The mysterious next Star Trek film that no one knows about has moved to Dec. 22, 2023, from June 9, 2023. It is unknown who will star in the film or if Chris Pine, who played Captain Kirk in three films from 2009-2016, or any of his crew will be back.
“Where we go with the franchise next theatrically is crucial to the health of the overall franchise,” Robbins told The Hollywood Reporter in October. “There’s no doubt that big theatrical movies are the beacon that ignite franchises. We’re in it and I don’t really have anything to say because I’m waiting for the development to be delivered. I can’t wait to get going on it; we’re not there yet, but we need to get there soon.”
The new Trek movie will be helmed by WandaVision chief Matt Shakman, with Josh Friedman and Cameron Squires form a rewriting of an existing script that Lindsey Beer and Geneva Robertson-Dworet created. The last installment we had from the franchise on the big screen was around 2016’s Star Trek Beyond, which failed to meet expectations in the box office, yet has been kept active on Paramount+ with Star Trek Discovery and various other side projects streaming. J.J. Abrams is is still going to be producing the new Trek film.
