While the "Star Trek Beyond" suffered unexpected impediment due to production, the movie will still meet its scheduled release. Furthermore, Simon Pegg revealed that they have written the draft which took them so much earlier than the usual scriptwriting time period.
During an interview with Coming Soon, Pegg admitted that the team were under pressure while writing the script due to the stipulated timeframe given to them which "was a lot smaller than it would normally be." He revealed that they were given six months which usually takes a year to finish a draft just as big as the "Star Trek Beyond" movie.
"You write a film of that size, you usually get a year or so, but I think we started maybe six months before we went into production, if that. Just under six months and we were already in pre-production, which meant that things had to be designed and set pieces had to be created and the pressure on us to deliver was extraordinary," he said.
Franchise Herald noted that the new character that joined the cast as the new villain, Idris Elba, has teased his role commending Pegg and other screenwriters for a very interesting, well-written story for his character. Elba admitted that it will be the first time he will be playing that kind of role which he did not expound.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount Pictures announced that the "Star Trek Beyond" will be released in IMAX screens globally. Originally, the film was scheduled on July 8 which was pushed back to July 22, 2016. Paramount Pictures will partner with Skydance and Bad Robot for the third time.
The scriptwriter and producer, however, insisted that the crew had worked so hard to finish everything just before the scheduled pre-production. When the "Star Trek Beyond" movie production begun, Pegg admitted that the cast and crew had so much fun even though they were tensed at times.
