Paramount Pictures released the first trailer for Star Trek Beyond on December 14, 2015. It was subsequently released along with Star Wars: The Force Awakens, so you’ve probably already seen it. But, for those who haven’t here is the teaser trailer for the new Star Trek film (see above).
Star Trek Beyond is being directed by Fast and Furious alumni Justin Lin from a script by Simon Pegg and Doug Jung, with J.J. Abrams producing. The film is set to feature returning cast members Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, and John Cho and new characters played by Idris Elba, Sofia Boutella, and Joe Taslim.
Star Trek Beyond will be released in theaters and in IMAX on July 22, 2016. Until then, let us know what you think of the teaser trailer.
