There is of course hot new man about town Benedict Cumberbatch (or "Batchi-san" to his Japanese fans) as genetically engineered evildoer John Harrison. Simon Pegg is back as chief engineer Scotty, stealing some crucial scenes right from under the noses of heroes Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto). And bringing the count of female speaking parts to a whopping two is newcomer Carol, based on the character of the same name in 1982's "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" but reimagined as an expert in advanced weaponry, played by British actress Alice Eve.
