STAR TREK gets the Empire treatment

J.J. Abrams’ STAR TREK reboot gets the Empire magazine cover treatment for December’s issue due out at the end of this week.

Inside are some exclusive new shots from the movie, some of which (possibly all?) we have below.

The cover is a conscious re-working of a very famous publicity shot for the original series which you can see “renergized” by visiting the mag’s official site.

Preview of Abram’s interview from the mag…

For me, the costumes were a microcosm of the entire project, which was how to take something that’s kind of silly and make it feel real. But how do you make legitimate those near-primary colour costumes? How do you make legitimate the pointy ears and the bowl haircut? It’s ridiculous and as potentially cliched as it gets. How do you watch Galaxy Quest and then go make a Star Trek movie?

New images from the movie, the first which appears to be the inside of a shuttle taking the crew down on an away mission.

Next up, Zachary Quinto as the new Spock in front of what could be the new bridge screen…

And finally, Zoe Saldana as Uhura…

STAR TREK is due for release on May 8th 2009 with the trailer attached to U.S. prints of QUANTUM OF SOLACE opening on Nov. 14th.
