Star Trek: Lower Decks creator Mike McMahan wants more Star Trek movies, and here's why movies are an important gateway to the franchise.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Star Trek needs new movies, according to Star Trek: Lower Decks creator Mike McMahan. The last Star Trek movie released theatrically was Star Trek Beyond in 2016, and a fourth J.J. Abrams-produced Star Trek movie has been mired in development hell for years.
Appearing on a Star Trek panel at the Revenge Of Comics Creators Block Party in Los Angeles alongside other creators like Star Trek: Picard season 3 showrunner Terry Matalas, Star Trek: Lower Decks' executive producer Mike McMahan made his passionate plea for more Star Trek movies. Read his quote below:
I think should get their movies made. I think there should be new movies. I want to see movies with the crew that we’ve seen. I want to see Pine again. I want to see that crew. And I want to see more movies. I want to see more f****** Star Trek movies. Like, what are they doing? I’m a TV guy, I’ve got a lot of TV, I’ve got a lot of comics, but there are no movies. Get your s*** together, new Star Trek movies all the f***** time, please.
Why Star Trek Movies Are So Important To The Franchise Star Trek movies are a crucial gateway to creating new fans. Close Mike McMahan is right that Star Trek needs to relaunch its dormant movie franchise. An important reason why came from the Revenge Of block party's Star Trek panelists themselves.
After the WGA writer's strike was resolved, Paramount Pictures reportedly prioritized a new Star Trek movie, which could possibly be another reboot. While audiences still want to see Chris Pine return to lead the USS Enterprise crew as Captain James T. Kirk, Star Trek could also expand beyond the Starship Enterprise for the first time and create new characters for a rebooted movie saga.
