Last week we reported that STAR TREK BEYOND guest actress Sofia Boutella spent Canada Day in the Squamish forest north of Vancouver, and today we can exclusively report that the Algerian actress, along with writer / actor Simon Pegg, were two of the BEYOND cast members participating in the filming at the end of June.

As confirmed to us by multiple visitors to the shooting location at the Stawamus Chief Provincial Park, Simon Pegg was in full Montgomery Scott mode, wearing his duty uniform in the rocky wooded area.

Whatever Scotty is up to, he’s there on Starfleet business — perhaps as part of a landing party?

Ever since Sofia Boutella’s casting announcement was made back in April, fans have been speculating about her role in the upcoming Star Trek sequel, and we can also now exclusively bring you the first details of the actress’ look in STAR TREK BEYOND, confirmed with several witnesses to the filming site.

Our sources described the actress as being “difficult to recognize with all the make-up” and that “her costume dramatically changed her look” when in character around the Squamish forest.

While we’ve not been able to obtain more specific details at this time on her character, it seems clear by our witnesses’ descriptions that she’s likely filling a non-human role in the 2016 film — and non-Vulcan as well, as the limited prosthetics would still keep her quite identifiable.

STAR TREK BEYOND is expected to continue shooting on soundstages throughout July, so there is not likely to be any additional location filming before production moves to Dubai.

In the meantime, please enjoy this awkward celebrity selfie on the streets of Vancouver.
