I just heard some very disturbing news.

I pray this is not true.

What I heard chilled me to the very core.

Rumour has it, Robbie Williams has been lined up to play Captain James T Kirk in the latest Star treck movie.

I think a lot of Treckies will have plenty to say about that.

Robbie Williams has been in talks to star as Captain Kirk in an upcoming Star Trek movie, according to reports.

The 'Angel' singer voiced Dougal in animated movie Magic Roundabout in 2005 and has been offered a number of film roles ever since.

So far he has turned down a series of parts, but he is said to be a big Star Trek fan and is keen to revive Kirk.

Lost creator JJ Abrams said about him: "I think he'd be quite a good Captain Kirk. The Kirk in my movie is quite young, it's the early years."
