Abrams is set to direct "Star Trek 2," with frequent collaborators Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Damon Lindelof handling script duties. The quartet are producing, along with Bryan Burk and David Ellison.
Shooting on the film will likely start early next year, with an expected release date of May 17, 2013. It will be released in 3D, a first for the "Trek" franchise.
Eve was recently seen on the final season of "Entourage" and is co-starring alongside John Cusack and Luke Evans in the upcoming Edgar Allen Poe-derived thriller "The Raven." She'll follow that with a key role in "Men in Black III," which will reunite stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones.
