JJ Abrams Will Be Directing 'Star Trek 2'


JJ Abrams is moving toward a commitment to direct Star Trek 2.

Abrams has just returned from vacation and is sitting down with writers Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Damon Lindelof to work on the Star Trek script and beginning preperation for the sequel that will likely begin production in January and either be dated for release for the fourth quarter of 2012 or summer 2013.

Abrams hasn't officially committed to the project or approved a script yet, but the studio has exercised its option on the cast and they will be ready when Abrams is. All this means that Chris Pine will definitely play Captain Kirk before he reboots Jack Ryan for the same studio.
