UPDATE 07.26.07: At Comic-Con 2007 it was announced that Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy will portray Spock in the upcoming film.

In April of 2006 it was announced that Paramount Pictures will produce an 11th Star Trek movie, for release in 2008, under the creative leadership of J.J. Abrams. Abrams will produce and direct the film, and the script is being written by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, whom Abrams partnered with on "Mission: Impossible III."

There is no title for the film yet — at this time it is simply being referred to as "Star Trek XI." But it is scheduled for release in theaters on Christmas Day in 2008.

It has been rumored that the story will focus on the early days of James T. Kirk and Spock, including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and their first mission in space.
