IGN Filmforce.com reported Grunberg said Abrams will find him a role in "Star Trek IX" to continue the long-standing entertainment link between the two, but did not know what role or species he would be playing in the film sequel.
"Yeah! I wanna be a bad guy," the 40-year-old actor said of the possibility of playing a Klingon in the film. "It would be great to have some great role."
Grunberg has previously worked with the 40-year-old TV and film producer on the series "Lost," "Alias," and "Felicity," while also garnering a role in his recent film "Mission Impossible III."
