Paul Wesley

has been working"overtime" when it comes to playing James T. Kirk . Coming off of this week's on-screen timey-wimey adventure withwent live with a profile interview of Wesley – and yes, he definitely talks Kirk. In the following highlights, Wesley explains how close the character is to him, what it was from"Where No Man Has Gone Before" that inspired his take on Kirk, and how he approaches the role when"different takes" are required.

: "I think very. I think he's very close to me. If you were to give me Kirk without any preconceived notion of Kirk, and there was no William Shatner, and there was no Chris Pine, I would feel like, 'This role is made for me.' But because of the stigma and the zeitgeist of Captain Kirk, every day, I'm like, 'Wait, am I doing this correctly? Should I be doing it this way?' I normally wouldn't question that.
