In the grand scheme of things, the release of Star Trek Into Darkness is just around the corner, but in true J.J. Abrams fashion, few concrete details are known about the story. Today, however, we FINALLY have the first official synopsis.
Leonard Nimoy's old Spock served as a bridge between J.J. Abrams' new Star Trek and the original series, and there are rumors he could pop up in the sequel as well. But now, another Trek alum is making a play for a spot in the new universe—and he's already pitched Abrams personally.

We've been having fun with the few leaked images we've seen from the set of the Star Trek sequel, but director J. J. Abrams can't seem to get over the fact that we've glimpsed them at all.
