Star Trek: is this the new Enterprise?

John Moore


The new Star Trek film is going before the cameras - and could this be the shape of the new Enterprise?

Published on Dec 4, 2007

Hey, we’re not sure either - but we thought you’d wanna see this pic. It appeared on the net today on Movietome – and even they’re not sure it’s genuine. What can I say? ‘I’m a geek Jim, not a fortune teller!’

I just think it looks cool, it certainly ups the ante a little bit more for a film I couldn’t be more excited about already. I had a chat with friend of J J Abrams and Heroes star Greg Grunberg recently, and to hear how excited he is about what his mate is up to with Star Trek was infectious as hell. Would he confirm his participation in the project?

Would he ‘eck as like… Not even when I asked him to give me ‘one beep for yes, two beeps for no’ on rumours that he’s to play Kirk’s predecessor.

So take a look, and enjoy the excitement I felt on seeing the Enterprise re-imagined… I especially like the nacelles, and the battered to shit exterior. Maybe Captain Pike wasn’t so great at parking…? And is that a little bit of phaser damage at 5 O’Clock?

Altogether now… Doo doo da da da-da daaaaaaah.

Ooh that looks nice, and gives some idea of the criteria by which the old bridge will be revamped.

That's Gabe Koerner's Enterprise. You might know him as the obsessive Trek-nerd from the documentary "Trekkies". Well, he grew up into a proper, working-for-the-telly, CGI dude. He's one of the FX monkeys on Battlestar Galactica. Anyway, long story short, a little while ago he created an updated NCC 1701 for the Ships of the Line calendar. That's one of the shots from that.

Thanks for that Karl... Cool to know. But hey, it was all a front for me to boast about meeting Greg Grunberg! :-)
