Schedule permitting, Abrams, who also serves as executive producer and co-writer for the pilot, will make "Undercovers" the first TV pilot he has directed since 2004's "Lost" two-part opener, which is considered one of the best-directed pilots of all time and helped launch Abrams' career into helming such theatrical films as "Mission: Impossible 3" and "Star Trek." The NBC pilot has been described as a mix between "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and "The Bourne Identity." The original report is at the Hollywood Reporter.

ReelzChannel posted a new interview with actor Anton Yelchin, who will play the new Pavel Chekov in J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek movie. Here are a few excerpts from the article.
"I'm waiting to read the script, actually," says Yelchin. "I guess they're withholding that until they get casting done or whatever. I plan on... becoming as much of a Trekkie as a I can in the couple weeks before we start shooting - just renting all the box sets, not going outside, not seeing the sun rise, just having the shades drawn."
In the interim, he's sanguine about fan reaction. "Who knows, I may be (scared) later, because Star Trek is such a big thing that I hope I don't let anyone down, I hope everyone is satisfied with whatever. But then again, it's such a big thing that you can't please everyone," says Yelchin. "I look at all these movies like Spider-Man and stuff, and then I think of myself walking out of Spider-Man, saying, ‘Oh well, like, in the cartoon... when I was seven...' Everyone's got their own thing, and some people get very upset and take it personally. But the cool thing about it is if you just think about the fact that people have taken something so personally, it means so much to them. It's kind of a great thing to think about - that Star Trek and Spider-Man, or X-Men could mean so much to someone that they'd actually really take it seriously enough to criticize the hell out of someone because they don't fit their image. If I think about it that way, I'll take it less seriously."

In both Anton Yelchin and Zachary Quinto, JJ Abrams has managed to hire an actor who speaks in a manner that's beyond his years. Restoring intelligence to Star Trek, even at the thespian level.
Collider.com has just posted another clip from their video interview with Yelchin and Diane Lane.
The macs at Apple.com are streaming a trailer for Fierce People.
Yelchin to become a Trekkie? As said to his Fierce character, Finn...
"Welcome to the tribe, brother."
