STAR TREK PHASE II FAN SERIES EPISODE "ORIGINS" GOES INTO PRE-PRODUCTION
TrekMovie.com posted an extensive article on the upcoming episode of Star Trek Phase II fan series titled "Origins", now in pre-production, which will tell the story of young James T. Kirk "as he starts his Starfleet career", including his time at the Academy and his first meeting of Mr. Spock, and will try to stay as close to the canon of the prime timeline of the original Star Trek.
"We are honoring the J.J. Abrams movie, but this is a different look at what could have been. This is the prime timeline." actor/producer James Cawley told TrekMovie.
"Origins" is being written and directed by veteran Star Trek writer David Gerrold.
Although the story will be tied to the canon of the TOS version of Star Trek, Cawley tells TrekMovie it will also reference elements from the J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie.
