While praising the work of Benedict Cumberbatch<\/strong>, cast as a villain in Star Trek 2<\/em>, Simon Pegg<\/strong> denies recent rumors about Cumberbatch’s role in the movie.<\/p>\n

Details of that rumor and possible spoilers will be behind the cut.<\/p>\n

Rumors had it that Cumberbatch had been cast as a rebooted Khan. “It’s not Khan,” said Pegg. “That’s a myth. Everyone’s saying it is, but it’s not.<\/p>\n

“…I think people just want to have a scoop,” said Pegg. “It annoys me – it’s beyond the point to just ferret around for spoilers all the time to try to be the first to break them.<\/p>\n

It just spoils the film. It masquerades as interest in the movie but really it’s just nosiness and impatience. You just want to say, ‘Oh f— off! Wait for the film!'”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
