Leonard Nimoy Cameo in Star Trek 2?

An interview with Leonard Nimoy after the Enterprise final flight suggests that he might make an appearance in Star Trek 2. The idea isn't too far off since the original character is now stuck in the 2.0 Universe where the Vulcan population has been decimated by the previous movie's events. If you are Starfleet, you don't let that level of knowledge and experience just disappears into the sunset. In short, if Nimoy wants to do it, I doubt it would take much effort to write the needed scenes to explain why. Having said that, I doubt it will happen.

CNN: we were talking about the new Star Trek movie. It was great, you did a great job in it. And we were just about talking about that just before … will you be in another Star Trek movie?

Nimoy: Uhh, we’re talking. We’re talking.

CNN: Talking… [laughs] Hopefully.
