I ’m shooting True Detective in Ventura , and it ’s a Thursday . I get a call from J.J. Abrams , and he ’s like , ‘ Hey military man , just funny , do you like “ Star Trek ? ' I ’m like , ‘ I grew up watching “ Star Trek ” with my pop , it has so much significance . ’ He said , ‘ Would you pass off to have an idea for a “ Star Trek ” movie ? ’ And I said , ‘ Are n’t you in pre - production ? ’ And he said , ‘ Nope , no , we ’re keep out down . ’ He said , ‘ If you have an idea , would you want to come by the office on Monday ? ’ So , on Monday , I sit down with J.J. and partake with him the thought of Star Trek Beyond . ’He ’s like , ‘ Great ! ’ And this is the end of January . He say , ‘ Let ’s do it , but we have to pop yield in June . ’ No handwriting . Nothing … It was tough . The toughest matter I ’ve ever had to do .
Simon [ Pegg ] and I joke about it now , but It was intense , I had drop out three times , and Simon had quit four times … also we did n’t know each other … For me , Simon Pegg , it was a dream to have the chance to work with him , but he comes from a very traditional process … But I ’m sitting there in Vancouver and I have to start building set . ‘ Star Trek ’ is not like ‘ Fast and Furious , ’ every estimation you arrive up with is a frame . And we had no time … have it away Simon and Doug [ Jung , co - writer ] , but it wasrough , andI did n’t bang if we were going to make it out of that first workweek .
Star Trek Beyond prepare up a sequel for Chris Pine ’s Captain Kirk and the Kelvin Timeline crew , but it ’s 8 old age later and we ’ve yet to see Star Trek 4 .

Justin Lin currently hold the distinction of being the last person to organize a theatricalStar Trekmovie . Star Trek Beyonddidn’t perform as well at the loge office as the two priorStar Trekmovies orchestrate by J.J. Abrams , and Paramount Pictures has been unable to establish a fourthStar Trekmovie since 2016 . heavy - name filmmaker like S.J.
