Jonathan Frakes Talks Star Trek 4 Problems, Offer To Direct*

Jonathan Frakes explains his offer to J.J. Abrams to direct the problematic Star Trek 4. The fourth film in the Kelvin Timeline series of Star Trek movies was originally scheduled for release in 2023 but has since disappeared from Paramount's slate of upcoming releases. Many big names have been attached to the project such as Chris Hemsworth and Quentin Tarantino, but despite these huge industry figures, Star Trek 4 has failed to get off the ground.
In an exclusive Screen Rant interview to highlight the great work done by PanCAN, and Trek Against Pancreatic Cancer, the conversation turned to Jonathan Frakes' interest in directing Star Trek 4, although he isn't privy to the current state of the film. Read his quote below:

I don't know much about that... the guy who was due to direct it [Matt Shakman] has gone off to do Fantastic Four, I think... And I'm not sure if they have a script, or if they had a script or a budget... I'm not sure at what stage Star Trek 4 is [in]. I did write an email to JJ [Abrams] and said, "If you need an experienced old white guy, I'm available." He wrote back and [said], "You certainly are experienced." So it's not for lack of asking, but I'm not sure what stage that movie is in. I love that cast.
