Star Trek 3

Speaking to Digital Spy in a video interview, Simon Pegg says William Shatner will only return as Captain Kirk if it makes sense for the movie’s story:

William Shatner is an amazing actor, and has such an incredible body of work which transcends his time as Captain Kirk. It’s always about whether the story’s right. It’s pointless crowbarring these things in as a gimmick. That does the story and the film a disservice. I have no doubt in my mind that [Shatner] could play Captain Kirk until the day he goes off to the final frontier.


Some took these remarks to mean that the door remains open for Shatner to return — but commenting on Reddit, Shatner himself said, “I love how so much speculation occurs reading into one line in an interview.”

In that same interview, Pegg also says his recent comments about Roberto Orci’s script having been rejected for being too “Star Trekky” doesn’t mean his own script won’t be “Star Trekky” as well — saying, “This Star Trek will be as much Star Trek as it can be.” [via Comic Book]

Doctor Who

Carole Ann Ford, who played original companion Susan, discusses visiting the set (and Peter Capaldi’s desire for her to return to the show):

“They invited us to the studios in Cardiff [during the filming of Last Christmas]. It was great. It was lovely to meet Peter [Capaldi]. A lovely man. I had seen some of the performances he’d done as Doctor Who, and I didn’t like the way they wrote him at the beginning. I thought, ‘What’s going on here? Give him a chance!’ They portrayed him as someone who was so prickly.” “He started saying, ‘Oh, you should come back!” Ford continued, “’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’d love to come back!’ He was running around the TARDIS saying, ‘She’s got to come back! She’s got to come back!’” Would she be interested in coming back, then? “Yeah, of course! Are you kidding?” she said.

Outlander

Tobias Menzies discusses the fallout of Jamie’s rape in the season finale:

“Sam and I both felt that it couldn’t just be the fact that I f—k him,” Menzies says. “That wasn’t enough.” In addition to the physical violence depicted during the hour, the mind games Randall plays with a wounded and disoriented Jamie make for “the most complete recitation you’ve seen so far of Jack’s sadism, really,” Menzies says. “It’s the tenderness, the precision, the emotion, the lovingness of it, which makes it more chilling.”
