    I’m just hoping that this doesnt mean SNW will be cancelled like some of the other shows

    Skydance: Started and run by Larry Ellison’s son, David Ellison, and being that, it’s impossible for him to run out of money.

    I hope he’s a Trekkie.

      They produced Into Darkness and Beyond, so they at least have some history with the franchise.

        I wish that made me more confident that they can make decent Trek movies and TV, but it doesn’t

        Into Darkness

        oh no!

        Beyond

        oh yes!

        I’m not sure what to think there.

    I don’t hate this. Seems like Skydance has less conflict of interest (i.e. alternative franchises) than the Warner Brothers merger talks from December. Remains to be seen if this is a good thing from a Trek point of view but… Could be worse.
