HeyUGuys nabbed Damon Lindelof last night at the premiere of Star Trek Into Darkness and quizzed him about any possible plans for future movies. The producer said that even on the first film they had an idea for what they wanted to include in the second in terms of the villain etc, and this led to the obvious question: Do they have plans in place for the third, and do they know who the primary antagonist(s) will be?
“I think that is a reasonable conclusion. You should always know where you’ve been, you should always know where you are, but most importantly, and I learned this from Lost, you should know where you’re going. You can never see enough Klingons, and I think in this film we’ve given the audience a little taste, but there’s also a promise that there’s a larger conflict on the horizon, and that would be fun to see.”
Lindelof also reckons there's a good chance that Benedict Cumberbatch will return to terrorize the crew of The Enterprise again -- but only if he survives
Into Darkness of course! He also says there's a possibility of seeing the likes of Q and The Borg enter the fray, and even eventually some type of
Next Generation crossover -- but I'd assume this is all wishful thinking for now. Click on the link below for the full interview.
