Who is Nurse Christine Chapel?

i dont know if we would see her since she originally tagged along to find out what happened to colby.
 
She went to Columbia University Medical School to be trained as a Nurse before Joining Starfleet to find Dr. Roger Korby who got her started in medicine.
 
Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson, Scarlett Johansson...
 
She has some parts under her belt that Wacky is fond of, but he's always looking forward to her next biggest hits.

^^^^^^^^^^ What CaptainWacky said. ^^^^^^^^

Actually, I've always thought Abrams has pretty much bitten off all he can chew with Kirk's parents, Sarek, Amanda, Scotty, McCoy, Sulu, Uhura, Chekov, Pike, and anyone else confirmed whom I may have forgotten.

Add too many more from TOS lore, and after a while, it wouldn't be a story, it'd be a character reunion. Too many characters with too little to do.

Well, who's JJ going out with right now? You know, if they want to be true to the original and all.

She should also play Number One. :)
Actually, I totally agree. Just put a blonde wig on the actress (or brunette) to play the other role.

On the other hand, I'm convinced Chapel, One, Lwaxanna Troi, and the Computer Voice are all clones of the same person that the Federation has planted. :devil:
 
You know...They should get Marina Sirtis to play Number One, come to think of it. That would be a marvelous in joke for the fans.

She should be Janice Rand. For Chapel, I'd prefer Lake Bell or Claire Danes.
 
Mary Lynn Rajskub?

(a lot of people like her for Janice Rand but MJF is in her late 30's, and Rand was only supposed to be about 20)
 
Hmmm, Rand a civilian teenager, daughter to one of the supporting, non-core characters? Hayden Pantierre for Rand! She can be a cheerleader for the Starfleet waterpolo team. :D

But of course, if they've all signed contracts for a three-movie deal as Quinto's contract was noted to be.... then there's the strong chance that over 6 hours of film, there will be a lot more opportunity to get back to those characters... establishing them in Trek 2008, and then pulling them in more in 2010 and 2012...

As to Chapel, I always had the sense she came on shortly before WALGMO:
  • Memory Alpha and Wikipedia remark:
    On stardate 2712.4, the USS Enterprise, under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, travels to the icy planet of Exo III to search for the exobiologist, Dr. Roger Korby. Korby is the fiancé of Dr. McCoy's temporary assistant, Nurse Christine Chapel, and is known as the "Louis Pasteur of archaeological medicine". Chapel has been searching for her missing lover for quite some time, and signed on to the Enterprise for just this reason.

It makes more sense not to have her at all if this is an early prequel.

Whitneyas Rand always look much older than 20 to me. Heck maybe even 40! :devil:
