Peter "Robocop" Weller joins Star Trek 2 cast!

You knew him as "The Future of Law Enforcement", and he played the role for two movies. Now, via a report from Variety and Comic Book Movie, actor Peter Weller has been added to the cast of J.J. Abrams' next Star Trek Movie!

A veteran actor, thespian, and director, Weller, 64, is best known for his role as officer Alex Murphy/ Robocop, in the 1987 sci-fi cult classic film of the same name. Like recent addition Alice Eve, details about Weller's role in the next Trek film are still under wraps, but this is arguably both a surprise and welcomed addition, and I'm sure fans who remember Murphy will welcome this legendary screen presence with open arms. If you want a taste of his acting chops, here's a scene of him as Robocop in the final act of the movie!
