Simon Pegg Is Not Writing 'Star Trek 4'

'Star Trek Beyond' writers Simon Pegg and Doug Jung are NOT writing the script.

Actor Zachary Quinto hinted there may 3 versions of the script being written...

...and that Pegg and Jung were writing one of those.

But Pegg clarified later that he and Jung were never writing the script in the first place.

Doug and I are doing something together at Bad Robot, which I probably can't talk about just yet. So, [J.D.] Payne and [Patrick] McKay, who wrote the abortive third [Star Trek] script with the previous director [Roberto Orci], they are writing a fourth one.
