Trek's future according to Paramount's new owners...

[Nerys Myk]

Isn’t Stranger Things all about 80s nostalgia? So they’d be perfect for a TNG revival.

Based on what?

The deal is for television and features.

Are they even FANS?

Fandom Menace: "Help us, Duffer Brothers. You're our only hope."

#StarWars

Let's hope. Even though I enjoyed the Sequels, we all know what happened when JJ makes Star Wars and he's a huge fan. Not so much with Star Trek, and ST09 was a great succes because of that.

Now I’m even more convinced that they will be the ones tapped to reboot Star Trek.

Why?

Now I’m even more convinced that they will be the ones tapped to reboot Star Trek.

I saw someone post a comment on that article with the same sentiment involved, comparing this to the Benioff and Weiss deal over at Netflix.

Was that you, by chance? Because it’s the only other time I’ve seen anybody reach this conclusion.

Why would they try and reboot again? They'll only deboot again within a decade.

 

[Danlav05]

I wonder where this leaves TV Trek - one continuity or two separate strands?

Tron: Ares is coming out October 10.

I wouldn't call 15 years latter an immediate 'Sequal" and practically non of the TL characters are in it. So not a direct sequal they were trying to make. But I get you.

The deal is for television and features.

Those kind of deals are made all the time. There’s nothing in this situation to infer or imply the Duffers are being brought aboard for Trek, especially when Kurtzman’s contract hasn’t run out yet.
