According to Entertainment Tonight, the film will apparently not continue the storyline in Abrams’ Star Trek Beyond (2016). It’s also unknown if the Enterprise crew — Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Simon Pegg, and Karl Urban will return to star in the forthcoming iteration of the Trek franchise.
Paramount’s most recent Trek film was Star Trek Beyond directed by Fast & Furious 6 helmer Justin Lin.

]]>The post Quentin Tarantino on Making a Star Trek Movie: “It’s a Very Big Possibility” appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>In a recent interview, Tarantino discussed the Star Trek movie and said that there is a “big possibility” that the movie ends up happening and that the script is already finished.
“It’s a very big possibility,” said Tarantino when asked whether he will take on the Star Trek movie. “I haven’t been dealing with those guys for a while ’cause I’ve been making my movie. But we’ve talked about a story and a script. The script has been written and when I emerge my head like Punxsutawney Phil, post- Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, we’ll pick up talking about it again.”
Paramount recently encountered some issues with Star Trek franchise, as Star Trek 4, which would serve as a sequel to 2016’s Star Trek: Beyond, was delayed due to contracting disputes with stars Chris Pine and Chris Hemsworth. This turn of events might now encourage the studio to speed up the process on Tarantino’s movie and give fans something to be excited about.

]]>Marvin the Paranoid Android (The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy)
Marvin the Paranoid Android is one of the best characters in the film. Radiohead must have thought so too, because they wrote one of their biggest hits about him.
Nexus-6 Pris (Blade Runner)
The blond and gothy Pris from Scott Ridley’s original Blade Runner is cool, badass and well, lethal.
Ultron (Avengers: Age of Ultron)
The deadly robot Ultron in the Marvel Cinematic Universe makes quite the villain.
Bender (Futurama)
Bender has a terrible attitude, but he is hilarious, so we’ll let him on the list.
Wall-E (Wall-E)
Wall-E has got to be the most lovable robot (who doesn’t really say anything) of all time. And he saved the human race, so that’s good too.
Terminator (Terminator)
Terminator is one of the most awesome looking robots we can think of.
Data (Star Trek)
Does Data feel love?
Bumblebee (Transformers)
The Transformers franchise went downhill pretty rapidly, but Bumblebee still remains one of our top bots.
R2-D2 and C3PO (Star Wars)
Well, obviously.
K-9 (Doctor Who)
The only thing in sci-fi better than a friendly robot, is a friendly robot dog.

]]>The post Top 10 Movies Set In Space appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>Interstellar is both an incredible cinematic journey as well as an emotional one.
Being stranded on Mars is probably most people’s worst nightmare. The Martian is a story that celebrates how far we have come and the value of human intellect when accompanied with our survival instinct.
It might not be entirely set in space but the moments when it is are extremely memorable.
This movie captures the terror and wonder of space better than any other. It cost Alfonso Cuarón $100 million to capture the shot of existential panic when Frank realizes he is going to spend the rest of his lift drifting though space.
Gravity is definitely one to watch in the cinema. The visuals are astounding.
The Star Trek universe is just part of the reason that fans get obsessed. The rest is down to the raw emotion and pure messages that the franchise shares.
It’s hilarious, colorful and insanely charming. It’s not surprising it appeals to both Marvel fans and superhero amateurs alike.
If you prefer practicality over existentialism, this is probably the space movie for you.
Wall-E is a Pixar favorite. It might have been the uncontrollable advancement of technology which got humans to their state in Wall-E but it takes one adorable robot to help people rediscover their humanity.
Alien (1979)
Alien still continues to horrify almost forty years later. The uncanny feel of the movie and the way that silence interacts with shocking sound makes it a classic.

]]>“Quentin Tarantino went into J.J. [Abrams]’s offices and pitched him an idea for a Star Trek movie.” – Urban said at this year’s Trekonderoga. “I know a little bit about what that is and it’s bananas… You shouldn’t worry that it is going to be full of obscenity and stuff. He wants an R-rating to really make those beats of consequence land. If it’s not PG, if someone gets sucked out into space, which we have all seen before, we might see them get disemboweled first… It allows some breadth… gives him some leeway to do that. To me, that was always one of the things I loved about what DeForest Kelley did. He would actually capture the horror of space. That look in his eyes of sheer terror always struck me when I was a kid.”
The overall state of the Star Trek franchise looks great at the moment, with the most recent series Star Trek: Discovery being warmly received by the audience. There is also another television project in the works which will see Patrick Stewart reprising his legendary role of Captain Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation. On the movie front, the things are not so good.
The sequel to 2016’s Star Trek Beyond is still stuck in development, and there are no indications when will the movie enter production. The answer could easily be never since Chris Hemsworth reportedly won’t reprise his role as George Kirk. Chris Pine, who plays the movie’s lead character, Captain James T. Kirk, is also considering dropping out due to contract disputes.
On the other hand, Quentin Tarantino’s project is currently just an idea. The movie is still to enter the production and currently doesn’t have any members of the cast confirmed. Let’s hope that will change soon.

]]>The post “Star Trek: Discovery” Announces Who Will Play Spock appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>Executive producer Alex Kurtzman confirmed at Comic-Con earlier this summer that Spock would indeed be returning in season two of Star Trek: Discovery. The question on everyone’s mind has been who will take on the legendary role.
“Through 52 years of television and film, a parallel universe and a mirror universe, Mr. Spock remains the only member of the original bridge crew to span every era of Star Trek,” Kurtzman said.
“The great Leonard Nimoy, then the brilliant Zachary Quinto, brought incomparable humanity to a character forever torn between logic and emotion. We searched for months for an actor who would, like them, bring his own interpretation to the role. An actor who would, like them, effortlessly embody Spock’s greatest qualities, beyond obvious logic: empathy, intuition, compassion, confusion, and yearning.”
He continued: “Ethan Peck walked into the room inhabiting all of these qualities, aware of his daunting responsibility to Leonard, Zack, and the fans, and ready to confront the challenge in the service of protecting and expanding on Spock’s legacy. In that spirit, we’re thrilled to welcome him to the family.”
The second season of Star Trek Discovery will premiere in 2019.

]]>The executive producer of Star Trek: Discovery has signed a five-year extension with the studio. The new contract entails Kurtzman as the sole showrunner of the sci-fi series.
Kurtzman is also set to expand the Star Trek franchise. He will be developing a new series, miniseries as well as animated content and other projects.
“There is a very short list of writer-producer-directors that every film and television studio wants to be associated with, and Alex and his Secret Hideout team are always at the top,” said David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios in a statement.
“His talent, taste and ability to shepherd a successful project is unparalleled. Alex has done remarkable work for our Studio, dating back seven years to the launch of Hawaii Five-O, and we are thrilled that he, Heather and their team will be partnering with us for a long time to come.”
Rumors are also circulating that Patrick Stewart might potentially reprise his role as Jean-Luc Picard in another Star Trek series. CBS have declined confirming the rumor, although the actor has recently teased his potential return to the franchise. Talking with Red Carpet News TV, he said that he had not seen Star Trek: Discovery yet, but he “may have good cause to look at it very soon.”

Tarantino reportedly wants the script to be R-rated, and he may even direct it if he likes the way it turns out. For now, he is focusing on Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which will allow the studio time to work on the script.
It appears that Tarantino’s Star Trek movie and Star Trek 4 will be in the works at the same time. S.J Clarkson will direct Star Trek 4, making franchise history as the first female director to ever work on the series.
