I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they'll make another one.

Someone once said "Don't try to be a great man. Just be a man, and let history make its own judgements."

Don't get me wrong-I'm very thankful for all the aliens I've met and loved.

No, the type-casting didn't happen until after Star Trek. I don't think that you get typecast until you've been cast!

I think I'm a better director than I ever was an actor. I'd love to go back to acting, but nobody seems to want me.

I think that I've been pigeon-holed by virtue of the fact that I've spent so much time in front of a green screen.

I'm sort of in for a penny, in for a pound with Star Trek, It's my life at this point. To deny it would just be foolish.
