Paramount confirm two Star Trek movies incoming

With another series of Star Trek: Discovery on the way and Quentin Tarantino reportedly working on a Star Trek movie, it’s undoubtedly an exceptional time to be a Trekkie.

Speaking at CinemaCon, Paramount chainman Jim Gianopulos said two Star Trek movies are currently in the works.

While no further details were given, one of the Star Trek movies is presumably the Tarantino feature, which already has a writer (The Revenant‘s Mark L. Smith) and producer (JJ Abrams).

Paramount also previously announced a sequel to Star Trek Beyond, which would feature Chris Pine’s James T. Kirk meeting his father, played by Chris Hemsworth.

While promoting Beyond, Abrams teased that the upcoming film would “bring together” father and son but failed to say whether that would be in a flashback or through time-travelling.

Meanwhile, before Tarantino dedicates himself to the untitled-Star Trek, the director will helm Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, his ninth film.

Set in 1969 and with the Manson Family murders acting as a backdrop, the movie will star Margot Robbie, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Brad Pitt.
