So what this film assured us, like the notion of Plato, where war becomes an exercise of the mind rather than an actual action on the Earth, is that if you can get to that point, if you can become friends and then just leave war for the video game players, the whole world would be a paradise. We're hearing all of this bad news, day after day after day. I always thought that the world was going that way, but unfortunately, it is not.Įxactly. When I was young I always thought that at the end of the world it's going to be happy and people are going to live happily ever after because they're going to find out about the secret of peace, how to live a peaceful coexistence. ![]() We ask for friendship and to make the world a better place. I think it's so true, that time will judge us all. I guess time will judge us all.” That is my favorite line in this movie. And then we found out that he was not a hero, but he was a traitor. Remember at the end (SPOILER AHEAD), I tell him, “We thought Balthazar Edison (a/k/a Krall) was a hero. It's not only a privilege, it's an honor, to be honest with you, to do that and to be a part of this, to be a part of an entity that wants and aims to bring peace to the world. How satisfying was it to play a part for which your ethnicity is a non-factor? Star Trek is all about embracing other cultures and peoples and species. What did you expect?” I said, “Well, some directors, you know, just sit back and they call cut or action,” and that’s it. You get involved.” He said, “Of course, I do. I told him, “You're an actor’s director and I love that. Justin Lin, what an amazing director he is. So it was very hard to film, or it could have been. Hit the mark, otherwise we're going to have to do it over and over and over again until we hit the mark because in normal films a little bit of difference, we can bear with it, but not in futuristic films or ones with a lot of CGI.” You have to land on the mark because they're going to take your picture and put it in a virtual reality, as we call it. And that's where we have to land, right on the spot. “This light will take us to a certain background. I'm talking about hundreds of meters of green curtains all around and hundreds of lights, if not thousands of lights, which were points of references. And all I could see were green curtains all around the walls. And, for most of my scenes, it was only gentle, amazing, lovely Chris Pine and I, just the two of us in a 2,000-square-foot, huge space. One has to be meticulous with these films because, literally speaking, they’re so big. Give us a sense of your experience on Beyond… You came in on Beyond when they shot additional scenes, and you worked just a couple of days in California, whereas most of the film was shot in Canada. So, now, to be in a Star Trek movie? It’s amazing. But my brother who is two years younger than me, he would explain to us what was going on and what we should be expecting. He used to tell us that what they meant by saying, "Now we're doing this," because we couldn't understand the technical terms. He's an Oxford-educated architect now, and he lives in London. And everyone wanted to come with me to the premiere. ![]() My daughter kept asking me about working with Chris Pine. How excited is your family about you being in Beyond? It made you look to the sky and wonder, “What if one day we're going to go to space? What if one day they're going to create a spaceship, how would it look?” And you know how your imagination flies when you're young, right? It boosted our imagination. And also, when you're kids, your imagination is huge. Like I say, it wasn't complicated for us. And then after Flash Gordon came this one, Star Trek. And that basically started with Flash Gordon when we were kids. It wasn't beyond our education or above our heads. What we loved about it, my brothers and I, was not only that it was futuristic, but also that we could understand it. You grew up watching Star Trek: The Original Series in Iran, in Farsi, right? ![]()
