"Based upon Star Trek created by Gene Roddenberry" (spoilers?)

Will we see this in the title screen of the new film? I dunno if it was ever done in the previous films, but I do remember seeing it in the TV series after TOS.

Speculation?

No speculation necessary -- all the films have had that credit.
 
I think even Star Trek VI had it, and he was slightly involved with that movie. All the movies afterward had it, I know that.
 
His actual involvement in all the films after ST:TMP was slight.

Yeah, every Trek movie and TV series has carried the credit "based upon...created by" for Roddenberry. Doubtless this one will, too.
 
Maybe they'll pull a Steve Ditko and add a couple more names without whom this film couldn't have happened. Gene L Coon, D.C. Fontana, Harve Bennett anyone?

I'm not saying GR shouldn't headline but many of this film's elements aren't 100% attributable to him. Romulans, Vulcan backstory, Kirk's no-win antics at the Academy...

Now that's something I'd like to see! :bolian:
 
Yeah, it'll be there. TMP had it there, despite the fact that Roddenberry was actually involved with it.

Although, if for some reason it isn't, you can bet I'll be boycotting the movie.
