Star Trek, released on May 8, 2009, is a science fiction action film that reimagines the classic Star Trek universe. Directed by J.J. Abrams, the movie features a new generation of actors portraying iconic characters. Chris Pine stars as James T.

The plot follows James Kirk and Spock as they meet at Starfleet Academy and embark on their first mission aboard the USS Enterprise. They face a vengeful Romulan from the future, Nero, played by Eric Bana, who threatens the Federation. Leonard Nimoy also appears, reprising his role as the older Spock from the original timeline, bridging the gap between the old and new casts.
