TrekMovie.com has posted a new interview with Star Trek co-writer Roberto Orci. Here are just several clips from the great interview:
TrekMovie.com: So I understand you recently completed the second big draft of the script. How different is this one from the original?
Roberto Orci: It is better. It is tighter. The villain is much better; in a first draft you tend to focus on your heroes. And I got to say that a lot of the things we read on TrekMovie.com contributed to the second rewrite.
TrekMovie.com: What about Bones? The Kirk/Spock/McCoy troika is also quintessential Trek, with McCoy being the counterpoint to Spock and Kirk in the middle.
Roberto Orci: That is a big part of what we are doing. You are correct that their interaction and how they face the impossible is what Trek is about and that is no different in our movie.
