So I was pretty surprised while searching the official Star Trek site (I was looking for an episode synapsis) when I saw a link with the new teaser poster for the next Star Trek movie.
I'm kind of surprised because I remember when Nemesis came out the producers said they would only do another Star Trek movie (not just TNG, but in general) if Nemesis did well. The movie did well but it wasn't number one of the opening weekend (Maid in Manhattan was actually number 1 and Nemesis was number 2 and the difference between the two was only like 1-2 million which isn't to bad considering the difference between 1 & 2 are usually much more).
Here's what the poster looks like:
Based on the poster I'm kind of thinking it might be a non-TNG/Enterprise/Voyager movie. But who knows.
Here's a bit of the article:
A picture, even a mere image that hints at a broader picture, can instantly give you a snapshot of things to come.
The production team that now holds the creative reins for the next Star Trek movie project has released a piece of artwork this weekend (to coincide with Comic-Con) that provides a Polaroid of an era past, as well as a vision yet to be revealed. With this familiar imagery, the direction of the next movie is now officially open to speculation.
J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof are the film's producers; Bryan Burk, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci are executive producers. The film is slated for release in 2008.
Thoughts?
