New ‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ Trailer Puts the Focus Back on Kirk & Co.
We’re only two months away now from J.J. Abrams‘ hotly anticipated sequel, Star Trek Into Darkness. (So anticipated, in fact, that it won Most Anticipated Movie of 2013 at our 2nd Annual Flickcharters Choice Awards in February.)
This past weekend, Paramount released another trailer that promises a big return to the action and adventure of 2009‘s Star Trek. In a quick minute, it shifts the focus a bit away from Benedict Cumberbatch‘s mysterious, menacing villain, John Harrison (sounds like a Beatle), back to the brash James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and his crew. (It also delivers a sequence that feels more than just a little like Star Wars, with a suspiciously familiar-looking disc-shaped ship, and should eradicate any doubts that may linger that Abrams is just the right guy to direct Episode VII.)
Another full trailer is due to be released with G.I. Joe: Retaliation at the end of the month, but in the meantime, this is a great new tease with plenty of new footage to digest. “This is gonna be fun,” Kirk promises. Check it out.
