Quentin Tarantino’s Star Trek Film Will Be Rated R

CelebNMovies247.com has learned that Paramount and producer J.J. Abrams have agreed to the condition that Tarantino Star Trek film will be Rated R.

The big news dropped earlier this week that Tarantino’s Star Trek pitch was heading to a writers’ room.

Tarantino Star Trek Film Will Be Rated R Details:

Deadline reports Tarantino met with Mark L. Smith, Lindsey Beer, and Drew Pearce, with Smith (The Revenant). The director is eyeing Mark L. Smith s the frontrunner to pen the script.

It’s being said that the goal is to move quickly the Star Trek installment, having the movie written while Tarantino is busy filming a movie based on the Manson summer of 1969 with Margot Robbie.

The change up from PG to R is all due to the success of ox’s success with Deadpool in 2016 earning $783 million worldwide.

Is this a good change for Star Trek? It’s questionable, but as always its about making money and NOT being consistent to the thread or integrity of what has been established with this franchise for over 5 decades.

Tarantino came into the picture after chopping it up on the Nerdist podcast, where he discussed his love for certain Star Trek episodes, like Harlan Ellison’s “City on the Edge of Forever.” If you recall the episode had the crew of the Enterprise flung back in time after a medical accident sends Doctor Leonard McCoy fleeing from the ship.

Tarantino went on to argue the best Star Trek episode scripts could easily be expanded into 90-minute movies.

He said:

“I think they might have trapped themselves a little bit by the simple fact that they have to use all the crew now. In all the films, they’ve established it so much that you need Uhura, you need Scotty, you need Bones, you need all that stuff going on all the time. Everybody has to be represented in some big story where they all have to deal. I actually think it could be cool because some of those episodes are fantastic and the only thing that limited them was their ’60s budget and their eight-day shooting schedule – and even having said that they did a magnificent job. But you could take some of the great, classic Star Trek episodes and just easily expand them to 90 minutes or more, and really do some amazing, amazing stuff.”

We will see if this pans out for Paramount, or if it was a HUGE mistake. We feel that Quentin Tarantino can pull this off.

We wish that someone would do another Lost In Space, but the episode where the Robinson family gets cloned and Will and Dr Smith has to save them. It could be done in a horror genre manor, while making fun of the first film fiasco. It would be nice to have Matt Leblanc return, but this time be the father instead.
