The new Star Trek sequel taking place in JJ's reboot franchise, and beginning principal filming in June this year has just been announced - Star Trek: Beyond. The name has been registered with the Motion Picture Association of America, a pretty formal step to take and hence unlikely to be a set-up for baseless media conjecture. After some pre-production issues including a new script being drafted and producers dropping out, it's been slated for a July 2016 release. The question is, what will the film go beyond in?
The writer and actor Simon Pegg who portrays Montgomery Scott in the reboot has been talking to the Guardian about the film, stating:
"..and it’s a story about frontierism and adventure and optimism and fun, and that’s where we want to take it, you know. Where no man has gone before – where no one has gone before, sensibly corrected for a slighter more enlightened generation. But yeah, that’s the mood at the moment.”
Finally, according to Deadline actress Sofia Boutella, best known most recently for her role as Gazelle in Kingsman: The Secret Service has been signed and cast in the new film. It's currently unknown what precisely she will portray - only that she is signed for a lead role - but this writer believes it unlikely that she will be wielding deadly legs of steel on the bridge of the Enterprise.

But to be serious for once, according to what Pegg says this movie has for the first time the chance to do something else than "paying homage" to original ones...
Go Beyond my fellow Trekkers!
