look at director J.J. Abrams' currently shooting "Star Trek" sequel, we see quite clearly that Zachary Quinto's returning Spock and the newcomer played by Cumberbatch are very much not friends. The two are locked in battle on top of what's being described as "a Space Barge set."

During the battle and in the photo you can see here, Spock does his best to stop his foe using his famous Vulcan Death Grip, but the move fails; Cumberbatch's character is able to overpower the grip and regain the upper hand in his struggle against the Star Fleet officer.

Interestingly, Spock is not the only one wearing a Star Fleet uniform. Cumberbatch's unknown character is seen wearing a black version of the uniform under his silver overcoat. A sign that this man was a friend before he was a foe?


In another shot from the epic battle, Zoe Saldana joins the fight once again as Uhura. She's using a phaser to save Spock from Cumberbatch's villain, though whether or not she'll be successful is a completely different story altogether.

Thanks to Eric Ford with On Location News for the awesome new photos!

I'm less than excited for the Uhura shot but I love the Spock battle going on here~

February 24 2012, 19:38:53 UTC 2 months ago

tbh I think Uhura looks a tad ridiculous trying to be badass while wearing an extra long t-shirt. I hope she isn't stuck in that mini dress the entire movie or she gets a pair of leggings for her uniform or something, idk.

Now I've calmed down (yeah right) let me address some things I'm reading around.

He's not playing Sybook, or a vulcan of any kind, he still has his eyebrows (I was looking for any change to eyebrows particularly as he would be a great vulcan).

From his hair (pointy sideburns anyone) I'd say he's a villain from within aka starfleet or maybe even Entreprise's crew. *gasp*

Finally, who the fuck cares about any of this? BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH IS BEING BADASS AND FIGHTING SPOCK AND UHURA. Week made.

As long as he is not Khan I'm just glad to have him on board!!!

I just can see how amazing Mr. Cumberbatch is and how amazing this movie will be!!!!
