Scotty Casting Bits

The casting of Star Trek's new Scotty is said to be heavily centered in London with the lastest name rumored to be 24-year-old Scottish actor Martin Compston (right). According to the UK's Daily Record, Compston says he has had callbacks, but has a lot of competition and may also look too young for the part.

Earlier last week, the Daily Record reported that friends of 38-year-old Scottish comedic actor Greg Hemphill (left) revealed that he had auditioned for the role.

Scottish actor James McAvoy (The Chronicles of Narnia) has also been long rumored for the part.
