I specifically went and watched F&F 4-6 after Lin was announced as the directorfor Trek 3, and he's an awesome action director, but he's also adept at juggling an ensemble cast. I agree, we're in good hands here.
Pegg updates on script
- Thread starter F. King Daniel
- Start date
It will be [an original character], yes. This is the five-year mission now, we’re out there. We don’t always have to keep bumping into the same people… So we’re gonna try and reflect that in the movie.

Oh, yeah! Now you’re talking!
I always said that. New movie, new characters, new story.

I want Elba to be Uhura's long-lost (at least according to the ancient novel The Starless World) father, Alhamisi.
I like this news. It's exciting!
I thought about that too...
(in her bios from the star trek app they don't mention he's lost in this reality.)
he could play her father or brother (though, Elba is like 6 years older than Zoe
)probably won't be. If her dad is the villain it will feel like Carol and admiral Marcus all over again. It would feel like all the girls have bad fathers too. lol
That was not always the case, though. When Marvel comics were first published in Germany (via Hit Comics), they actually very loosely translated all of the characters names and the Hulk became the Halk (for pronounciation reasons obviously), it wasn't until 1973 that the Hulk was spelled Hulk.
And no, the word Übermensch is tainted by the NS regime the same way words like Endlösung are. You wouldn't call Superman that. Well, the Zach Snyder version, murdering hundereds of people single handedly destroying Metropolis while the 'bad guys' want to move the fight out of the city, maybe. But that wasn't Superman anyway.
An interesting idea. Personally, I think it would be a fun twist to have Daystrom sent out with the Enterprise to recover a probe he designed that might be in disrepair in order for the data to be saved. Except, the probe was started its own civilization and treats Daystrom like a god.
You get a Prime Directive conflict, a potential for a genius/madman villain, and Kirk forced to make a decision regarding a civilization that could pose a threat to the Federation.
Plus, things could explode
I liked Soval and T'pol. They were both played with that fine balance between strictured Vulcan (ala Tuvok), and the more casual way that Nimoy (GRHS) and Quinto played Spock.
Pegg: Filming Starts in Six Weeks, Script Not Done
"Scotty, you're my Chief Engineer. You know everything about that franchise there is to know, more than the men who redesigned it. If you can't get that screenplay working - you're fired!"

Isn't the first time that a movie has had scriptwriting done all the way up to the beginning of shooting.
It does seem awfully compressed, though. I just hope it comes together as a proper release for the 50th anniversary. Oh well--no use fretting, unless you're Simon Pegg.
The Hobbit
Van Helsing
The Star Wars trilogy
The Star Wars prequel trilogy
Star Trek 2009.
To name a few just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are more, and many other films have dealt with worse. I keep referring to TWOK because that preproduction process sounds absolutely nuts, and yet came together very well.
I have every confidence in this team.

I'm happy that there is a full draft done. I'm sure something can be pretty much locked by the time shooting starts - and even then, as noted, tweeking will continue.
"No script! No budget! This film will never get made!" etcetera etcetera
I'm sure they'll come up with the goods.

Partially due to the fact there was a writer's strike during production of the film.
