20 Things You Didn't Know About Star Trek: Nemesis
1. Its Commercial Failure Caused A Planned Sequel To Be Scrapped
During Nemesis' production, John Logan and Brent Spiner got to work on a script for a potential fifth film starring TNG's cast, which would serve as a concrete farewell to this iteration of the Enterprise crew.
The planned film would've apparently been a crossover event involving The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager crews, in addition to Riker as captain of the Titan.
Nemesis' atrocious box office performance quickly pumped the brakes on the proposed sequel, though, and so the movie franchise laid dormant for seven years until J.J. Abrams' rejuvenating reboot was released in 2009.
With its slicker, broader appeal, Trek '09 became the highest-grossing Trek movie at the time, more than doubling second place, then held by Star Trek: First Contact.
