Simon Pegg admits he “didn’t love” the new Star Trek trailer

The debut trailer for Star Trek Beyond released earlier this week receiving a mixed response from fans. And now even the film’s co-writer and star Simon Pegg has revealed that he too wasn’t a fan of the trailer.

“I didn’t love it because I know there’s a lot more to the film,” Pegg told HeyUGuys “There’s a lot more story and a lot more character stuff, and a lot more what I would call Star Trek stuff. But you know, they’ve got to bring a big audience in. They’ve got to bang the drum. To the Star Trek fans, I’d say be patient.”

Director Justin Lin shared a similar opinion, telling /Film: “There were other versions that were much more traditional and I can see where maybe the hardcore fans could probably see that as, ‘Oh.'”

Star Trek Beyond opens in cinemas on July 22, 2016.
