Clarke explained, “It was just an audition like all the others, really. You do your lines and see what happens, and luckily this time I got the job I was at home, in my kids’ room, because they were making noise in the living room! And yeah, I was told I’d got it, and yeah, I was happy. I was happy. I don’t get over-excited about things, because I’m just kind of like that. I’m happy, but a job is a job. You get some, some you don’t get. But you can’t get over-excited about stuff.”

 

He added, “I think it’s just one of those things where it’s another level of accomplishment where you’ve done another job that’s bigger than the ones you’ve done before … all of that stuff helps in your career Hopefully it will just help me with mine. But how people look at me is up to them.” Star Trek 2 is set to be released on May 17, 2013.
