Uses the word "meet," and the phrase "step onto Capt. Pike=E2=80=99s Enterp= rise." I'm not sure how accurate that is.
It also mentions only two actors, and they look close to the (human) charac= ters they voice.
I'm guessing it'll be the actors, although I can see a temptation to make t= hem cgi characters. Heck, I see a temptation to vary the body proportions = between those of the cartoon drawing and an actually person until we find t=
