Thanks to a recent interview in The Hollywood Reporter, “Star TrekBoss Alex Kurtzman and Paramount Pictures CEO Brian Robbins spoke about the various strategies and synergies that will carry the franchise in the next decade.
THR Lesley goldberg demand Kurtzman and Robbins some questions about the launch of “Star Trek: ProdigyAnd how this new animated Trek could eventually become a feature film. This “Prodigy” movie, which would be a theatrical release, would aim to take the characters from the show and present them in a way that all ages could enjoy – mom, dad and the kids.
A future “Prodigy” movie
This thinking, Robbins said, is a “four quadrant” strategy and would allow Trek to achieve something like “Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse”, Which was able to entertain on many levels.
“We are working on several fronts, and obviously Alex is the key to the franchise. [on Paramount+]. », Robbins told THR in the interview. “NOT A WORD [Abrams] has been the franchise keeper on the film side. We hope that as a business we will do what is right for the franchise. “
Surprisingly, Robbins said Paramount could work on three Trek movies – the aforementioned “Prodigy” movie, the new JJ Abrams-produced movie, and a possible Paramount + side movie. This last film was implied by the following exchange:
Goldberg asked Robbins if he “got scripts for a live action feature film from both camps?”
Robbins replied that “there is a lot going on, and I’ll leave it at that”.
Two live-action movies?
These comments confirm what has been a bit of a mystery over the past few months. Heavy reports on the hiring of Kalinda Vazquez to write what many thought, was “Star Trek 4”. Later, fans learned that a second Trek movie set to be released on June 9, 2023. Many thought it would be the same movie, but Heavy Robin Zabiegalski correctly assumed they were two separate titles – not one.
The “Star Trek 4“The saga is well known and originally had to appear George Kirk (Chris Hemsworth) and his son, James T. (Chris Pine), reunited. It collapsed, according to many, due to the failure of contract negotiations.
Kelvin Cast moves on
Over the years, most of the actors in JJ Abrams’ “Kelvin” movies have been very busy with various projects. Fans can see Pine in the “Wonder woman“Films while John Cho (Sulu) will star in a new live-action adaptation of”Cowboy Bebop“, which will be broadcast on Netflix.

Johnny Brayson of the Fuss called Boutella the “escape star” of “Star Trek Beyond”. Brayson also speculated that the filmmakers left her fate a little cloudy, so they “could realistically have her become a franchise regular or never be seen again.”
Boutella told USA Today that she “is excited to be a part of [Star Trek] again ”if asked.
“Jaylah” in a “Star Wars” movie
Instead of a new “Star Trek” movie, Boutella will be part of a new movie, which was originally supposed to be a “Star Wars” movie. Zack Snyder, the filmmaker who brought us “Army of the Dead” and “Batman vs. Superman”Creates his new story, which hpresented to Disney as a new movie “Wars”, but was rejected.
“Rebel Moon” is, according to the summary, a story where “the people of a galaxy send a young woman to seek warriors from other planets to help them from the tyrannical armies which terrorize their peaceful colony”.
