“Star Trek 3″ is set to debut in 2016 and will be directed by Roberto Orci. He is the man who co-wrote the first two movies, “The Amazing Spider-Man 2″ and the first two “Transformers” movies. According to an interview, he promises that he will stay true to its roots.
He told: “In this movie, they are closer than they are to the original series characters that you have ever seen. They have set off on their five-year mission. So their adventure is going to be in deep space. In the first two films – especially the 2009 ['Star Trek'] – was an origin story. It was about them coming together. So they weren’t the characters they were in the original series. They were growing into them and that continues on in the second movie.”
