First Look at Kirk, Uhura, Spock and the Mysterious Nero

Written by Arya Ponto

Entertainment Weekly sneak peeked the first teaser poster for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek in their Comic Con preview issue. Although Paramount has almost no significant presence at the 'Con this year, with hopeful Trekkies and general Abrams followers disappointed at the absence of a Star Trek panel, they are at least going to give away the film's poster at the Paramount booth.

The catch is, they've divided the one-sheet into 4 character posters. Clockwise: the villain Nero (Eric Bana), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto). When you have all four, you can put them together to form a big poster with the Starfleet logo as pictured. You can only pick up one, I'm told, so if you want the complete poster you're going to need 3 friends who don't like Star Trek.

I gotta say, Pine and Quinto look absolutely dead-on, don't they? Chris Pine has that cocky look of the young Shatner down pat.

Now, this won't be the extent of Paramount's Star Trek presence, apparently. We know that Simon Pegg (who plays Scotty in the film) is going to be there to promote the Spaced DVD, and Zachary Quinto is also coming for a Heroes panel with his TV co-stars, but will the two of them participate in anything Trek related?
