New developments on director Justin Lin's "Star Trek: Beyond", set to be released next month, features short snippets of dialogue and new footage fans of the reboot are waiting for. Also adding to the strong feel of the movie is Rihanna's come back EP "Sledgehammer", according to a Comic Book Movie post.
Many have been also speculating on the name for the new "Star Trek: Beyond" movie's alternate timeline. Go ahead, read on.
After stopping off at Starbase Earhart, a remote outpost on the fringes of Federation space, the USS Enterprise, halfway into their five-year mission, is destroyed by a powerful, unstoppable wave of unknown aliens.
The Star Fleet crew is seemingly stranded without obvious signs for rescue. Plus, they also find themselves facing a new powerful enemy who reveals his long-time hatred for the Federation and everything that goes with it.
Joining the returning cast are newcomers Sofia Boutella ("Kingsman: The Secret Service") and Idris Elba ("Zootopia"). The newest full-length trailer for "Star Trek: Beyond" sees the U.S.S. Enterprise crew members scattered in an unknown alien location, with other alien-like, humanoid species, and fending for their lives.
It has also been revealed that the alternate timeline would be called the Kelvin Timeline, which was introduced in the 2009 "Star Trek" reboot. Aptly named after the starship that was destroyed by Eric Bana's Nero in the opening scene. Who could also forget that scene (which killed James Kirk's father)? Anyway, as the young Kirk joins Star Fleet as a "dare" - he also realizes the ultimate sacrifice his father did.
Also, the Kelvin timeline for "Star Trek: Beyond" was a memorable reference to J. J. Abram's grandfather, whom the director idolized in real life, IGN reported. The new timeline was further confirmed by CBS Consumer Products' Holly Amos (@hollyamos22) saying the in-universe term was a way to refer it in the encyclopedia.
