Michael says
It’s a tough choice. I just don’t know who can step into the Shat’s shoes and do the role of Kirk justice…
lisa in Indiana says
I’m not enough of a TV watcher to know who any of these people are! I would like to see Nathan Fillion have at it, but I know that won’t happen….
Keith aka Mr. Wall says
I’d vote for Emile Hirsch if he was on the list but he’s not so I went with Thomas Dekker
Icepick says
My 13yr-old daughter says that it should be Patrick Flueger (Sean, from 4400). Since we know that is the target demo for all of Hollywood, that’s definitive.
Brian (Arkle from the Forums) says
I’d go with Hartley. He was great as Oliver Queen on Smallville, and he’s also very nice in person.
Margaret_32955 says
Kyle Schmid, hands down. His work on Blood Ties has been fantastic. Blood Ties is on hiatus for the moment but you can go to Lifetimetv.com, register and see his work on the videos they supply.
Tal says
I agree with lisa – I would love nothing more than to see Nathan Fillion take this on!
Sam says
While Nathan sounds good, I’m afraid he’s just a tad beyond that 20 something age group that JJ is looking for. That is why the most likely candidate, Matt Damon, was told by JJ that he wasn’t chosen for the part as well.
justme says
Does it say something about my NOT being in the target demographic that I don’t recognize any of those names?
I feel old.
Sam says
Don’t feel bad Justme….if I wasn’t on the news end of this industry I doubt I’d know who most of them were either. 😉 But, these are your next batch of rising stars and future superstars.
Carrie says
All I saw was Justin Hartley — after that there was no contest…
Terri says
I picked Justin Hartley. He is an amazing actor, and he would make an awsome Kirk. I don’t normally watch Star Trek, but I would if he were on there.
harry says
i picked justin hartley because simply put he looks more like shat than any of the others…more non-listers i’d pick: ben mackensie from the o.c., nicholas brendon from buffy the vampire slayer, chad michael murray from one tree hill, and justin timberlake.
Jeremy from Seattle says
I picked Justin, but I’d have to see Tom as a Blonde or with lighter brown hair. I was suprised that he is only 2 years younger than me, i totally thought he was way younger. Dude’s all 30 and stuff.
Carston Lockwood says
Um…Where is Nathan Fillion’s name??
If they want this to be a surefire hit then hurry up and cast this guy already!!
