This just in-
Paramount’s “Star Trek“ franchise is set to boldly go with an all-new film from director Toby Haynes (“Andor“). Seth Grahame-Smith (author of “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter”) will be penning the script.
At present, the plot is being kept VERY quiet. Early sources indicate this will be some kind of ‘origin story’ set well before JJ Abrams rebooted the franchise in 2009.
Perhaps most interesting is that Haynes directed the “Black Mirror” episode which parodied the long-running science fiction program in s4’s “USS Callister.”
This story is developing…
