It’s been a busy week for a certain young Vulcan. Zachary Quinto’s first effort as a producer, the Wall Street thriller “Margin Call,” in which he also stars, hits theaters on Friday. On the eve of the film’s New York premiere, Quinto acknowledged publicly that he’s gay for the first time. In our interview in Thursday’s newspaper, Quinto talks about the meaning of this moment to him, on a personal and professional level.

Quinto’s “Margin Call” role shares a lot in common with Spock — he plays a brainy young investment bank analyst. In November, Quinto said he’ll turn to a very different kind of challenge — readying for a major Spock action scene in J.J. Abrams’ long-awaited “Star Trek” sequel, which starts production in January.

“There’s a big sequence for me that I have to prepare for in this movie physically so I’m training, working on getting in some serious shape, building my cardio endurance, preparing to run a lot,” Quinto said. (more…)

I had a bunch of photo shoots settled here on my computer waiting to be added, mostly done in 2011 to promote Margin Call. They aren’t new to you, probably, but are new to our site:

Zach will be at next week “American Horror Story” and here’s the promo:

Actor-producer Zachary Quinto is in firm control of his world, with ‘Margin Call,’ his production company Before the Door’s first feature, set to premiere.

In late 2008, “Margin Call” looked like the kind of film project that could languish indefinitely: an unfinanced script from a first-time writer-director on a wonkish subject — the math behind Wall Street’s recent collapse.

Then Spock beamed in.

Zachary Quinto had just wrapped filming on J.J. Abrams’ reboot of “Star Trek,” playing the pointy-eared young Starfleet Academy commander, and his NBC show “Heroes” had a cult following. He had formed a production company with two drama school friends and was looking for projects, so he met “Margin Call” writer-director J.C. Chandor at the Fairfax Farmers Market on the recommendation of a mutual friend. (more…)

(Reuters) – Zachary Quinto, who made headlines this week when he said he was gay, is best known for playing Spock in the 2009′s “Star Trek” and for his role as the evil Sylar on the recent TV series “Heroes.”

The 34-year old actor has leveraged his fame to start his own production company, Before the Door Pictures, whose first film, “Margin Call” opens in theaters on Friday.

The film, in which Quinto also stars, boasts an all-star cast including Kevin Spacey, Jeremy Irons, Stanley Tucci and Demi Moore among many others. It takes place in an investment bank over a 24-hour period at the start of the 2008 financial crisis. Quinto spoke to Reuters about the film, reprising Spock for the “Star Trek” sequel and playing gay characters. (more…)
