"I. would love. to be. portrayed. by Matt. Damon."

J.J. Abrams creator of Lost, Alias, Felicity, and director of M:I:3, is boldly going where he's never been before: outer space.

Abrams has officially signed on to do a "new" Star Trek movie about Kirk and Spock in their pre-bad-ass years. Rumor has it Matt Damon may be cast as Kirk. Sweet.
