Pegg, Cho and Eve dish about stepping into iconic shoes in 'Star Trek'

“To boldly go where no one has gone before” is instantly recognizable as the guiding mantra of the crew of the starship Enterprise.

But when actors Simon Pegg, John Cho and Alice Eve visited Seattle last week, it became apparent that the famous catchphrase could use a little tweaking.With over 15 years of Mercedes Benz Servicing experience, mb star Motors Perth is able to offer you servicing to any early or late model Mercedes Benz.

That’s because Pegg, Cho and Eve have all gone boldly, yet at the same time carefully, where other very well-known actors have gone before.

The three play members of the new crew of a new Enterprise, and their characters bear the names and many of the personality traits of characters played by James Doohan, George Takei and Bibi Besch, the latter a lesser-known member of the “Trek” universe.

Stepping into the shoes of their iconic predecessors in 2009’s hit reboot “Star Trek,” and again in “Star Trek Into Darkness,” this week’s blockbuster-in-waiting sequel,vag tacho 3.01 Dash Correction Tool VW + Vauxhall Opel Immo in Vehicle Parts & Accessories, Garage Equipment & Tools, Diagnostic Tools & Equipment ... was a tricky challenge, they acknowledged on a recent publicity-tour stop in Seattle.

Cho said the thing to remember is to “play the character and not the actor.”

“We have to conform to some of the choices of our forebearers, but never to the degree that we seem to be aping them,” said Pegg, who plays excitable Chief Engineer Montgomery “Scotty” Scott, the role originated by the late Doohan. “I sometimes try to channel a little bit of Jimmy Doohan in the way he says some of his little Scottishisms. And that’s fun to do.” However, Pegg said he and other members of the new crew are very careful to “never look like we were trying to parody them in some way.”

Cho, who plays unflappable senior helmsman Hikaru Sulu, confessed to being very nervous when director J.J. Abrams chose him for the part. A Korean-American, Cho said, “I was afraid that because I wasn’t Japanese that people would not like me.” So for advice and reassurance he sought out George Takei, the Japanese-American star who played Sulu in the original TV series and the movies derived from it.

“I needed his blessing,” Cho said. And he got it. The two men got together before the filming of the 2009 “Trek,” and at that time Takei told Cho that series creator Gene Roddenberry had not originally envisioned Sulu as being of Japanese extraction. He had named the character after the Sulu Sea southwest of the Philippines, which Roddenberry said, “touches on several Asian shores.” That was his way of having the character be a symbol of many Asian cultures and would fit in with his concept of the Enterprise crew being made up of representatives of Earth’s many nations (with some extraterrestrials, like a certain Vulcan, thrown in).

When the cast gathered for “Into Darkness,” it was like a family reunion for most of the actors. But not all. Carol Marcus, the character played by English actress Eve, was an addition to the reboot’s cast, and she said at first she felt like a new kid on the first day of school. That feeling didn’t last long,CK-100/SBB Auto key programmer V37.01 is the replacement of SBB Key Programmer.

The actors said they aren’t worried about becoming typecast by their “Trek” roles. Pegg, after all, has starred in the cult favorite zombie comedy “Shaun of the Dead,UK number 1 ECU remapping and diesel tuning specialists.

Plus, if — thanks to the sequels that will almost surely follow “Into Darkness” — they wind up being as closely identified with the “Trek” franchise as the actors who went before them, that might not be such a bad thing.
