Mission Complete

As you may recall, the Star Trek reboot was originally scheduled for a Christmas '08 release before being pushed back to May of '09...

J.J. Abrams has been working on the film as though the date had not changed...



Posting on Facebook the helmer says the film should be locked or fully completed by next week:

"We're just making final tweaks to the movie -- we should be totally locked next week. Then we're going to flash-freeze it so it's totally fresh for you in May.

I can't wait for you to see the movie. The cast is awesome. The action and effects pushed the stunt team and ILM beyond their limits. I'm so grateful to this cast and crew -- and to all of you for your interest and patience."

Completion this far ahead of schedule means leaks are almost assured at some point But positive word of mouth will only build anticipation even higher.

The film is due for release on May 8th...
