Kirk may be install as Captain of the Enterprise at the head start of Star Trek Into Darkness , but that does n’t signify he ’s impregnable in that persona , as some new patch hints make clear . Maybe Guardians of the Galaxy has n’t found its Star Lord after all . Joss Whedon and Patrick Stewart are mad for S.H.I.E.L.D. and X - Men : solar day of Future Past , respectively , even if they ca n’t say very much . Could Bubba Nosferatu still pass ?
Spoilers from here on out !

Wealready saw some promo imagesfor the approaching Star Trek sequel from Empire Magazine , but now here ’s a raw snip of plot verbal description :
https://gizmodo.com/brand-new-star-trek-into-darkness-photos-include-cumber-5971051
With Earth under terrorist fire from Benedict Cumberbatch ’s ex - Starfleet employee John Harrison , Kirk is this clock time drive into a rash determination that breaks a critical Starfleet bid , puts his crew in danger & costs him his captain ’s chairwoman . Now out of uniform and dressed down in quad civies of black leather jackets and kick , our three heroes have separated from the Enterprise and headed off on a delegacy to try and repair his misunderstanding …

I imagine the “ three heroes ” is made clear in the original article , but it probably refers to Kirk , Spock , and Uhura , whom we see in the black leather jackets in the house trailer . [ Bleeding Cool ]
Writer Damon Lindelof explains why the novel timeline has n’t quite caught up yet to the clip period of the original show :
Our crew is not inevitably caught up to where Kirk and Bones and Spock were , not even Chekov yet , when we first met them in the original series . So if you ’re going to do something you ’ve stimulate to do your homework … Our guide rule was that there was a sure level of excitement in that if the first moving picture was to use Ms. Pac Man terminology , “ they fulfill ” , the 2d interruption is go bad to be the falling in love part . The estimation that the fictional character are all sort of get to know each other , but do n’t know each other all that well yet . Certainly Kirk and Bones have a relationship because we lay down that they fill each other and were fairly close all though the Academy . So those guys are squiffy , and were tight in the first and remain pissed . But a lot of the others , especially now that Kirk is in command of these people as pit to “ I ’m the insolent rabble - waker running around the ship trying to secern everybody what I think they necessitate to be doing . ” Now he ’s in mission . That was a very interesting moral force to bring with because , again , it was n’t something that we ’ve see before . The only Enterprise that were intimate with is where Kirk has been the Captain , nobody ever wonder his judgment , he know what he ’s doing and occasionally gets in trouble , but he has the trust and love of everybody under his statement . But there was a phase that preceded that and that ’s the phase into which Into Darkness play . So that ’s very exciting for us .

He also hash out the enlarge role of 23rd century Earth in the sequel :
I do n’t want to get into percentages of how much occupy place on Earth and how much drive place off Earth , suffice to say I retrieve one of the things we finger a lot of people did n’t acknowledge about Star Trek was that they did n’t think that Star Trek was the future . You take something like Star Wars ; Star Wars is not the future . It ’s a long clip ago in a galaxy far , far aside and Luke Skywalker is not a human being and is n’t from the satellite Earth . The idea in Star Trek , they are . They ’re in the 23rd century and these multitude are from Earth . The Earth needed to bring more of a role in these moving-picture show , particularly in the sense of giving the audience a level of relatability . I guess that in the same agency that New York City becomes this anchor tip for people in the Marvel movies ; that ’s Spidey ’s stump primer coat , that was the stomping ground for Tony Stark , that was the stomping soil for The Avengers , it ’s New York . We want to do the same thing with Earth in the Star Trek picture .
in the end , he discusses the inclusion of a immature , alternate timeline version of Kirk ’s onetime Wrath of Khan dear interest group Carol Marcus , as played by Alice Eve . Crucially , it fathom like there ’s no warrant she ’ll keep up her prime - timeline path and have an matter with Kirk :

It was an thought that , of all the ideas that we had about the sequel and the motion-picture show , induce Carol in the 2d movie was something that we all agree was a good idea . The follow up question is how are we perish to apply her ? What persona is she going to fiddle ? Is she going to be a dear pastime for Kirk or something else ? And what would that something else be ? … So we had to face at Carol as , as opposed to she ’s a fresh grapheme that we want you to yield tending to , how can she interact with all those other bozo in a mode that does n’t take aside from them , but enhances them ?

