  Ehhh… Thomas Jane turned out to be one of those “you can’t say anything anymore” types in recent years. Not thrilled.

  The internet seems to know exactly nothing about Kai Murakami.

    Murakami is a theatre actor who has worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company in the UK.

    IGN has details and a photo.

    Can you share some background on Jane? I really enjoy his stuff and would hate to have to stop recommending him.

      I admittedly didn’t look very hard, but this is what I found.

      Honestly, it’s such a word salad that I can’t possibly be mad about it, if only because I was unable to decipher what, exactly, he was talking about.

      The thing that stood out to me in particular was that he wasn’t above working with the Daily Wire on that one movie, I forget the name, it was basically Die Hard at a school. Could be worse, yes, but I’ve become wary of him.

  Thomas Jane seems a bit old to be playing Bones.

  • hopesdead@startrek.website ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Only a decade older than Kelley was.

      TOS starts way after SNW, so the actor playing bones for this series should be younger than Kelley, not ten years older. Unless the finale takes place years later. We’ll see.

    He’s only ten years older than DeForest Kelly was in 1966. Of all the original main characters I accept having aged up actors, Bones is the one that I most easily accept.

      Scotty should be too though.

      In TOS, he’s clearly 10 years older than Kirk. In SNW it looks like it’s the opposite!

      And, to the extent that age of the actor implies the age of the character, Kelly and Doohan were about the same age.

    I would prefer if he did, and it turned out it was all a deranged fanfic by Regemont Barkley.

  And of course the cover picture is two random other actors…

    No, that’s them. I believe the caption is the photo credit.

      Oh okay, that’s extremely confusing x)
