Even though JJ Abrams is taking it slow about getting into production of the next Star Trek film, Zachary Quinto has revealed that after the destruction of planet Vulcan Spock's relationship with Uhura could be in jeopardy.
"I would imagine - this is just speculative - his planet's been destroyed, he feels a real imperative to rebuild his race, But he's in love with a human. There's probably some potential conflict in that dynamic; I would not be surprised, and I would be intrigued and excited by that if that were the case."
Although Quinto hasn't seen a script, he is very excited to see who the next villian will be.
"I'm interested to see what the villain situation is," Quinto said. "What are we fighting against? What is our mission? That's going to be really cool for me. I'm really excited to see the direction in which they take my character in general.I'm excited to see when this movie takes place, in juxtaposition to when we ended the first one. Where do we pick back up? What's happened to the characters since then? My sense is, what's the dynamic like between Kirk and Spock? Is it all smooth sailing? I imagine that they're both so strongly willed, that there will be some continued friction... I'm just excited to read it and shoot it."