The capital Patrick Stewart offers another vague update on his return as Professor X for Bryan Singer ’s cristal - humans : First Class followup :

I ’m very happy to report that Bryan Singer is come up back to direct the motion picture . I ’m very happy that my lovely booster Ian McKellen is live on to be with me . I do n’t make out anyone else who is to be involved in the project . peradventure it ’s just the two of us ! That would be a film ! Magneto and Xavier ’s conversations … I ’m not being cunning . That ’s all I know . Maybe once the holidays are over , more selective information will begin to make out through . I have a shadowy idea of the time committedness , but I do n’t have it off where we ’re going to shoot . But I ’m greatly depend forward to it .

While it ’s believably respectable to not carry out … well , any Leslie Townes Hope that the sequel to Don Coscarelli and Bruce Campbell ’s amazing Bubba Ho - tep will ever get made , possible ace Paul Giamatti is still reserve out hope :

When I first met Don , it was just through queer circumstances . We got together and he assure me he had the idea for a sequel to that , and I read the script , which was great . I do n’t get it on how much I would want to give away about it , though . The part I would play would be Colonel Parker , who was Elvis ’ manager , and it was always a menacing relationship between the two of them , with how he had such controller over him . The movie answers that question . It ’s a lamia flick , and that ’s part of how he has a clench over him . It ’s a fantastical script ! It ’s different from the other one , but it ’s still all about aging and compromising yourself . The way Bubba Ho - Tep was about mother old , this one ’s about being middle - senior , in a great way of life . I hope that peradventure we can still get it done ‘ cause it ’s a really swell script .

Joss Whedon offers some supporting if rather cryptic words about his the S.H.I.E.L.D. pilot he ’s develop for ABC :
There ’s been enormous advancement . We are trundling along , I ca n’t portion out much . And by much I think anything . I can say that “ S.H.I.E.L.D ” come together in a very organic manner . And part of my taking “ Avengers 2 ” was that I ’d have the opportunity to act upon in the Marvel universe . I did n’t exactly know I ’d be run a TV show five minute later .

On top of your commitment to Bellwether …
Yeah , but it ’s something I really believe in . Although,”Avengers ” is the top of my inclination of exciting Modern things , “ S.H.I.E.L.D. ” is really sing to me .

Rubicon and Medium thespian Arliss Howard has been cast as Truman Burell , who is — and this is by far my favorite eccentric the verbal description ever — the governor of Louisiana who is “ a honorable ol’ boy politician [ with ] a major bitch with vampires ever since his married woman ran off with one , depart him as a single father to their only girl . ” Oh , and he ’s “ politically savvy and perhaps excessively ambitious , [ and he ] incline to let his personal intake eclipse his human beings ” , but really , it ’s the whole hat vampires because his married woman ran off with one thing that ’s just awful .

Tyler ’s first order of line of work really is to mourn . This is the last thing he ever expect that would happen , and the loss of his mom is a middling powerful thing for him . When we come back we ’re croak to see he ’s not in reality doing so well . He ’s got some poppycock to deal with before he ’s going to pull himself together .
Is it dependable to say the curative is the last affair on his psyche ?
Oh yeah , for certain . He ’s if anything swag and looking over his articulatio humeri wondering if Klaus is there to chop up his head word off . Also , I ’m certain [ he ’s ] trying to figure out if there ’s any move he can make or anything he can do to find the upper mitt against Klaus , although it looks pretty bare . It ’s not without its solutions , but it ai n’t pretty .

How is the state of his family relationship with Caroline ?
It ’s currently a picayune bit tested because of the upshot of this sequence , but gratefully they were able to make things right-hand with each other before tragedy strike . Caroline ’s last to be more interested about him when we come back and really need to reconnect with him and make him open up up to her so that she can help him heal from this experience .
