Chris Pine Talks Star Trek in Auckland
Chris Pine who plays Captain Kirk in a new more edgy Star Trek talks at the Auckland Premiere of the movie. Kiwi rd of the Rings star Karl Urban stars as Dr. Leonard ‘Bones’ McCoy also makes an appearance.
Karl has been in Shortland Street, appeared in Lord of the Rings and Xena Warrior Princess, a track that many Kiwi stars took to stardom (Zoe Bell, Lucy Lawless etc).
According to IMDB:
For filming the “Lord of the Rings” movies, he [Urban] realized that Eomer was a consummate horseman and he was nowhere near that level, so he invested a lot of time learning–six to eight weeks, five days a week, two hours a day. He wanted to learn to neck rein, a method of steering a horse using one hand while leaving the other hand free to wield a sword.
STAR TREK is a prequel to the original Star Trek. It chronicles of the early days of James T. Kirk and the USS Enterprise and therefore the crew is much younger than the team we know and love.
The film is directed by J.J. Abrams, produced by Damon Lindelof and Bryan Burk and written by Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman.

@Angela: Cheers and thanks for you comment. Indeed there are plenty of people who have followed this path to celebrity.
Well yeah, I was talking about the people from New Zealand who were in Xena.
I loved Xena, until they went weird with it at some point and made her evil. But the classic episodes, especially with Calisto, were awesome.

What do you mean? Xena used to be evil/a villain.
@Angela: I think what Kristi meant was there were some episodes when Xena had an alter ego who went to the dark side. After all didn’t Xena have a boyfriend (another Shortland St star Kevin Smith) Ares who she couldn’t let go of??
It’s a fantastic video, i enjoy it and me too love Xena!
Kiwibloke,
Yes Xena did have a boyfriend named Ares.
hehe very comic video thanks.
