This is a writer and directing pairing I never thought I see coming, but it’s an exciting pairing nonetheless. Deadline has reported that Dustin Lance Black (Milk and J. Edgar) will be writing the script for the J.J. Abrams-directed and Bryan Burk-produced disaster flick Earthquake. Yes, another earthquake-themed film, but the idea that Black is on board to pen the script could tell us where Abrams wants to take Earthquake.

Black isn’t well known for writing for action films. He is, however, a great writer for character-driven plots. His award-winning script for Milk is just one shining example.

Edgar Wright‘s next movie is the long-awaited third film in the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy, The World’s End, with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. After that it was looking more and more like he would finally get to direct Ant-Man for Marvel, but now a new project has come into play.

It’s been reported that Wright is set to direct Collider for Paramount Pictures, and that he’ll co-write the script with Mark Protosevich. On top of that, the movie will be produced by J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot Productions.

In what should be exciting news for movie fans everywhere, we are learning that J.J. Abrams has shot some of Star Trek 2 in IMAX as well.

However, we shouldn’t take the news as a complete surprise considering images from the set show an IMAX camera is present. The film will still be converted into 3D, as well. We still don’t know how much was shot using the IMAX format or how much of what was shot will make it into the theatrical cut, but knowing that Star Trek will be presented in a true IMAX format is comforting. I’m sure everyone prefers true IMAX over its horrible digitally converted one.

A new teaser trailer for the upcoming Star Trek video game from Namco Bandai has been released online.

As we found out last June at E3, the game looks to channel BioWare’s Mass Effect series in terms of (most of) its gameplay, and the game will act as a bridge from J.J. Abrams’ 2009 blockbuster reboot of the beloved Trek universe and the sequel that’s currently set for a 2013 release.

Hot on the heels of the first set photos from the Los Angeles location shoot for Star Trek 2 that were released over the weekend (you can check them out here and here) comes a new behind-the-scenes video from the shoot.
