With all the secrecy that has been surrounding the 11th Star Trek movie, it's a bit surprising that it took less than a week for the first pictures to start leaking out from the set.
Both IESB and JFX Online have published pictures of what appears to be a warehouse location not on the Paramount lot of actors wearing long trench coats to cover their costumes. Apparently, J.J. Abrams and company have already felt that there may be spy cameras outside, and took some extra precautions, but it seems some costume details have already leaked out.
IESB reports that colors visible include blue, red, dark green and white, and that the colors are not as loud as they were in the original series. Also, there are some indications that the actors are wearing yellow or gold bands around their cuff areas, also reminiscent of the original costume design for Starfleet uniforms.
IESB says the actors being photographed are extras, and none of the main cast was spotted. However, if these are extras, then this extra needs to contact Jennifer Morrison on "House, M.D." because she looks a lot like her.

"Star Trek XI" is expected to be released Dec. 25, 2008.
