“Star Trek 2″ sequel is discussed!

Roberto Orci insists that the next film will not be a remake, while his co – writer Alex Kurtzman explains the villian will have an important role in the second “Star Trek 2″ movie.

We are still one and a half year away before the “Star Trek 2″ hit the theatres. Writers have been working on the script for a movie. “We would never do a remake….it will be some time in the five-year mission,” Orci stated about the set of the second “Star Trek 2″ film. He then added, “But that is a question. Should we pick them up immediately the next day or should it be later, we are still discussing that.”

Later, Kurtzman claimed the villain will have a big part in the sequela:”I think sequels are very much about the villain. Because while [in the first one] the villain serves to bring the crew together, the second one I think has to be a true challenging of what that family is about,” he explained.
It was planned a Summer release for the second installment of  “Star Trek 2” film franchise, locking June 29th, 2012 Slot.

Damon Lindelot has also been tapped to work on the script, while J.J Abrams has not confirmed whether or not he will return to direct this sequel.
