Trek 2: Bigger Budget- Better Engine Room

Chatting with Trek Movie, writer Roberto Orci has dropped some tid-bits about the long-awaited still as yet Untitled Star Trek Sequel.


Orci confirms that the film's budget will be bigger than the $145 million of "Star Trek" '09 due to the fact that the scale of the film is a lot bigger.

One of the more complained about sets in the first film was the brewery-style engine room - that has undergone an upgrade with some "cool improvements" and you'll also get to see more of it.

Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin John Cho and Bruce Greenwood have all returned to the Final Frontier in their respective roles as Kirk Spock Uhura Dr. McCoy Scotty Chekov Sulu and Admiral Pike.

The Supporting Cast Includes Nazneen Contractor who will play the wife of Noel Clarke’s family man character Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch has landed the role as the still unknown bad guy while Alice Eve has a major role as does former "Robocop" star Peter Weller and actor/stuntman Joseph Gatt

Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Damon Lindelof wrote the script for director J.J. Abrams.

The sequel will be produced by Abrams, Kurtzman, Orci, Lindelof, Bryan Burk, and David Ellison.

The film will be released May 17, 2013 in 3D.
