In an entertaining LA Times interview, the former Captain Kirk bums coffee from a reporter, signs autographs, and explains why he doesn't know anything about the upcoming J.J. Abrams Star Trek remake: "There is no need for me to know anything because I'm not a part of it. They will have an extraordinary campaign when it comes about, and my dear friend Leonard will be part of that and I would have loved to have been there with him. I am very happy for Leonard, my good friend, though."
