Goldstein and Daley Attached to Write, Produce and Direct New Standalone Star Trek Film

The move signals a pivot at Skydance toward a fresh take with new actors rather than continuing the Chris Pine-led run.

Overview

  • Deadline reports the duo are set to write, produce under their GoldDay banner, and are attached to direct the project for Paramount.
  • Sources describe the film as a completely new take that is not connected to previous movies or current television series.
  • The direction aligns with Skydance founder David Ellison’s recent comments that the next Trek would be “something different” with new actors.
  • Plot, casting and a production timeline have not been disclosed, and the project remains early with no public studio confirmation of details.
  • Goldstein and Daley previously revitalized franchise IP with Spider-Man: Homecoming and Dungeons & Dragons and recently wrapped the Skydance-Apple feature Mayday, while Star Trek has been absent from theaters since 2016.
