Following Matt Shakman's departure from the project, Paramount has pulled the 'Star Trek' sequel from their release slate.
It looks like Captain Kirk fans will have to watch Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to get their fix for the foreseeable future. Variety reports that Paramount has removed the untitled film from their upcoming release slate with the film initially set to hit the big screen on December 22, 2023. While the film might not be dead yet, it still isn't a good sign when Wikipedia has an entire page devoted to just the development of this film.
The untitled Star Trek movie was set to follow the unique timeline dubbed the 'Kelvin Timeline,' created in Star Trek after a Romulan ship from the future travels to the past, spurning a new sequence of events when its captain destroys Vulcan out of revenge. The same cast from the previous 3 films was expected to return, including Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldaña, Karl Urban , John Cho, and Simon Pegg.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY This development feels inevitable considering director Matt Shakman's departure from the film, after becoming attached to Marvel's Fantastic Four film. With that type of commitment, and albeit once that's probably a safer move over this Star Trek movie that cannot escape development, it's not surprising he hopped franchises.
Despite this, the cast conveyed their enthusiasm for the film, with Pine remarking, "Let's make the movie for the people that love this group of people, that love this story, that love Star Trek. Let's make it for them and then, if people want to come to the party, great." To say the least, plenty of people are still waiting for this party to get past the planning process.
