Paramount officially announces Star Trek 3 for 2016

[Khan 2.0]

I guess it wasn't 'officially' announced before?

For 2016, Ryan promised Paranormal Activity 5, a new take on Ben Hur directed by Timur Bekmambetov, the return of Eddie Murphy for Beverly Hills Cop, Transformers 5, GI Joe 3, Hansel and Gretel 2 and Star Trek 3

I'm interested in what the release date will be. I feel Trek is better off in the Holiday season as opposed to the Summer trying to compete with action films.

I look forward to old Spock sending the crew off on a mission to go look for something. That's the plot sorted anyway. Titles are always harder to come up with.

Plus theres the small matter of Avatar 2 (& not forgetting the new Paramount announcements in OP)


if ST3 follows the release dates for ST09/STID, then it be either 5/13 or 5/20 (between CA3/SvB & XM:A)

I wonder if they'll end up going back to the November/December release date? Like the 20th, 25th and 30th anniversaries. Spend several months leading up to it, heavily publicising that 2016 is Star Trek's 50th? Big TV celebration in September and unveil the full version of a trailer.

I felt a great disturbance... as if dozens of Trekkies cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.*

*Thanks to George Lucas.

September 8th, "The Man Trap", would be cool. But it's the end of summer and the start of school. what about on Christmas? Abrams wanted to launch Star Trek on this day.

 

[Mad Mike]

Looking at the list above, I'd go with June or November for safety's sake.

I thought one (or both) of those movies got their release date changed?

 

[Khan 2.0]

All I'll say is Bring it onnnnnn!!!!!!!.

agreed...we would not want to get in the way of "Alvin and the Chipmunks 4: Chipped Teeth" now, would we?...

While I was thinking more of the planned Star Wars movie, you are quite right. Save the Chipmunks!

ohhhh-kay!

May it be as glorious as Doctor Who's big 50. Best of luck to Orci!

 

[F. King Daniel]

We've been hearing about the director, writers and story tidbits for the past couple of months. I never doubted that there would be a Star Trek 3 in 2016!

I hear Benicio Del Toro is up for the part of the villain.

I think that if Star Trek's opening date is close to ANY of these films, it will do just fine.
