‘STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS’ TEASER TRAILER RELEASED

December 6, 2012 - 4:38 pm

The full-length theatrical trailer for "Star Trek Into Darkness" is still about a week away, but Paramount Pictures has released a teaser for that trailer that should definitely whet fans' appetites for more. The video puts Benedict Cumberbatch's villain character front and center, and teases that he's a threat like none the Enterprise crew has seen before. "You think your world is safe. It is an illusion," he says in the trailer. "A comforting lie told to protect you. Enjoy these final moments of peace. For I have returned to have my vengeance."
