Berman, Braga: STAR TREK XI to be New Prequel to Kirk and Feature the Romulan Wars

Features

By Steve Krutzler / 22:56, 8 July 2004 / General Star Trek

In his latest interview with the STAR TREK Communicator, STAR TREK producer Rick Berman elaborates on recent remarks about a "prequel" feature film in development. Berman for the first time says in the new article that the eleventh STAR TREK film will be a prequel set before the time of 'James T. Kirk', but that it will not be related to the fifth television series ENTERPRISE.

Berman's ENTERPRISE partner Brannon Braga let even more loose when discussing the fourth season of the show, according to an excerpt published at TrekToday.

"It's certainly one of the things that we've been discussing," Braga said when asked about future Romulan involvement in the prequel series. "But there's also a prequel feature in development regarding the Romulan Wars, so we might have to stay away from that."

Braga also reportedly says that the series' temporal cold war storyline may come to an end in the beginning of the new season.

"One thing we're discussing is possibly blowing the lid off the Temporal Cold War once and for all," according to the excerpts. "That's probably something we'll do in this first storyline. I can't say that for sure, because we're just getting into it. But I'd really like to resolve that and put a cap on it. It would be a nice thing to do after three seasons of teasing it along."

Apparently he also says that major "intersterllar events" that lead to the founding of the Federation may take place this year, and hinted at something involving the famed Eugenics Wars.

The excerpts can be found here. Stay tuned to TrekWeb for further information and quotes from the magazine. This should be treated as rumor until confirmed.

Sorry, I really am bitter at the moment, I probably did offend someone, but it wasn't my main intention.

Changing the writers isn't going to magically make Enterprise or the next movie any good, even with new writers, especially new ones who have no exposure to the universe and couldn't careless about continuity, I seriously doubt any of the old Trek fans who have deserted the show are going to come back.

"I was told this ship was the pride of Starfleet. I find it is small, and unimpressive."

"Funny, I was about to say the same thing about you."

Archer and Gral spar verbally in: "Babel One."
