In what may be the first bit of unequivocal good news to befall Not The Search for Spock, Simon Pegg has been announced as cowriter on the script, alongside the lesser-known Doug Jung. My personal favorite original Trek movie is IV, in large part because it has a lot of humor that is nonetheless in-character and doesn’t go so far that it undermines the premise, as part V did. Having rewatched the Cornetto trilogy again recently, I think Pegg might be the right guy to capture that, if anybody is.

Will Scotty be a miracle worker and get the ship out of danger? He’s done it before…
