Things Get Grim In The Latest Teaser For STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS

Anchored by a serious talking to from Bruce Greenwood's Admiral Pike to a brash and reckless Captain Kirk, the latest teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams' return to the Trek universe is perhaps a tad too self-serious, but boy, oh, boy is Benedict Cumberbatch a touchstone of gravitas in an already epic and somber tease. What ever villain he's playing there's no doubt it'll be fun to watch him bring the hurt to Chris Pine and the crew of the Enterprise.  

Watch the trailer over at Apple, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Set for release on May 16th and 17th in most corners of the globe, Star Trek Into Darkness also stars Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Alice Eve, Simon Pegg, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin & John Cho.
