Star Trek Movie Trailer

While Paramount Pictures set May 8, 2009 as the new release date for the Star Trek movie, all trekkies out there can enjoy the new Star Trek movie trailer available on the Internet. While Star Trek fans are eager to find out what J.J. Abrams did with their so much beloved franchise, the director and cast members went to Seoul in February to promote the movie and said that the intention of the studio was to create a Star Trek movie that would not continue where the series left off, but would be a fresh beginning, targeting a new generation of potential Star Trek fans.

When the third Star Trek movie trailer was released, it was the single most downloaded trailer ever, breaking every record in number of downloads within the first 24 hours. It only indicates that the interest for the movie is extremely high, regardless of whether critically inclined fans wanted a glimpse of how J.J. Abrams went about it, or future fans wanted to brace themselves for a new adventure.

The new cast members were given freedom to play the characters in an original way, rather than impersonating actors who enlivened them in the productions of the series. James T. Kirk is portrayed by Chris Pine, Captain Christopher Spike by Bruce Greenwood, Spock by Zachary Quinto and the list of characters and actors goes on and on. When it comes to the character of Uhura, played by Zoe Saldana, she is given a first name for the first time on screen, even though in the DC Comics publication “Who’s Who in Star Trek“, she has been known as Nyota Uhura. Watch out for the release date in your country, but don’t forget it is in May if you are eager to see the complete scenes now available only in short movie trailers.
