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.
Can you share some background on Jane? I really enjoy his stuff and would hate to have to stop recommending him.
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.
No, that’s disappointing enough. Thanks for the info!
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.
Murakami is a theatre actor who has worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company in the UK.
IGN has details and a photo.
Nice, thank you!
Thomas Jane seems the wrong age bracket to be playing Bones. Unless the finale is being told in flashback? Hopefully he’s not stepping off a holodeck a la Enterprise finale.
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.
I was just pointing out an observation.
But hey… full grown adults used to be normally cast as teenagers.
A time jump wouldn’t surprise me - IIRC, there were two three-month gaps in between episodes during season three.
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.
Scotty should be too though.
Of all the original main characters I accept having aged up actors, Bones is the one that I most easily accept.
That doesn’t mean I need or want to accept other actors being aged up just to match. Bones being played by someone a little older is not a huge deal.
Oh, I agree. I just think having more age appropriate choices for other characters would have been nice too.
Spock and Uhura seem to be roughly the right ages for the time the show is set. But Kirk is too old (the actor hides it well, lucky bastard) and Scotty far too young.
And McCoy makes no sense if cast too young given the nature of his personality, relationship to Kirk, etc. So, like you, I would prefer to go older as opposed to too young, like they did with Scotty.
I think it’s the inconsistency that bugs me.
Nah, Spock’s too young, vulcans age slow.
