Comment on "The hope is to have a fresh 'Star Trek' movie, though [Paramount] has moved on from the idea of bringing back Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and the rest of the ensemble from the J.J. Abrams reboot."

that's a shame, i always really liked Pine's Kirk in particular. but i guess it was also inevitable as soon as Spock showed up in Disco with a new actor

the rest of the article is... harrowing, to say the least. Trek feels like the elephant in the room at Paramount right now- you'd think Ellison would think that "un-woke-ifying" Trek would be an easy way to score points with the White House right now, but so far it's been business as usual

I have a long list of things I disliked about the JJ Abrams movies, but the casting was certainly nowhere on it.

Honestly, I’d take this with a small grain of salt.

I don’t doubt Variety’s reporting, but this amounts to a bullet point in a larger article, and while I’m sure they’ve “moved on” from whatever they had cooking, I think it’s also possible that they could develop another project with that crew, if they have a script that they like well enough.

We’ll see what happens - it’s been years of them being unable to get a project going, and I don’t expect that to change any time soon.
