Did this ever start filming? OP said Q4 of 2024...

 

[Quinton]

Pretty sure we’d know if it did.

We don't even know the cast.

Its been nearly three months and still not a shred of an update.

Its been nearly three months and still not a shred of an update.

I wonder why

Top men are working on it.

Top. Men.

Paramount shareholders whenever a Star Trek film is announced:

 

[evilchumlee]

Paramount is... odd about announcing projects. You don't need to yell into wind about every idea that comes around as if it's going to be a thing. Keep some things to yourself. If it happens, it happens.

 

[Dukhat]

For the last nine years, Paramount's modus operandi for Trek movie projects has been to make announcements and then not actually make anything. It's ridiculously predictable at this point.

 

[evilchumlee]

And then when *DO* make something... it's... Section 31. Yay.

 

[fireproof78]

So maybe don't make anything?

Seems like Paramount is in a losing battle.

I would much rather they just make nothing over... just... making garbage.

Someone decided to ape the Axanar style of promotion.

Well, y'know... "One person's garbage", and all that...

 

[Dukhat]

But Section 31 was garbage. And count me in as someone who would have preferred we got nothing instead of what we got. But really, comparing Section 31 to a theatrical film is like comparing apples and oranges.

 

[137th Gebirg]

More like apples to festering puss-warts, but yeah.

 

[fireproof78]

I would much rather they just make nothing over... just... making garbage.

I'd rather nothing as well.

When the Star Trek movies start again in the cinema, I think it will coincide with the end of the new Star Trek shows on television.

Doubt it. They aren't going to end Star Trek's current TV run until is stops being profitable. And when that happens, the franchise won't have enough popularity to convince Suits that a theatrical movie is worth the gamble.
