Originally conceived as a prequel to Star Trek (1966). The story was to follow young Kirk and Spock when they met in Starfleet Academy, with Ethan Hawke rumored for the role of Kirk and John Cusack rumored for the role of Spock. However, partially due to the mixed to poor critical reception of Star Trek V - L'ultima frontiera (1989), and because of the strong desire for a future film involving the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987), it was decided to do a final film with the original cast, which would end with their retirement, and allude to the new cast taking over the franchise. A prequel series would later appear in the form of the television series Enterprise (2001), and Star Trek (2009) is a prequel film.
