J.J. Abrams helped revive the Star Trek franchise back in 2009, and once again with 2013's Star Trek Into Darkness. Yet, a shifting to the Star Wars universe has pulled him from the director's chair with his first revitalized project. Therefore, many concerns remain for this summer's newest entry, Star Trek Beyond. The entire crew of the USS Enterprise venture to uncharted territory deep in space and they discover a new foe who attempt to put an end to them and The Federation. With the tragic loss of Anton Yelchin this month, there will be plenty of reasons worth checking out director Justin Lin's (Fast Five) first go-around with the Star Trek saga.
Another intriguing new sci-fi title arriving this year is Luke Scott's debut feature, Morgan. Kate Mara (The Martian) stars as a corporate risk-management consultant who's hired to evaluate the safety of a breakthrough scientific project involving an artificial-being named Morgan (Anya Taylor-Joy). With a moderately known cast and an unknown filmmaker at the helm, Morgan comes with a lot of uncertainty. However, it was just last year when Alex Garland took Hollywood by storm with his Oscar-nominated debut film, Ex Machina, which boasted an eerily similar plot. Morgan arrives in theaters on September 2nd and you can catch it's first trailer below.
