During a coversation with
TrekMovie.com, co-screenwriter of the
Star Trek sequel let one spoiler slip past his lips. He informed the site that Bruce Greenwood's character, Captain Christopher Pike has been written into the script. Now, one of the interesting things is that Greenwood didn't not have an option in his contract for the sequel and it would require the actor signing back on to make it work. According to
TrekMovie.com the actor has previously said in the past few years that he would be open to returning.
It's safe to assume that Bruce Greenwood will sign on for the sequel, but instead of being Captain, he'll be an Admirl. Which is the rank he was given at the conclusion of JJ Abrams first
Star Trek.
Commenting here at TrekMovie.com yesterday, Star Trek sequel co-writer/producer Roberto Orci let a little sequel tidbit out of the bag with this comment:
Bob Orci: Spoiler alert! We wrote a part for Greenwood. Let us hope he says “Yes!” - TrekMovie.com
