Speaking to MTV, Zoe Saldana - who plays Uhura in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot and will reprise the role in the sequel - talks about her wanting Uhura and Zachary Quinto's Spock to 'get it on', saying that 'you want to see more of that love affair'. She also says that she wants to see Chris Pine's Kirk and John Cho's Sulu shirtless, as well as wanting Uhura to kick ass.

On the relationship between Spock and Uhura...
For some reason, I'm not like a mushy person, but I kind of want Spock and Uhura to get it on. Not in that sense, but you really want to see more of that love affair.


On what she'd want to see in the sequel...
Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) should definitely take off his shirt. Along with Sulu (John Cho). And I think Uhura should kick some ass.






Star Trek 2 hits theaters sometime in 2012/2013!

@l0rdleg0las Actually I disagree.. The direction they took where they showed that all the main bridge crew had something bad ass to offer, was a good move..

Also Spock and Uhura never had anything in the original series? I have to disagree with that also...

Also I want to add that even if they just had a flirtatious romance that never went anywhere in the original series, this is a new timeline, and their romance actually could have gone further in this timeline..

@l0rdleg0las- Look...I used to watch TOS too...but the Spock/Uhura thing isn't that bad...it's a brand new timeline people let's not forget that. Oh and btw- her name was Nurse Chapel. But it seems like she might not exist in this new alternate timeline.

I really don't want Uhura to play a big part in this film, she wasn't very Uhura-ish. The Spock romance thing is so out of place. Focus more on Bones, Karl Urban played him brilliantly.

@LP4 @l0rdleg0las I myself am completelyy against the Spock Uhura relationship. I much preferred the Spock - Nurse Chapel one because it was fun and you could see that nothing was gonna happen.

Also I think nurse chapel was in the background at the sick bay but nothing more.



What I don't like is that Uhura has a more prominent role than bones in these films and Spock is very un-Vulcan (remember he wouldn't even give up command in TOS when his father needed a blood transfusion) I would very much like to see this relationship end.

the relationship thing to me isn't that big of a deal like LP4^^ said its a different timeline. what i do have a problem with is the fact that we have to wait 2yrs for the sequel.

@l0rdleg0las- Yeah man, I've always said on this site, the best portrayals were- Urban and Pegg.

Simon Pegg REALLY did a great job with Scotty. But Urban was the best one, he literally became DeForest which was great.

Horrible horrible casting choice.. badly written too... no respect left for the character... too bad Holly Robinson or Halley Berry are too old.
