Pine: 'No crazy sex in 'Star Trek'

Rex Features

Chris Pine has cleared up reports that J.J. Abrams's forthcoming Star Trek will feature a steamy sex scene.

The actor, who plays Captain Kirk, sparked the speculation last year when he said that the movie had been "sexed up for a new generation".

He also predicted that a scene in which co-star Zoe Saldana (Lt Nyota Uhura) takes her shirt off would "become famous".

However, the 28-year-old has clarified his comments to E! News, insisting that they have been taken out of proportion.

"It is a different Star Trek, but there's no crazy sex scene," he said. "There may be some bare midriffs, but you know it's been a long time since the bikini was invented, so I don't think we're going to ruffle any feathers."

Star Trek will open in the UK in May.
