In the opening sequence of J.J. Abrams first Star Trek movie, Hemsworth plays George Kick, father of Chris Pine’s James T. Kirk.
The news came from a press conference for Star Trek Beyond that Abrams took part in, and he seemed very optimistic about the possibility for a Star Trek 4.
Collider is reporting that Abrams, who directed the first two installments of the rebooted Star Trek, already has plans for Star Trek 4 in the works.
It may seem a bit forward to already be discussing a fourth Star Trek installment when most people haven’t even seen Star Trek Beyond yet, but Paramount clearly has confidence in the movie, as they probably should.
