Although Lin has acknowledged his work on “Beyond” as a “rescue mission,” he actually wasn’t the first to bill it that way.
“What better way to show appreciation for the constant support of IMAX fans worldwide than by partnering with our friends at Paramount, Skydance, Bad Robot and the San Diego Symphony Orchestra on this ultimate Comic-Con world premiere”, said Greg Foster, Senior Executive Vice President, IMAX Corp. and CEO of IMAX Entertainment.
We’ve had the first glimpse at the long-running sci-fi franchise’s return to TV, and now a new trailer for this summer’s big budget movie Star Trek Beyond has been released. “Paramount/Viacom VIAB +1.69% Inc. put out a teaser trailer back in December to go along with Star Wars: The Force Awakens”.
The trailer was released Friday during a fan event, according to The Verge.
It looks like anyone concerned that this was going to be “2Fast2Trek” can rest easy knowing this is a large-scale Trek adventure with new aliens, new threats to the Enterprise crew and the Earth, and at least one literal cliffhanger. “There’s a lot more story and a lot more character stuff and a lot more of what I would call ‘Star Trek stuff'”.

The trailer features plenty of high-octane action that hints at what new director and Fast and Furious franchise vet Justin Lin is bringing to the table without causing you to wonder if a NOS can might come into play at some point. The film stars John Cho, Simon Pegg, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoë Saldana, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin and Idris Elba.
