Star Trek Beyond<\/em> will be a movie for everyone, says Simon Pegg<\/strong>, and not just a Fiftieth Anniversary rehash of Trek’s greatest moments.<\/p>\n

Established fans will enjoy the movie though, Pegg explained. “No [it’s not a Greatest Hits], but it’s a later iteration, obviously. I think for real fans of Star Trek<\/em>, they’ll get a real kick out of the fact that it very much is Star Trek<\/em> in its DNA. We’re at pains to maintain the canon that we’ve created and the canon that exists for Star Trek<\/em>. But never make it feel like it’s a closed shop; that people aren’t welcome to come into it and buy a packet of chips or a bottle of milk.<\/p>\n

“I think it’s just knowing what’s gone before, in a way, but at the same time understanding that this is a story which and always has been open to everybody. This is a universe that is so inclusive; no one is not welcome in Star Trek<\/em>. So it has to embrace the fans that have been there for fifty years, and it has to embrace the people who go, ‘Oh, Star Trek<\/em>, what’s that?’ Hopefully it gives them a chance to find out!”<\/p>\n

Pegg also spoke about Star Trek Beyond<\/em> to MTV<\/em>, telling them that this time, “the Enterprise would be off on its five-year mission.” The goal this time was to make “a film that lots of people could go and see and say, ‘Hey what’s this Star Trek<\/em>?’ And then go back fifty years.<\/p>\n

“For the people that have been there for fifty years it was fun to make something that they would see as part of that continuum.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
