When "Star Trek" first brought a new Spock to fans, Zachary Quinto's casting was offset by the revelation that Leonard Nimoy's Spock was still untouched. The game fully changed in "Discovery" Season 2 when Ethan Peck became the first actor to play the prime version of one of "Trek's" best characters. The actor continues to win the praise of fans in "Strange New Worlds," and Nimoy's son Adam told CinemaBlend he's a big fan despite the differences between the portrayals of Spock.

When talking to Adam Nimoy about the release of his book "The Most Human: Reconciling with My Father, Leonard Nimoy," which is available for sale right now, we brought up Ethan Peck having written one of the praise-filled blurbs for the new release, and then asked the son of Spock how he felt about the young actor's performance in the streaming hit.
