Trek 2 villain is not Khan

[The Bat]

I'm hoping he's playing Gary Mitchel!

[Megotu]

Heh...mebbe he's gonna be Sybok heh heh heh

[MIB41]

Wonderful news! Wrath of Khan will always go down as one of the classic Trek films of all time. A reboot needs to look elsewhere for inspiration.

He's a pretty amazing actor but Mudd would be something of a waste for him. Plus he's like "David Bowie skinny"....

Just as glad. They need to leave Khan alone. They've done everything with him that can be done (IMHO). Let's get someone fresh and new for Kirk and Co. to tangle with. I've heard rumours that this guy MIGHT be playing Harry Mudd, which would be cool as a supporting character, but I could never see Harcourt Fenton Mudd as a big-screen villian at all...

Benedict Cumberbatch has been cast as the new villain, I think that puts Khan rumours into suspended animation.
