Cadet Uhura and Kirk in Captain's Chair in Star Trek 2009
A new Star Trek reboot movie, set to be based in a pre-Enterprise era, has received an update on its script and filming status. The Star Trek franchise is among the most popular and successful media franchises of all time, and so far has spanned 12 television series and 13 feature films, with the most recent being 2016's Star Trek Beyond.
What This News Means For The Future Of The Star Trek Franchise With Almost A Decade Since The Last Movie Expectations Will Be High Close ✕ Remove Ads The Star Trek reboot has a lot resting on its shoulders, with Star Trek Beyond released almost a decade ago, and only being a modest box office success. Since then the franchise has expanded its TV projects, which have seen varying degrees of success, but the time is right for the franchise to become a blockbuster force once again.
A pre-Enterprise story moves the franchise away from over-reliance on legacy characters and allows the filmmakers a clean slate to put their mark on the world in a way that respects the source material, whilst still remaining fresh, original, and interesting. It also sets the franchise up for a newer and younger audience that might not be familiar with the source material that has come before.
