Rama’s SCREEN

Tyler Perry in STAR TREK

tyler perryActor/Producer/Writer/Director… did I miss anything?… all that Tyler Perry who started as a playwright and took his stories to the big screen, he is one of the most successful Hollywood persona today, gaining fame and fortune and with movies that have good moral family message (Madea movies, Daddy’s Little Girls, Why Did I Get Married?) he’s also gained huge fanbase, those of us who love feel-good movies once in a while. I admire a person who after becomes a millionaire still hasn’t lost his or her integrity.

Tyler Perry will be in a movie that’s not his own for the first time ever…. apparently someone named J.J. Abrams is a fan of his work or maybe it’s Tyler Perry who’s secretly been a Trekkie all his life? Who knows? But according to UGO, Tyler will be in the new STAR TREK Movie about the crews of Starship Enterprise when they were young.

The article goes on explaining that they have filmed Tyler Perry’s scene a while back. Apparently the scene involves a courtroom/assembly where the young Captain Kirk is facing expulsion from Starfleet Academy for “cheating” on one of his critical tests. Tyler Perry plays the head of the academy overseeing the assembly.

You wouldn’t believe who snitched/ratted on young Kirk?

BTW, STAR TREK first teaser will be shown in front of the movie Cloverfield on January 18th.
According to UGO, Cloverfield director Matt Reeves had seen the teaser trailer was very amazed, he said:..

“That’s what excited me about seeing the trailer, was that I thought ‘Well, this does look completely different and new,’” he marveled. “But while having all the stuff that will make fans of ‘Star Trek’ still feel fulfilled.”

Not that I’d know what that “all the stuff” consists of.. but I’m sure you Trekkies out there would have a field day over this. And I’m not just talking about those who are so into this stuff that they don’t know how to talk to girls.

I’m also talking about you Star Trek fans who are not open about it because you have to act adult now, but you have a hiding place for Star Trek shrine stashed away somewhere in a secret room in the basement…
repressed childhood memories that are just aching to explode when the new movie arrives December 2008.
