2026 will mark the 10-year anniversary of Star Trek Beyond, the third movie that took place in the sci-fi franchise’s alternate Kelvin timeline. There have been numerous attempts to get the informally-known Star Trek 4 off the ground since then, only to be met with obstacles and setbacks. Well, it seems like we finally have a concrete update on the Kelvin timeline’s future, and unfortunately, it doesn’t bode well for Chris Pine’s Kirk, Zachary Quinto’s Spock and the rest of the crew of the alternate USS Enterprise-A.
In a Variety report delving into Paramount’s first 100 days under new CEO David Ellison’s ownership, it’s mentioned that Star Trek is one of the franchises that the studio is looking to reinvigorate. However, while there is the hope that a new Star Trek theatrical movie can be made, Paramount has reportedly “moved on” from it being Star Trek 4. If this information is accurate, then apparently we need to make peace with the Kelvin timeline being gone for good.
