Star Trek 4: S. J. Clarkson ‘in talks’ to helm next movie…

What’s the story? Not a lot is known about Star Trek 4.

But…

J.J. Abrams and Lindsey Weber are once again set to produce with David Ellison and Dana Goldberg are executive producing.

S.J. Clarkson has allegedly been handed the reigns on one of sci-fi’s biggest franchises, as she is said to be in talks to direct the fourth Star Trek movie.

If this works out, this will make her the first female director to take on the franchise.

Despite only having taken on Toast for the big screen previously, Clarkson’s resume is far from sparse.

She has directed one or more episodes of various major TV shows, including recent episodes of Jessica Jones for Netflix and Collateral for the BBC.

It will be interesting to see the next direction off the franchise? From lead characters to plotting and story.
