Leonard Nimoy<\/strong> may have thought he was finished with acting, but it’s hard to pass up a good role.<\/p>\n

First it was a chance to replay Spock in J.J. Abrams<\/strong>‘ reboot of Star Trek<\/em>, and now Nimoy will be appearing in a recurring role on Fringe<\/em>. “I’m in a state of shock,” said Nimoy. “I don’t know how it happened. I’m asking myself: How do these strange things happen to a life when you’ve made your plans and things change?”<\/p>\n

Nimoy will be playing Dr. William Bell on Fringe<\/em>. He is already having fun with the role. “I’m enjoying it,” he said. “It’s intriguing. It’s thought-provoking. The work is good. The scripts are interesting and multi-layered.”<\/p>\n

Nimoy has done two episodes of Fringe<\/em> so far. “I think I will do at least one more, and then we’ll see what happens,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
