Chris Pine should return to theStar Trekfranchise , but I do n’t cerebrate he should inevitably return as Captain James T. Kirk . Chris Pine began his journey into the concluding frontier in JJ Abrams’Star Trek ( 2009 ) , recreate a theatrical role many idea would only ever belong to William Shatner . Pine brought Kirk ’s humour , bravery , and selflessness back to lifeafter Shatner ’s last on - screen visual aspect as the good captain in 1994’sStar Trek : coevals . Pine go on to star in two more reboot films , Star Trek : Into Darknessin 2014 andStar Trek : Beyondin 2016 .

Since then , Chris Pine has n’t reappeared in anyStar Trektimeline , neither movie nor boob tube show . However , in his sentence back on Earth , Pine has dipped his toes into other areas of the entertainment industry by publish , directing , and producing project . In 2023 , Pine wrote , directed , produce , and star in his filmPoolman . All of this happened as thesequel toStar Trek : Beyondwas being give back and forth between originative teams . I cerebrate Chris Pine should head one of those team and make the subtle sequel a reality .

Chris Pine Should Come Back To Star Trek As A Director

Poolman Proved Pine’s Willingness And Ability To Direct A Movie

AlthoughPoolmanwas not a decisive or commercial achiever , it indicates Pine has a future behind the television camera . He seems to savor the artwork of filmmaking , from behind - the - scenes details to recreate the starring role . To me , Pine ’s first movie as a directorisn’t measured by caliber , but rather by his willingness to make it in the first office . After decade of acting , it ’s courteous to see such a familiar side take on other roles in the industry and wear different creative hats . DespitePoolman ’s wretched reception , Pine now has experience lead a film projection .

Chris Pine would be felicitous to toy Captain Kirk in Star Trek again , and he wonder what playing his version of a middle - aged Kirk would be like .

Since we knowChris Pine wants to make a low - budgetStar Trekmovieto please foresighted - clip fans , now is the perfect time to see that ambition come to fruition . Even if the original crew of JJ Abrams ' reboot film does n’t return , Pine could still try his hand at aStar Trekfilm in the near future . Since the franchise ’s first - ever cyclosis pic , Michelle Yeoh’sStar Trek : subdivision 31 , is set to premiere in 2025,the possibilities for Pine ’s originative journey intoStar Trekare endless . Both film and tv set project are potential boulevard for a Pine - led project .

Chris Pine was , and still is , extremely democratic as Captain Jim Kirk . He had all the charisma that William Shatner brought to the part , plus he added even more complexity to the type by showcasing personal struggles .

Numbers dwindled over the three picture show , but none of them were disappointments . Thanks to a vernal , millennian interview , Pine is still very much tie in withStar Trek .

The viewers who spring up up with Chris Pine ’s Captain Kirk are now a Brobdingnagian part of the modern box part . sleep together that Pine is behind aStar Trekproject would positively influence the consultation and generate a caboodle of pursuit in the task . The nostalgia tied to the reboot films would be a immense factor in a unexampled picture ’s success . With aStar Trekprequel motion-picture show specify largely on Earthreportedly in the works , I think a Chris Pine small - budget continuation toStar Trek : Beyondcould be the perfect equaliser to a franchise that ’s being break in a lot of dissimilar steering .
