Star
Trek: The Future
Begins
is a 2009
science fiction film
directed by J. J.
Abrams, written by
Roberto Orci and
Alex Kurtzman, and
produced by Damon
Lindelof and Bryan
Burk. It is the
eleventh film based
on the Star Trek
franchise and
features the main
characters of the
original Star Trek
series, who are
portrayed by a new
cast. It explores
the backstories of
James T. Kirk (Chris
Pine) and Spock
(Zachary Quinto),
before they unite
aboard the USS
Enterprise to combat
Nero (Eric Bana), a
Romulan from the
future who threatens
the United
Federation of
Planets. The film
will be released in
conventional
theaters and some
IMAX theaters on May
7, 2009. In North
America, it will
open May 8 following
advance screenings
starting at 7pm the
night before. Development of the film began in 2005 when Paramount Pictures contacted Abrams, Orci and Kurtzman for ideas to revive the franchise. The creative team contrasted Orci and Lindelof, who consider themselves "Trekkies", with casual fans like Abrams, who all aimed to create a film that would interest a general audience. They wanted to be faithful to Star Trek canon, but they also introduced elements of their favorite novels, modified continuity with the time travel storyline, and modernized the production design of the original show. Filming took place from November 2007 to March 2008 under intense secrecy. Midway through the shoot, Paramount chose to delay the release date from December 25, 2008 to May 7 (May 8 in North America), 2009, believing the film could reach a wider audience. |
