It’s not often we report flat out rumours here at TF Towers, but this one, which originated with the boys at CHUD is mere nanometres from being confirmed.
Rumours broke at the CHUD site a while ago that Zachary Quinto, best known for playing the scalp-slicing, superpowered villain Sylar in Heroes, would be taking an altogether more heroic role for director JJ Abrams in the new Star Trek film.
