Next Star Trek movie confirms all-new cast and timeline

The filmmakers say the movie will not revisit previous crews or characters and could take Star Trek into a later era of the timeline.

  • Filmmakers Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley are developing an all-new Star Trek film, creating a departure from established franchise history with a fresh storyline and entirely new cast.
  • With no other small-screen projects announced after Strange New Worlds and Starfleet Academy conclude their runs, the film provides a fresh canvas for the franchise at a crucial turning point.
  • Goldstein and Daley bring experience from the critically praised 2018 comedy Game Night and the 2023 fantasy adventure Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, plus screenplay work on Spider-Man: Homecoming.
  • One possibility is setting the movie after the events of Picard but before The Burn, which occurred in 3069, reshaping the galaxy in Star Trek's established timeline.
  • Daley kept specific plot details under wraps while noting the project is moving forward and expects to surprise longtime fans with its direction.
