Greetings CBMers, MTV News was able to get a bit more out of Director J.J Abrams about the villain of the upcoming Star Trek sequel. While trying to dodge the question about the specific identity of said villain, Abrams was able to sneak in a few hints as to what we can expect from this new threat.
"The whole thing, not just his backstory, but his agenda, his plan, his secret, all that is what, for me at least, makes him such a frightening and cool villain," Abrams said. "Also, the real villains — when they're not just two-dimensional, angry vengeful types — don't see themselves as the bad guy. They are the good guy and have complete rationale and motivation"
Abrams continued...
"So true to form, the character that Benedict plays has an absolute sense of right and wrong, and he's on the right side."
Abrams stating Benedict's character is "on the right side" certainly makes things more interesting...but also adds more questions.
