Does anyone think Star Trek Legacy will ever happen?

VOY is frequently listed by older school fans as their least favorite of the 1966-2005 live action series. Outside long term, highly motivated Trekkies (and the plot of PRO) there just isn't much of any desire to revive VOY characters for anything. Seven was only in PIC because she was there from the beginning of Season 1 and they stuck with Jeri, they didn't come up with Seven as some incredible ratings grab in Season 2 or 3.
 
Now that Warner and PSKY are both on the hook for a combined thirty feature films per year, maybe Legacy can come back as a movie?

They can do the He-Man thing: do a brief theatrical window and then move it to streaming.
The only path I see to a sustainable series of movies led by Jeri Ryan is a TNG movie to pass the torch to Legacy. And when the subject of a movie was brought up shortly after the completing of PIC, the impression I got was that they wanted the same energy of PIC S3. Which was just Crimson Tide meets nuBSG, mixed with whatever experimentation Patrick Stewart wanted.

Even with Star Trek’s current obsession with Crimson Tide, I’m just not sure how likely that actually is. Disregarding the opposition to a movie because PIC S3 was seen as a worthy send off of the TNG crew, these sales and merger have taken a long time to complete. I’m not sure who is still up for the idea all these years later.

I think it's a Gen X thing.

Crimson Tide might have inspired PIC S3, but it also inspired one of the most recent SNW episodes. It will also inspire the next Star Trek movie, at least according to Paramount itself.
