Star Trek Beyond<\/em>‘s Zachary Quinto<\/strong> has produced and is starring in the comedy Aardvark<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In Aardvark<\/em>, Quinto plays Josh, who “goes into therapy with a social worker named Emily (Jenny Slate<\/strong>). Josh suffers from an unusual condition that involves his envisioning his brother, Craig (Mad Men<\/em>‘s Jon Hamm<\/strong>), who is an actor, in various guises from a bag lady to a police officer. Then when Craig returns home to settle a real estate transaction, he ends up becoming romantically involved with Emily.”<\/p>\n

“This is ultimately a film about three people who are lost to themselves, and the only way they can find their way is through each other,” said Quinto. “Hannah [Sheila Vand<\/strong>] exists as this kind of ephemeral catalyst to bring them together in a way, to wake Josh up and allow him to get to a place where he can connect.”<\/p>\n

Quinto also spoke about therapy in the movie and the importance of therapy in real life.” I like what [therapy] explores about Emily,” he said. “I like this idea of a therapist who is entirely ill-equipped to help the patients she so desperately wants to help. But I also think it’s a question of how much of her motivation to help her patients is an endeavor to help herself. I think she realizes that she’s a little bit out of her depth with Josh, and yet she charges forward anyway. I like the dynamic of Emily and Josh, and Emily and Craig. It gets messy. It gets complicated.<\/p>\n

“I’ve been in therapy for over a decade. I love it. I think it’s [an] enormously powerful tool in life to go deeper and expand my understanding of myself and the world. I feel grateful to have the time and the resources to do it. I know not everybody does. I’ve taken advantage of that. I am deep in it. I’ve been with one therapist in L.A. for six and a half years, and then another for two and a half years, and a person I see here in New York for four years. For me, it’s important. I don’t think I’d be as available to my experiences and my relationships. Luckily, my therapists have all been really good.”<\/p>\n
