A new Star Trek movie is in the works but, no, we’re not talking about the long-awaited Star Trek 4.
Slightly confusing premise aside, the project is bolstered by the undoubted sci-fi credentials of director Toby Haynes.
You might not know the name, but you’ll know his work: he’s helmed everything from episodes of Sherlock and Doctor Who, to the criminally underappreciated Utopia. In a cute twist, he also directed the Black Mirror episode U.S.S. Callister, itself a twisted take on Star Trek’s tropes.
Need more convincing? Haynes also directed six episodes of Andor, including the incredible One Way Out, which saw Diego Luna’s rebel stage a prison break on Narkina 5.
