That's a shock. I guess I always think of her as a teenager.

Woah. Yes, she does seem young to be playing Spock's mother.

when an actor has an established career, it's hard to predict which role somebody might have recognized them from.

This is what I found at MSNBC.com

Winona Ryder Joins 'Star Trek'
Nov. 9, 2007, 11:58 AM EST

By Michael Fleming
Variety

"Star Trek" is beaming up Winona Ryder.

Paramount Pictures and director JJ Abrams have set Ryder to play the Vulcan mother of a young Spock (Zachary Quinto).

Scripted by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, the film revolves around the Starfleet Academy days of the crew of the Starship Enterprise. Chris Pine has been set to play Capt. Kirk, Simon Pegg will play Scotty, Karl Urban is Dr. McCoy and Eric Bana will play the villain, Nero.

Ryder recently wrapped "The Informers," a Gregor Jordan-directed adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis novel, and the Geoffrey Haley-directed "The Last Word."

She is in pre-production on the Rebecca Miller-directed "Private Lives of Pippa Lee."

I have a hard time picturing Ryder as playing a "mother" too I still picture her in her good ol' days

Jennifer Morrison and Chris Hemsworth cast as Carol Marcus and Kirk's father, George Samuel Kirk Sr.

Interview regarding Bruce Greenwood being cast as Pike
Quote:
IESB: You're older than he was.

GREENWOOD: Well that was thirty years ago.

IESB: But it's a prequel!

GREENWOOD: Yes... (grins) So what?

IESB: Is there time travel involved?

GREENWOOD: I can't tell you. (Giant smile)

I wonder how many of these roles will end up cut for time or just be a quick scene?

It's hard to imagine Carol Marcus or Kirk's father having too much screen time. Or at least I hope the story is centered around the Enterprise and her crew.

I've never seen anything of "Star Trek", but if my Jenn is going to be on the new movie, I won't miss it Don't mind if she has only a couple of scenes

Of course you would have been welcome to post it here!

It will be interesting to have your perspective about the movie when it's released since you're not familiar with the franchise.

Yes it would.

Aroa, I think the new movie is going to be a fresh start , so it won't be like asking you to jump into the third season of a show.

Yes, the movie is supposed to appeal to established fans and newbies alike. Hopefully you'll enjoy it Aroa. I like Jennifer too, so I hope that she's in a few scenes.
