Actor Simon Pegg has provided an update on the future of Star Trek movies–and unfortunately for fans, it doesn’t sound like there will be a new film anytime soon. Speaking to Collider, the actor who plays Scotty started off by reflecting on the death of Anton Yelchin, who played Chekov in the new Star Trek films.
"For us, losing Anton Yelchin the way we did was a real blow," Pegg said. "And I think it slightly took the wind out of our sails in terms of our enthusiasm to do another one, just because we’re now missing one of our family. He would be conspicuous by his absence."
Pegg went on to say that he remains in contact with the rest of the Star Trek cast–they are checking in with each other over email. However, no one is pushing Paramount to make more movies right now.
