read from CBR:

Paramount Pictures' next Star Trek feature film is set to enter production before the year is out, with the studio officially planning to reunite the Enterprise crew featured in 2009's Star Trek, 2013's Star Trek Into Darkness and 2016's Star Trek Beyond.

As part of today's Viacom Investor Event, Paramount exec Brian Robbins and Star Trek producer J.J. Abrams confirmed that Paramount's next Trek movie is currently targeting a late-2022 production start. Additionally, the studio has entered talks with Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, John Cho and Simon Pegg to reprise their respective roles of James T. Kirk, Spock, Nyota Uhura, Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy, Hikaru Sulu and Montgomery "Scotty" Scott.

The next Star Trek movie is set to be directed by Matt Shakman, known for his work on Marvel Studios' Disney+ series WandaVision, with the aforementioned Abrams producing. Abrams previously produced and directed Star Trek '09 and Into Darkness, before returning to produce the Justin Lin-directed Beyond.

Wonder on the story in this one...

The last one I saw (Beyond) was pretty good even if I didn't get the references to other things in the series. I would expect the same level of polish as that one.

Read an update, from trekmovie

According to the trade, the “Star Trek 4” sequel to 2016’s Star Trek Beyond has brought in another screenwriter. The latest scribe to take on the long-gestating project is Steve Yockey who has primarily worked in TV writing for shows like Supernatural and Doom Patrol, and more recently creating and showrunnering Max’s The Flight Attendant and the upcoming Netflix Sandman-spinoff series Dead Boy Detectives.

Paramount still sees this movie as the final film for the Kelvin crew of Chris Pine (Kirk), Zachary Quinto (Spock), Zoe Saldaña (Uhura), Karl Urban (Dr. McCoy), John Cho (Sulu) and Simon Pegg (Scotty). Members of the cast have consistently indicated they are eager to do another film if they can align their busy schedules, but “creative differences” and “script issues” have reportedly kept the film from getting off the ground.

No details are available regarding the story for this film which has gone through a number of iterations since Paramount first envisioned a sequel to Beyond in 2016. Paramount had put the movie on the release calendar for Christmas 2023 but director Matt Shakman (WandaVision) exited the project in the summer of 2022 months before filming was set to start, moving Star Trek 4 back to the development queue. Shakman was working on a script written by Josh Friedman (Avatar 2) and Cameron Squires (WandaVision), based on an earlier draft from Lindsey Beer (Pet Semetary: Bloodlines) and Geneva Robertson-Dworet (Captain Marvel). According to Variety, Yockey is writing a “new draft,” indicating the film is still at least partially based on those previous drafts.
