"Alex Kurtzman has explained Star Trek 2&amp;#039;s Comic-Con International absence. The producer said that the filmmakers didn&amp;#039;t want to rush the project in order to get it ready for the annual San Diego event.   &amp;quot;Here&amp;#039;s the thing about Trek,&amp;quot; he told ComingSoon.net. &amp;quot;Part of why we delayed a year was because we didn&amp;#039;t want to rush it, just because we feel very beholden to the franchise and we feel very protective of it and the worst thing we can do is to put it out there before we felt like we were ready and we were still working on the story.&amp;quot; 2009&amp;#039;s Star Trek reboot proved a huge success with fans at Comic-Con. Kurtzman is best known as a writer with partner Bob Orci, the pair having most recently worked on the script for The Amazing Spider-Man. They are both producing Star Trek 2 and the adaptation of Orson Scott Card&amp;#039;s Ender&amp;#039;s Game. He will also make his directorial debut this summer with People Like Us. Star Trek 2 stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Benedict Cumberbatch. It will arrive in US and UK cinemas on May 17, 2013.
