Star Trek 4 will be written, directed by Noah Hawley

Star Trek 4 — or, rather, the fourth film in the Star Trek franchise which stars Chris Pine as Captain Kirk and Zachary Quinto as Spock — is back on track and will be directed by Noah Hawley (Legion, Fargo).

The news comes from Deadline Hollywood, which reports that Hawley will write and direct the feature film, producing alongside JJ Abrams and his Bad Robot label. The film was originally to be directed by S.J. Clarkson before she backed out after negotiations with Chris Pine began to crumble.

The film will seemingly be produced in conjunction with another Star Trek film helmed by Once Upon a Time in Hollywood‘s Quentin Tarantino.

We’ll have more on the fourth Star Trek Kelvinverse film as news is made available.

Steve is the founder of Stevivor, which itself is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’ -- that made more sense back in 2001 when Steve first arrived in the country and Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
