Zachary Quinto pays tribute to ‘Star Trek’ co-star Anton Yelchin

You’ve probably recently heard of the passing of Star Trek star Anton Yelchin in an automobile accident. While we don’t know how his death will affect his role as Pavel Chekov in the upcoming Star Trek Beyond, we’re hearing from one of his co-stars pay tribute to the actor. Zachary Quinto, who plays Spock in the new Star Trek movies, honors his friend Yelchin during a recent guesting on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Quinto and Yelchin started working on the Star Trek movies in 2007 and he has nothing but good words to say about the actor.

“We already know this’ll be a bittersweet experience with the loss of Leonard [Nimoy] but this has been absolutely devastating for all of us…,” Quinto says. “I think our goal has to be to just celebrate his incredible life and honor him as much as we can. It’s terrible loss not only to us personally but to the industry, audiences, he was such a talent.” You can watch the rest of the interview above.
