Lindelof Trek Sequel Tease

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

It must be difficult to answer the same questions without being able to give out solid information, but for Star Trek XI Producer Damon Lindelof, having a sense of humor helps.

Sometimes, the questions asked must make one scratch one’s head. When asked what the opening sequence of Star Trek XII would be, Lindelof laughed and said “Pan in on…there’s a crawl.  This is what nobody is expecting.  There’s a crawl and it basically says, ‘Years have passed.  Many, many, many years.  So many years, that everybody’s old and gray.’  I’m not telling you anything about that.”

Star Trek XII Speculation

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Star Trek XI is days away its worldwide release, but already talk of a sequel has begun.

Co-writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci and producer Damon Lindelof are considering the future after Star Trek XI, according to Comingsoon.net.

The three have already signed up for a potential sequel and begun early discussions with Director J.J. Abrams. “Alex, Bob and I are going to be writing it together,” said Lindelof. “We’ve started preliminary talks with J.J., but obviously it’s almost jinxing it to get too far down the road. We want it to come out, we hope it does well, and then we’ll take it to the next year. We’re a little curious as to what the audience wants. We’ll start to get a sense of what they are responding to in the movie. We want to write it for them too.”
