‘Star Trek 4’ Writers Detail How Chris Hemsworth’s George Kirk Would Return In Abandoned Sequel

EXCLUSIVE: Signature Entertainment has acquired UK and Irish rights to Chris Pine’s directorial debut Poolman from AGC Studios.

EXCLUSIVE: Outfest will honor the Star Trek franchise with its Visionary Award at the 2022 Outfest Legacy Awards, taking place at Paramount Studios on Saturday, October 22nd. 

Star Trek fans were robbed of an opportunity to see Chris Pine and Chris Hemsworth together in a movie, and we now know more about what we missed out on.

Now, in an interview with Esquire, they have revealed what they had planned.Through a quirk of Starfleet technology, Kirk’s father, George, would have found himself hurtling forward through time and coming face-to-face with his fully grown son, played by Chris Pine, who, of course, is now the beloved captain of the Enterprise. “It was going to be a grand father-son space adventure—think ‘Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade’ in space,” McKay said.

Zack Sharf Patrick McKay and J.D. Payne have found success as the showrunners of Amazon’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,” but before they resurrected Middle Earth it was the Starship Enterprise they tried to get off the ground. McKay and Payne wrote a “Star Trek Beyond” sequel for director S.J. Clarkson that would’ve served as the fourth film in the J.J. Abrams-backed reboot series starring Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana and more. The script, which McKay and Payne have rarely spoken about, featured Chris Hemsworth returning as George Kirk, father of Pine’s James Kirk. “I would love to tell you about it,” McKay told Esquire magazine, opening up in detail for the first time about the “Star Trek” movie never made. “We worked on a couple of ‘Star Trek’ movies. The one you’re asking about would have been the fourth in the franchise, reuniting Chris Hemsworth and Chris Pine. The conceit was that through a cosmic quirk in the ‘Star Trek’ world, they were the same age. It was going to be a grand father-son space adventure—think ‘Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade’ in space. We were really thrilled about it.”

There is nothing worse than when your revenge plot gets sidetracked by a group of dangerous robbers.
