Quentin Tarantino’s Star Trek Movie Would’ve Been Gamechanger, Says Star
Zoe Saldaña says that a Star Trek film from director Quentin Tarantino would have been a game changer. Saldaña first made an appearance in the world of Star Trek as NyotaUhura in J.J. Abrams' 2009 reboot of the beloved sci-fi franchise. She then reprised her role in both sequels, Star Trek Into Darkness and Star Trek Beyond.

In what may seem like an unexpected turn, rumors have been floating about for quite some time that famed Hollywood director Tarantino had his own Star Trek film in the works. He has been open about the fact that he is a Star Trek fan, though the director himself has never made a franchise film. While it is unknown exactly how long Tarantino has been playing around with the idea of making his own Trek film, it is known that he did approach Paramount through Abrams with his idea, and for a time, it seemed like the studio was quite keen on what he was bringing to the table. However, with the announcement of the fourth Kelvin Timeline film coming without Tarantino's name attached, the chances that his Star Trek film will ever see the light of day seem slim.
