Paramount’s trickling out tiny teasers to keep our interest piqued, first a poster, then that awesome trailer, and now Benedict Cumberbatch locked up in the brig. Something tells me, by the menacing distain for Kirk written across his face, he’s not going to stay there for very long.
We still don’t know a heck of a lot about him, but apparently he’ll be called ‘John Harrison’, which doesn’t mean anything to me. I still reckon we might see something of the Wrath of Khan here, but I guess we’ll have to wait to find out. We do know Cumberbatch is, or once was, Star Fleet, so read into that what you will. At any rate, he looks like he’s going to be an awesome bad guy, though possibly not on the same scale as Javier Bardem (can anyone out-creep that guy?). [ComingSoon via TotalFilm]

“A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.”
Atonement is definitely Cumberbatch at his creepiest.
“You’ve got to BITE IT!”
since when was kirk an emo in skinny jeans…….
Star Trek uniform was intended to be streamlined, clean. It’s the future, an ideal one.. Don’t dirty it with silly “emo” generalizations.
Besides, how could you be considered emo in skinny jeans, if they’re uniform? Slim-fit trousers had existed long before, and I imagine were part of many uniforms.
Theres a huge fucking difference between slimfit and skinny jeans. Those are fucking skinny jeans.
The expletives are merely to emphasize my dislike for skinny jeans.
This.
Im expecting them to cut themselves and listen to Barry Manilow in the next scene.
exactly, i have slim fit trousers etc and they just make them look smarter and more expensive normally. However those are basically River Island skinny jeans… for emos…
I think they’re going for the cavalry officer look there. These days only Italian policemen can pull off that look…

I think, Cumberbatch could easily out-creep him.
I’m a big fan of Sherlock.. He’s very dynamic, mainly intimidating, but borders scary at some points.. And somehow sustains a charm throughout. CAN’T WAIT to see his performance!
I am literally shitting badgers with excitement over this film. Literally.
Soooo, every time you go to the bog, you’re having a badger cull? Bill Oddie will be most displeased!
Bovine TB Alfred, its a scourge of the countryside as well as my Anus.
And that’s why you cough everytime you fart! And I thought you were just being polite by trying to cover it up.
If you find blood specks, best get it seen to, from either end.
Well you’d know, you’re the nurse of the group after all
X-x-X
Is “Bad guy gets captured by good guys but it’s all part of his plan” the in thing this year?
Well It worked for Loki and Silva!
But wait, it didn’t really work for them did it as they both lost out in the end.
But yeah, good catch!
It’s a long shot, but I’m going to guess that it doesn’t work out too well for Cumberbatch either
Well they’ve said it’s a reboot of the ST universe…it’d be a hell of a twist to have Kirk murdered in the second outing. And Cumberbatch beats the guy playing Kirk any day.
A famous historical John Harrison was a carpenter and clockmaker who invented the marine chronometer. If that helps.
There is a “John Harriman” in old ST, maybe it’s a typo
