Screenwriter and producer Roberto Orci is reportedly in negotiations with Skydance and Paramount to make his directorial debut with Star Trek 3.
The 40-year-old Mexican film writer is said to be helming the next film from the science fiction entertainment franchise, according to Variety.
Orci is currently penning a script for the movie with The Amazing Spider-Man 2 co-writer Alex Kurtzman.
Star Trek 3 is yet to receive a release date, but it is expected to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the franchise in 2016.
