Vic 17 Posted September 14, 2011 According to Vulture, J.J. Abrams will indeed be directing Star Trek 2. “Insiders familiar with the director’s plans” told Vulture that pre-production on Star Trek 2 was underway; the script is set to be completed by the end of this month; and Star Trek 2 will begin shooting this winter. Supposedly, part of the delay was due to the lack of availability of Alex Kurtzman, who had been working on Welcome to People. But now Kurtzman’s work on that project has been completed and he is ready to turn his attention to Star Trek 2. View the full article Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted September 14, 2011 1. Who or what in hell is "Vulture" Never heard of it. Waiting for the news from Paramount or Abrams himself. 2. Supposedly, part of the delay was due to the lack of availability of Alex Kurtzman, who had been working on Welcome to People. But now Kurtzman’s work on that project has been completed and he is ready to turn his attention to Star Trek 2. Horsecrap! Months and months ago he said he and Roberto were finished with other commitments and were holing up in a hotel room to bang out a script. Since then all news has been of a "we're working on it" nature. I think the delays, (and Abrams hesitancty to commit) were/are because a good idea/script was not forth coming.
