Comicbook.com reports that Thor: Ragnarok star Karl Urban is confident he’ll reprise his Star Trek role in future series outings. He said as much during a panel appearance at Trekonderoga.
pointing to contractual hangups with Wonder Woman star Chris Pine and Avengers star Chris Hemsworth, he said, “Hopefully, we get back for another movie, or two of them. We are just sort of waiting on negotiations. I’m confident we will." Pine made headlines when talks with studio Paramount fell through.
He and Hemsworth were expected to return to the reboot series as Captain James T. Kirk and father George Kirk, respectively.
Urban said the status of Star Trek 4 “is really hinging on the availability and the contract negotiations of the two Chrises."
