First I have to say I liked "Lord of the Rings" and KU wasn`t bad in it - yeah, he did look nice as Eomer - but I never was a big fan of him. I wouldn`t like to see him in a Star Trek movie. First of all I wouldn`t like to see him as McCoy. I can`t see the similar between them. I think Karl Urban is far away from beeing sexy as Len was. The only actor I would accept to play McCoy would have been Gary Sinise.
---------- Tim to think about my own choices for a "new" McCoy ----------
Anyway my 1st choice for playing McCoy would be Guido Cantz. I know he isn`t an actor but a comedian --- with dark hair he would make a good De copy for me. He has some similar traits and his body language is the same. And my sister just told me she also thinks that they have maybe something in common.
2nd choice would be Matthias Opdenhövel (another NOT actor, I know). This guy is sooo cute!!! :p
Talking about my 3rd and last choice: Markus Schöffl (seems I have no actor in my mind). With the end of Let`s Dance maybe Schöffl could go to the USA now for beeing the new McCoy.
BUT because life isn't a musical request programme (do you say this in english?) I try to forget THAT hollywood movie. No idea why they make a copy of TOS. But it sucks!!!
