Film-industry shindig CinemaCon was the venue at which Paramount Photos introduced it has began work on a brand new Star Trek film. Slashfilm experiences Untitled Star Trek Origin Story will probably be a prequel to Star Trek (2009), J.J. Abrams’ shiny prequel to Star Trek (1966). It’ll be directed by Toby Haynes, most well-known round these elements for helming episodes of Andor and Black Mirror’s USS Callister. The screenplay has been written by Seth Grahame-Smith, who wrote The Lego Batman Film and Satisfaction and Prejudice and Zombies.
In order that we’re clear, Untitled Star Trek Origin Story will function a prequel to the 2009 origin story and a sequel to 2001’s origin story, Enterprise. It is going to possible be set earlier than Discovery, which was conceived as a prequel to Star Trek (1966) and Strange New Worlds, which is a prequel to Star Trek (1966). And, look, should you’ll enable me to get a bit of private for a second, I’m deeply overjoyed on the information. Given the dearth of origin tales, prequels and nostalgia-parades within the Star Trek universe, an Untitled Star Trek Origin Story is a welcome, essential and life-giving addition to the franchise.
Let’s be trustworthy, it’s excessive time we bought one thing insular and backward-looking after so a few years of continuous groundbreaking, authentic adventures shorn from the burdens of continuity.
