alonewiththemoonFrom scifi.com:
Paramount has hired Mission: Impossible III director J.J. Abrams to write, direct and produce the 11th Star Trek feature film, aiming for a 2008 release, Variety reported. Damon Lindelof, who co-created Lost with Abrams, and Bryan Burk, who produces Lost, have also been tapped to produce the yet-to-be-titled feature.
The project will be co-written by Mission: Impossible III scribes Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci. It will center on the early days of original Trek characters James T. Kirk and Mr. Spock, including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and first space mission, the trade paper reported.
I would be skeptical about the plot idea, but with the Lost team on board, I am willing to allow myself to genuinely look forward to a new ST movie. Wonder who they will cast... maybe Wil Wheaton can have a role ;-)
