Star Trek Prequel Offcially A Go At Paramount, JJ Abrams Producing
A prequel to the 2009 Star Trek film has been announced by Paramount at CinemaCon but will we actually see it happen?
Article Summary
- Paramount announces a Star Trek prequel at CinemaCon, set before 2009 film.
- Toby Hanes to direct, JJ Abrams to produce, and Seth Grahame-Smith to write.
- No casting, start, or release dates yet, skepticism remains among fans.
- Stay tuned for more CinemaCon news, including Star Trek, TMNT, and Disney.
Star Trek 2009 is getting a prequel. The new film will take place decades before that film, and was announced this afternoon at the Paramount CinemaCon presentation, where a slew of announcements were made. Toby Hanes (Andor) will direct from a script by Seth Grahame-Smith. JJ Abrams will produce for Bad Robot. No word on the cast, production start date, or release date, so like other Star Trek projects, take this with a grain of salt. Announcing it from the stage is a step in the right direction though. I hope it happens, as Star Trek fans have had the rug pulled out from them so many times at this point, they deserve to fill theaters again. The Wrap had the news.
Maybe This Star Trek Film Actually Happens?
From exclusive Hollywood product presentations debuting a slate of upcoming films, to must-see premiere feature screenings, to the biggest stars, producers and directors, in 2024, CinemaCon will jumpstart the excitement and buzz that surrounds the fall and holiday season (and beyond) at the box office.
The CinemaCon schedule will be broad, diverse, educational and fun, and will feature the largest cinema trade show in the world. It will appeal to and attract all facets of the international motion picture theater industry—exhibition, distribution, marketing, publicity and advertising, internet and social media and of course, the theater equipment and concessions manufacturers and dealers who will showcase the latest technological advances and innovative concession offerings at the trade show, which is run in association with our partners at ICTA and NAC. As well, CinemaCon will continue to incorporate a special day of programming geared for the international marketplace, that being Monday, 8 April 2024.
