Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes sign autographs for fans at the premiere of Star Trek at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

Looks like this couple skipped out on the red carpet!

According to the National Enquirer, Tom has offered to let Katie’s recently widowed sister Tammy and her children move into their Beverly Hills mansion. Katie’s brother-in-law, 48-year-old Jeff Fretti, died of a heart attack on April 12.

“Katie was so worried and upset for Tammy,” an insider reveals. “They are really close, and Katie wanted to help any way she could. Then Tom came up with the idea of inviting Tammy and the boys to live with them. It meant Katie could keep a close watch on her sister and help her through this tough time. Tom really was a savior. He wants Katie to be happy, and he knew this would make it so much easier for her.”

Abrams franchise reboot. Chris Pine as James T. Kirk, Eric Bana as Romulan villain Nero, Karl Urban as McCoy and John Cho as Sulu.

Here’s a snippet from Entertainment Weekly’s cover story:

Is the world ready again for Trek’s optimistic vision of the future? Some involved with the film suspect the presidential election may have a dramatic effect on how Star Trek will be perceived. “This is a franchise that offers hope for unity—and so does Barack Obama,” says Zachary Quinto, who plays Spock. “When this movie comes out, and Obama is presi­dent, hopefully there will be some parallels.”

Star Trek costars Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto go eyebrow crazy on the latest cover of Entertainment Weekly.

EW even has first photos from their set visit. This Trek movie exclusive hits newsstands on Friday!

Chris Pine, who plays the young Captain James T. Kirk in JJ Abrams‘ Star Trek, spoke ever-so-briefly with Entertainment Weekly at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Check it:

Are you feeling any pressure to evoke William Shatner? I actually feel the exact opposite. I think the biggest mistake I could ever do would be to try to re-create what Mr. Shatner did. There are certain qualities that Kirk has that are vital for someone who is a leader of men. And those qualities, I definitely wanted to take from what Mr. Shatner did in the original series. But my job is to take something new, to take that and build upon it, really do my own thing. I just feel no pressure when it comes to that.

Is the pressure coming more from the fanboys and their off-the-charts expectations? Yeah, sure, the Internet is not my friend in this case. Best to stay away. I can understand, I don’t have that many credits and people are very worried that their Kirk is going to be destroyed. But I can only say that we’re having a great time. J.J. [Abrams, the director] has been wonderful and the cast is phenomenal. I think what we’re doing is very special.

Have you talked with Shatner? I have not talked to Shatner. I wrote him a letter early on in the process and corresponded that way. I got a letter back from him, which is very nice. And I’ve met Mr. Nimoy a couple of times. He’s been on set and we have a couple of scenes in the film, which will be nice, and I’m excited for those.

The new Star Trek film opens on Christmas Day. For the full Chris Pine interview, check out EW.com.
