We thought we&#8217;d get it done in time, but we didn&#8217;t.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, while we have a moment to say, &#8216;Let&#8217;s get the important things figured out,&#8217; then all the pre-production stuff will come. But, I just want to make sure that we&#8217;re putting the story and the characters, the cast and the crew, and most importantly the audience, first before we start talking about exactly which locations we&#8217;re going to be shooting at and what the wardrobe and visual effects budgets are. It just seems important that we get the important stuff right first.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Abrams has not yet officially signed on as a director for<em> Star Trek 2<\/em>. &#8220;We&#8217;re working very hard on it and hopefully we&#8217;ll have something to talk about soon,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to J.J.
