Paste Magazine just posted a new interview with Star Trek movie co-writer Alex Kurtzman and here are few excerpts.
Paste: And you're doing the biggest sacred cow, which we're not really supposed to talk about, that's coming up.
Kurtzman: (laughing) I can certainly talk about process on that particular sacred cow. Star Trek is obviously such a beloved, beloved thing, not just in television but the movies and even in the books. That one is particularly not ours. So, it felt like because we were such enormous fans of it as kids, for us it was getting back to the spirit of that.
Paste: Do you have to think, "Okay, how's this going to fit today's audience?" Or do you just go ahead and try to fit what you like today?
Kurtzman: My partner, Bob [Orci] and I, we've been writing together for 17 years, and we always look at the work from the place of what do we want to see as an audience member. So, hopefully, until we get out of date, our tastes will dovetail with what audiences are wanting to see. Obviously, you can't please everybody. But, we definitely grew up on Trek, love Trek and have been studying it since we were little kids. So, as scary as it was taking the leap to inheriting that mantle I think we also felt that between us and J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof and Bryan Burk, it was a team that really put that movie together. We knew that there was safety in numbers and that, in a way, each of us represented a different perspective what Trek is, and that, between the five of us, we probably had most of our bases covered.
