Star Trek 2 Spock Photos with Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto

It was previously believed that no former cast members from the old Star Trek franchise would be appearing in director J.J. Abrams's upcoming sequel Star Trek 2. New images from the set have rendered this information null and void, as both Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto were spotted in their respective Spock outfits. Producer Roberto Orci tweeted these photos direct from the deck of the Starship Enterprise, on a sound stage at Paramount Studio, and he also included a photo of a Star Fleet janitor (actually one of the producers on the first movie), along with a pic of J.J. Abrams and Roberto Orci doing on-set rewrites. Check them all out below.

    Nimoy looks so old. Makes me feel old too. Still he rocks! Glad he's still out there though. It's good to see him still putting the ears on again!

    Honestly, all these pics look like the could've been taken from the first one, and with Spock's ship being destroyed in the first one, how does the first photo fit in?

    Interesting given Nimoy said he'd never play Spock again last year... the shot of him on set looks like it could be from the previous Trek film when he was in his Vulcan ship. Also interesting that the MacBook Pros in the shots are circa 2008 models by the looks of it. Are these really new pics???? :)

    even the behind-the-scenes photos have lens flare.

    Nimoy is NOT in Star Trek 2! That pic is from the first movie. NOT THE NEW ONE!
    Unsure of the rest though.

    Don't know how I feel about this. Feels somewhat repetitive, but I'll be optimistic for now.

    I'll bet anything with Nemoy always stating that he is retired, that the only way Abrams got him for this movie was that old Spock had to be killed off, ala Wrath of Kahn.

    Nice to see Nimoy back. And good to see they're underway.
