Don't you just love the web? News traveling so fast, ideas extrapolated and speculated upon based on the simplest of facts. That said, here's a sweet little tidbit that I found amusing. Tom Cruise was spotted on the Los Angeles set of the new Star Trek feature film. He reportedly was visiting writer/director JJ Abrams. The two men, you'll recall, collaborated on Mission Impossible 3.
This exclusive, courtesy of JFXOnline, revealed that Tom stuck around the set for a couple of hours. Prior to this sighting, there had also been talk last fall that Abrams had wanted to enlist the superstar to make a brief cameo appearance in the revamped Star Trek opus, telling the story of how creator Gene Roddenberry's original characters came to be. How Captain Kirk made it out of the Star Fleet Academy (in The Wrath of Khan he said he cheated on his Kobyashi Maru simulation test), as well as the first time Kirk met the half-Vulcan, half-human Mr. Spock.
Tom Cruise's representatives Arnold Robinson, denied the rumors of his appearing in the film, and Paramount hasn't said much since pushing the opening for the film to May 2009.
I'd like to think that Cruise's visit -- which was more than just a hit-and-run "hello, how are you?'" -- means that he actually filmed a quick scene. After all, how cool would it be if he popped up in the feature. I'm not saying they have to cast him in a big part, but couldn't he appear as a one of those anonymous redshirts that beamed down to a planet and wound up killed in the line of duty? I'd pay to see that. See, doesn't Tom look good in red?
