J.J. Abrams has confirmed that work on the sequel to Star Trek will begin soon now that production on his upcoming thriller Super 8 has finished.

Abrams revealed that work on the film was finally beginning to get under way, and that although a script is yet to be finalized, the team are definitely "working on it".

"The truth is that my focus has been so much on finishing Super 8 that it's been something I'm looking forward to getting to, but with an incredibly compressed post schedule, there hasn't been a whole lot of time for me to be working with the writers," Abrams explained to MTV News.

"Now that Super 8 is drawing to a close in terms of this post schedule, I'm looking forward to jumping in and hopefully getting that ready as soon as possible."

Abrams praised the film's writing team, which consists of Star Trek writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman as well as Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof, for helping to keep the sequel on track.

"These are not just great friends of mine, but they're great writers," Abrams added. "I'm thrilled and very optimistic that it's going to get where it needs to get to."

It is currently unknown whether Abrams will direct the film as he did with 2009's Star Trek, or simply serve as producer on the project.

Star Trek 2 is scheduled to reach cinemas on June 29, 2012.

ANONYMOUS CONTENT JOINS BEFORE THE DOOR/PERIODS COLLABORATION

New York, NY (May 10, 2011)—On the heels of their success with JC Chandor’s MARGIN CALL, Zachary Quinto’s Before The Door Pictures has announced the company’s second feature project, an “untitled found-footage” romantic comedy. Quinto and producing partners Neal Dodson and Corey Moosa commence principal photography on the film this week in New York.

Longtime Before The Door collaborator Victor Quinaz is directing and keeping the details of the project including the title and general synopsis under wraps. Anonymous Content’s Steve Golin and Richard Brown are also producing, with Anonymous co-financing along with their partner Fred Schaufeld, who will serve as an executive producer. Written by Quinaz, Anna Martemucci, and Philip Quinaz, the film mixes scripted and improv comedy and utilizes an ensemble of actors and comedians from the Periods Films web shorts that have been featured on Huffington Post, Funny or Die, and numerous other online comedy outlets.

Quinto commented, “As we continue to build our company on the foundation of belief in independent film and first-time writer directors – it is a tremendous honor to be supported by collaborators with as much integrity and expertise as Steve Golin and Richard Brown.”

“Zachary brought us this project a few weeks ago and it took about 2 minutes to recognize it was a terrific idea. We’re excited to be in business with Before The Door on what promises to be an original and very funny debut feature from the extremely talented Victor Quinaz,” said Anonymous’ Richard Brown

Before The Door has previously collaborated with Periods on a comedy short film series called BEFORE AFTER. Victor Quinaz and Martemucci both have other feature projects in development with Quinto’s team, including Quinaz’s MR MURDER IS DEAD, an original graphic novel that will be released through Archaia at Comic-Con in July.

MARGIN CALL, Before The Door’s first feature, premiered at Sundance, competed at The Berlinale, and opened New Directors/New Films at MoMA to critical acclaim. It is being released domestically by Roadside Attractions in the fall of 2011. Quinto recently announced an unscripted series with SyFy and RelativityREAL, starring photographer Tyler Shields. Before The Door’s feature, television, comic book, and new media slate has a number of projects ready to move forward in 2011 and 2012 with more projects to be announced in the coming months.
