TRAILER: New Look at 'Star Trek Into Darkness' Is Heavy on Action and Destruction

While watching this new trailer, I realized that just a few months ago, I was super excited about Star Trek Into Darkness. I couldn't wait to see what JJ Abrams was going to do with this sequel. Then news broke that Abrams was directing Star Wars: Episode VII. (That's still a strange sentence to type.) That announcement immediately absorbed all of my Abrams excitement.

With Star Trek Into Darkness' debut quickly approaching, though, it's time to rekindle the anticipation for the movie, and this new trailer is the right step in that direction. Unlike previous trailers for the movie, this one is heavy on Chris Pine's Captain James T. Kirk with only glimpses of Benedict Cumberbatch's Not Khan.

Check out the trailer after the jump. Star Trek Into Darkness hits theaters on May 17, 2013.
