Chris Pine wants to turn into George Clooney, get some hookers

As the young Captain James T. Kirk in the J.J. Abrams reboot of Star Trek, Chris Pine was the big breakout star of two summers ago. Hollywood, however, needed to do some catching up, it seems, and so Pine's first big followup comes next month, with the action movie Unstoppable. He's been busy, though, in the interim: injuring his junk, sleeping with many a young starlet and daydreaming of hookers and blow.

Details has the deets:

"My body's all sorts of fucked-up," Pine tells me backstage after the show. "I tore my groin," he adds. "I pulled my neck and my glute, tweaked my rhomboid, sprained my fucking sacrum.

“I feel prematurely old. I’m actually having this major belated quarter-life crisis. I’m turning 30 in a couple of weeks. I’ve been thinking a lot about mortality. A lot about what I’m going to do with my life and how to enjoy it.

“I’m single and very happy about it. It’s a good time to be single. I have a lot of friends getting married right now, having babies. But I think I’ll be more like … the George Clooney.  

 

“Sometimes I think I need to get crazy. Go to Vegas. Do some drugs. Get some hookers. Gamble it all away. And it never happens. I usually just end up at home on my couch—reading.” 

 

Tony Scott on Pine's latest play: "This is the most violent piece of theater I've ever seen—it's funny and complicated, and Chris is great in it. I know it sounds like Hollywood bullshit, but Chris is a stand-alone. A star. He's beautiful and sexy. He's got mystery and darkness."
