J.J. Abrams' fresh take on "Star Trek" is looking like it's gonna be huge, taking in as much as $75 million at the box office through the weekend. The film features a whole new cast of predominantly little-known actors taking over the iconic roles of James T. Kirk, Spock and the rest of the Enterprise crew. So which of these up-and-comers will be the movie's breakout star? Who will everyone be talking about on Monday? Will it be Chris Pine as the young and cocky Kirk? Maybe "Heroes" villain and brand-new Spock Zachary Quinto? Perhaps Zoe Saldana’s sultry Uhura, Anton Yelchin’s navigator Chekov, Karl Urban’s doc Bones, or Simon Pegg’s beam-me-up engineer Scotty.
A case can be made for any of them. But MTV News wanted to know what you had to say, so we sent our own Tim Kash into the heart of Times Square to get your take on who will be "Trek"'s breakout star.
You never know where secrets will be revealed, and such was the case when we received a pack of trading cards for J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek." While most of the cards featured scenes and characters we're well familiar with, a handful of them broke new ground. Along with a glimpse of Zachary Quinto giving the fabled Vulcan salute to none other than Leonard Nimoy, we also get new peeks at Karl Urban as McCoy, Eric Bana as Nemo, various starships including the Enterprise, and a broader view of Starfleet Academy.
