Where do things stand with the next “Star Trek” sequel, and why did you decide to bring back Chris Pine?
We’re deep into it with J.J. Abrams, and it feels like we’re getting close to the starting line and excited about where we’re going creatively. I’m a research nerd, and what the data tells me is that the audience wants that cast in this movie.
So basically nothing at all has changed at the top with Paramount vs. a few years ago or even 2009 and all of those possibly neat things that have been floating around in the past 2-3 years like the Noah Hawley movie or the Tarantino script aren't happening. More JJ Trek movies helps what move forward, exactly?
