U.K. fans will get a chance to boldly go where no one has gone before a full week before U.S. fans.
"Star Trek Into Darkness," the much-hyped sequel to J.J. Abrams' 2009 reboot of the series, will now be unveiled in the United Kingdom on May 9, whereas American audiences will have to way until May 15 for their first look.
Of course, speculation is brewing that the film's U.S. release date will be shifted forward one week as well.
"Darkness" co-star Simon Pegg revealed the news over Twitter, saying, "Looks like Star Trek Into Darkness will land in the UK first. Release date May 9th. That's about 8 weeks away. Not long considering."
