Some advice for you: Get to know this Chris Pine guy. He's the lead in one of the summer's biggest movies, Star Trek. He was just named Star of Tomorrow at ShoWest in Las Vegas, where I caught up with him.

And earlier this week, a screening of his Trek flick was sprung on an unsuspecting audience in Austin, Texas (they thought they were seeing Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan), and the movie has been issuing massively good buzz ever since.

So the new face of James T. Kirk dishes to me about Trek sequels—already under way and, yes, he's locked in—as well as fetching yogurt for Leslie Bibb and learning from Roger Corman. Check the clip to get the full story!
