It looks like Quentin Tarantino's Star Trek movie is actually happening,
and now the film has a screenwriter in place.
According to Deadline, Paramount has tapped Mark L. Smith to write the script for this R-rated take on the Star Trek universe, based on the idea conceived by Tarantino himself.
Smith, who penned the script for The Revenant, may seem like an odd choice for Tarantino. The director is well-known for the incredible amount of dialogue he puts in his films. Smith's Revenant script used very little dialogue to tell its story.
Despite the different approaches to the dialogue situation, it sounds as though Tarantino is very happy with Smith's work. In fact, according to Deadline's report, he hand-picked the writer.
