Article Excerpt:

I'm among the thousands and thousands of movie fans already looking forward to a sequel to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek. It's the best movie of its kind this summer, and I mean that in as broad a term as possible: Whether you're talking action, sci-fi, tentpole - this is the real deal. We know there will be a sequel and we know J.J. Abrams will be invovled, but in what capacity?

Collider caught up with the director and Bad Robot honcho on the red carpet of the Saturn Awards and tried to back Abrams into corners about whether or not he'll direct part two or walk away from that much responsibility, as well as picking his brain about potential villains.

Abrams is a master of a few things, but his greatest strength may be revealing as much as possible in an interview. Will he direct? "We just started talking about ideas…we’ve just begun this process so it’s so early that it’s insane to, you know - I have no idea," he tells Collider.

"(B)ut I would say that it’s that kind of feeling that as we’re talking about stories you start to salivate, like ‘oh my God I can’t wait to do that!’ and so that feels good and my guess is that as we continue it will become clearer how we will plan out what will happen."
