Although Ethan Peck found plenty of success as an actor, he didn't exactly find fame until 2019, when he was cast as the iconic Spock in Paramount+'s "Star Trek: Discovery." At first, Peck was terrified about taking on the role that had previously been played by Leonard Nimroy and Zachary Quinto. "I was just waiting to get fired for like six months," he said to Trek Central. "Even when we went to 'Strange New Worlds' [a 2022 TV show], I was like, 'I'm getting fired.' So that was always there, a lot of doubt."
Nevertheless, fans have embraced him. At conventions, he's met hundreds of fans. And not only has Spock brought Peck new levels of fame, but he has also helped him grow as a person. "He challenges me to be more confident. To have more useful thoughts," he said to Esquire. "I found that I spent a lot of time thinking about ways in which I wasn't worthy or good enough, and that wasn't useful."
While Gregory Peck wasn't exactly known for sci-fi, it's pretty clear that his grandson has inherited some of his talents.
