Like John on a Battlestar Galactica rant, the rumours flying around the net about JJ Abrams leaving the next Star Trek Movie project are loud, rampant, and out of control. Harry tries his best to keep things under control.
AICN.comreports:
Hey folks, Harry here… 2 days ago I got sent a “SCOOP: JJ ABRAMS IS OFF STAR TREK MOVIE” rumor. Well, thanks to my interview with JJ back around the time of MI3 that I did for Penthouse, I had JJ’s contact info and sent his Blackberry a, “Is this BS or not” email. JJ wrote back in about 20 minutes with a one word response, ‘False!” – I then wrote him back to say, “Well, heads up, somebody is trying to spread that rumor.” – I then wrote the scooper back to say JJ says it ain’t so. Shortly later, JJ responded with, “Haha!”
So its not true, apparently.
Either way, I like the idea of Abrams on it, I just wish they would decide on a direction.
Reboot the Trek. It’s dead Jim.
