In a follow-up to this article, White Jazz director Joe Carnahan has confirmed on his official Blog that Chris Pine has bowed out of that film in order to play Captain Kirk in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek at Paramount Pictures. Abrams is currently in post on the 1-18-08 monster movie.
Pine joins a cast that includes Zachary Quinto, Leonard Nimoy, Eric Bana, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, Zoe Saldana and John Cho. The studio is targeting a Christmas Day 2008 release.
Pine previously starred in the 2006 Lindsay Lohan movie Just My Luck. He played a neo-Nazi assassin in Carnahan's Smokin' Aces.
More importantly, Simon Pegg (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) will be playing Scotty and the original Milf hunter, John Cho (Harold and Kumar) is Sulu! This is one interesting cast Abrams has going on for the Enterprise.
