Of course, sci-fi fans and Trekkies alike may be thankful for his involvement on Paramount Pictures’s third installation of the Star Trek reboot epic, Star Trek: Beyond. The latest trailers since then have all been exciting and stimulating along with several key bits of artwork, which much of that energy is ado with those grieving over the loss of its co-star, Anton Yelchin last week.
All for the better though, the studio’s promotional campaign rolls on for a film that will undoubtedly pay tribute to Yelchin whose brilliant adaptation to Walter Koenig’s iconic role as ensign Chekov further helps embody the overall gravitas and splendor of the new trilogy today. The late Yechin joins Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoë Saldana, Karl Urban, Jon Cho, Simon Pegg, Sofia Boutella and Idris Elba for the film’s July 22 release.
SYNOPSIS:
“Star Trek Beyond,” the highly anticipated next installment in the globally popular Star Trek franchise, created by Gene Roddenberry and reintroduced by J.J. Abrams in 2009, returns with director Justin Lin (“The Fast and the Furious” franchise) at the helm of this epic voyage of the U.S.S. Enterprise and her intrepid crew. In “Beyond,” the Enterprise crew explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a mysterious new enemy who puts them and everything the Federation stands for to the test.
