Matt Damon is open to playing Capt. Kirk in a new "Star Trek" movie, but hasn't been cast in the role--contrary to rumors.

"If the script was good, I'd do it," Damon said in an interview while promoting his latest film, The Good Shepherd. "But, yeah, I heard that [rumor]. I think J.J. Abrams or somebody said that at press junket or something, and it got picked up [by the media and Star Trek fans]."
