Star Trek': a long, prosperous L.A. premiere

Photos of stars at the premiere of the 2009 Star Trek movie.

TAKE A good look: Actor Zachary Quinto might not be familiar to you, but soon you'll know him as Mr. Spock, entertainment's most famous Vulcan. Quinto takes on the role in the 2009 "Star Trek" movie and was seen at the Los Angeles premiere.

ANOTHER RELATIVE unknown, Chris Pine, plays Adm. James T. Kirk. If you haven't guessed, this version of "Star Trek" has a cast that's almost entirely made up of young hotties. But we'll get to that in a minute.

THE ORIGINAL Spock, Leonard Nimoy, reprises his old character in the new film. Here, seen with his wife Susan Bay, Nimoy delivers the Vulcan salute. The new movie opens May 8.

... AND SETS off a chain reaction starting with former Mr. Sulu, George Takei (right, with his partner Brad Altman) ...

... SIMON PEGG ("Scotty," though we'll love him best as Shaun of the Dead))

... KARL URBAN ('Bones McCoy') ...

... AND EVEN German supermodel Heidi Klum. (Hey, she works it!)

OK, BACK to the young hotties. John Cho ('Sulu') was on hand. He's the half of 'Harold & Kumar' that isn't going to work for the White House.

ZOE SALDANA ('Uhura') strikes a pose.

ERIC BANA plays a bad guy, Nero ...

WINONA RYDER plays Amanda Grayson, the young, human Spock-mama.

ANTON YELCHIN and his character, 'Chekov,' share a birthplace: Russia.

OTHER STARS who were 'Enterprising' enough to attend the premiere include Nicolette Sheridan, wearing what appears to be a Starfleet-inspired dress.

HAYDEN PANETTIERE is Zachary Quinto's fellow castmate on the show 'Heroes'; she turned out in support of her buddy.

MICHELLE MONAGHAN boldly goes where other starlets won't go: a bright pink dress.

KENDRA WILKINSON showed up to blow kisses to the crowd.
