Listen, all y’all, it’s a sabotage! Well, not really, but that song is going to be gloriously stuck in your head all day if it wasn’t already, because the Beastie Boys track is put to good use throughout the first trailer for Star Trek Beyond, the third entry in the rebooted Star Trek series.
This film stars Chris Pine, Simon Pegg, Zachary Quinto, Idris Elba, Zoe Saldana, John Cho, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, and that badass gray alien ninja is Sofia Boutella. We didn’t spot Idris Elba’s villain anywhere in this trailer, but we suppose they can’t give it all away in the first spot.
Directed by Justin Lin and written by Simon Pegg (who’s also playing Scotty), Star Trek Beyond opens July 22, 2016.

Star Trek Beyond trailer was supposed to drop Wed. It's better it landed this morning. Tonight and rest of week will be Star Wars 24/7

OK. That Star Trek Beyond trailer was certainly Fast and Furious in SPACE.

The trouble with the Star Trek Beyond trailer is that it's trying to be Fast and the Furious in space. Instead of, y'know, being Star Trek.

I'm going to pretend like the Star Trek Beyond trailer doesn't look weird at all by staying in my happy place. pic.twitter.com/nEfgLYO5TO
