KINGSMAN Actress Sofia Boutella Lands A Lead Role In STAR TREK 3

Fresh from slicing and dicing her way through Kingsman: The Secret Service, the lovely Sofia Boutella will now join Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and the rest of the Enterprise crew in the still untitled Star Trek 3, which is being penned by Simon Pegg and directed by Justin Lin. Deadline reported the news, but have no idea what type of character Boutella will be playing; only confirming that it'll be a lead role. Thor: The Dark World's Idris Elba was recently announced as landing the role of the main villain, so perhaps she'll be an ally of his? We'll update if we manage to find out anything else about it.

Boutella can also be seen in Monsters: Dark Continent, and has two other movies (Tiger Raid and Jet Trash) currently in post-production.

agreed. I used to like him/his opinions but now he's just being rude/illogically weird about anything non-stop.

@jollem I thought you were just busting @rormachine balls as well after whoever made that comment previous.

but on to more important things. she's a cutey, but I have no idea if she can act, let alone speak English as I don't recall her saying much.

side note- finally got around to seeing 'kingsmen', verdict: AVERAGE

x men first class and kick ass we both better films. think I'm officially glad now that vaughn didn't do DOFP.

Singa, FTW

She was great in Kingsman and seemed like a great girl in her interview with Schmoes Know a few weeks ago. Good casting.
