It&#8217;s a good group of people. It&#8217;s good to see them. I&#8217;m fortunate now to have done it twice. It&#8217;ll be exciting to do it a third time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yelchin has already met <strong>Justin Lin<\/strong>, and had a positive impression of the <em>Star Trek 3<\/em> director. &#8220;I really like him,&#8221; said Yelchin. &#8220;I think he&#8217;s going to do something really interesting with the film. First of all, <strong>J.J.<\/strong> [<strong>Abrams<\/strong>] is brilliant in the way he makes decisions and I think it&#8217;s a big deal that he&#8217;s chosen Justin. I think that already says a lot about him. That&#8217;s how I felt before I met him, but having met him I think his ideas are really interesting. He has a way of looking at it that is going to both reinvigorate it and also relate it closer to the kind of ethos of the original series.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Lin is a different filmmaker so inevitably it is going to be a different approach,&#8221; said Yelchin. &#8220;Obviously I can&#8217;t talk about what kind of a film it&#8217;s going to be. We haven&#8217;t shot it yet, but I think it&#8217;s going to be a film that works with the other two and yet it&#8217;s its own thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While doing press for his latest movie, 5 to 7, due out in the U.S&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413,2818],"tags":[2619],"class_list":["post-40399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","category-star-trek-beyond","tag-yelchin"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/star-trek-beyond\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek Beyond<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek Beyond","comment_count":"17","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40399","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40399"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40399\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40401,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40399\/revisions\/40401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40399"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40399"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40399"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
