(LOS ANGELES) — Paramount has announced a new Star Trek movie, with Fargo and Legion creator Noah Hawley set to write and direct, according to Deadline.
Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Zoe Saldana are also expected to return. The film will would serve as the fourth installment of the franchise J.J. Abrams revamped in 2009.
An earlier version, that would have reunited Pine’s Captain James T. Kirk with his father, played by Chris Hemsworth, was shelved when negotiations with the two actors fell apart.
It should be noted that the upcoming film is also separate from the R-rated “Pulp Fiction in space” Trek project to which Quentin Tarantino has been attached for two years.
