Star Trek's - Eric Bana

Eric Bana is comfortable with tattoos. As the villain Nero in the new Star Trek, jagged intergalactic designs cover his face like armour. 'Hopefully I won't spark a trend,' he says. It is hard to square the tousle-haired Australian actor with Nero, the bald Romulan leader with large pointy ears and a warped, gravelly voice. The transformation took hours of make-up. 'It was so much fun,' Bana says. 'There you are in the make-up chair, freaking out. By the end of the first week it's very normal, and when the other Romulans took their make-up off, I didn't know how to take them.'

This Star Trek prequel, directed by JJ Abrams (Mission: Impossible III, Cloverfield), centres on the early years of Captain James T Kirk (played by Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto) and his crew, when the alien Romulan race attacks their Federation starship. For months, ardent fans – 'Trekkies' – have been anxiously waiting to see if Abrams and his team would keep the essence of the original Star Trek while appealing to a new, younger mainstream audience.
