Chief Medical Officer of the USS Enterprise
Completing the iconic Star Trek: The Original Series trio, Karl Urban plays Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy in Star Trek (2009). Urban's McCoy evoked the spirit of DeForest Kelley's portrayal while still allowing him to put his own spin on the character. In Star Trek (2009), McCoy meets and becomes friends with James T. Kirk at Starfleet Academy, and reluctantly smuggles Kirk onboard the Enterprise so that he can participate in the fight against Nero. Urban is best known for his roles in theLord of...

Helmsman of the USS Enterprise
John Cho plays Hikaru Sulu, taking over the role originated by George Takei in Star Trek: The Original Series.

Cho has also starred in Ugly Betty and the Harold & Kumarfilm franchise.
USS Enterprise's navigator
Anton Yelchin's Pavel Chekov and his Russian accent added humor to Star Trek (2009). The youngest Enterprise crew member, Chekov also acted in a mostly supporting role to the film's main storyline, while still providing the chance for some callbacks to Walter Koenig's Chekov in Star Trek: The Original Series. Yelchin is also known for Green Room, Hearts in Atlantis, and Huffbefore his untimely death in 2016 at the age of 27.
Star Trek 2009's time-traveling Romulan villain
Eric Bana portrays Star Trek (2009)'s villain Nero, a 24th-century Romulan bent on revenge for the destruction of his home planet. Nero is one of only a handful of original characters created for the movie, and like Spock Prime, is from Star Trek's Prime Universe timeline rather than the film's alternate universe. Bana's most well-known roles were mainly in Australian cinema, but the actor gained wider recognition when he starred in Hulk(2003).

Collins Jr.'s other credits include The Last Castle, Capote, Pacific Rim, and Thief.
