The NEW “Star Trek” Movie Trailer is a Film Geek’s Dream Come True!
“Star Trek” is the re-imagining of the classic science fiction movie and TV series that will be directed by J. J. Abrams (”Cloverfield”, “Alias”) written by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. It is the eleventh “Star Trek” film and features the main characters of the original “Star Trek” series, who are portrayed by a new cast.
The new film follows James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) enrolling at Starfleet Academy, his first meeting with Spock (Zachary Quinto), and their battles with Romulans from the future, who are interfering with history. The film is scheduled to be released on May 8, 2009 in North America and the United Kingdom.

Development of the film began in 2005 when Paramount Pictures contacted Abrams, Orci and Kurtzman for ideas to revive the franchise. The creative team contrasted Orci and Lindelof, who consider themselves “Trekkies”, with casual fans like Abrams, who all aimed to create a film that would interest a general audience. They wanted to be faithful to “Star Trek” canon, but also introduced elements of their favorite novels, modified continuity with the time travel storyline, and modernized the production design of the original show.

Filming took place from November 2007 to April 2008 under intense secrecy. Midway through the shoot, Paramount chose to delay the release date from December 25, 2008 to May 2009, arguing the film would perform better in the summer. After watching the trailer below I agree with that decision 100%. This movie will be huge, “Batman” huge!
