Star Trek Sequel Officially Coming Summer 2012

Captain's Log: Stardate 01082010.
News has reached our base (via Coming Soon) on just when we can expect the Star Trek sequel. The highly anticipated follow-up to last summer's J.J. Abrams-helmed reboot will beam onto the silver screens June 29, 2012.
Details for the most part remain under lock and key. The only other thing we definitively know is the return of screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. Also the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise including the new Captain Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto), Bones (Karl Urban) and the rest will seek out new life and new civilizations once again. Thank you very much multiple-picture contracts.
Some might be surprised by this latest development. Before Trek was even released, Paramount went ahead and penciled in a summer 2011 release. But as the year rolled on and all we kept hearing from Kurtzman and Orci was them still throwing around ideas, it became crystal clear that the next installment would instead hit cinemas for summer 2012. If you'll remember, we at TMT previously speculated about this development back in October. So we can honestly say we're not surprised by this news-item. At all.
Nonetheless, it's great to see that things are slowly but surely moving forward on the Star Trek sequel.
