Did you know

• Trivia After production on the film was completed, and a month before the release, Anton Yelchin died in a freak vehicle accident at age 27. During the ending credits, there is a dedication that reads, "For Anton." J.J. Abrams announced that Chekov would not be recast, "I would say you can't replace him. There will be no new casting. I can't imagine that, and I think Anton deserves better."
• Goofs The number of ships and soldiers that the enemy has in its swarm changes dramatically during the final battle, from a few thousand to tens/hundreds of thousands when they attack the station. However, previously in the film, it is stated that the planet has deep and large underground caverns so it is entirely possible that there were more ships underground. Also, the number of soldiers that would be needed to pilot all the ships would be huge as it was shown that they contain at least one soldier in each ship. But when they were watching the video logs near the film's ending, Captain Edison clearly states that they found drones. It is quite possible that the bulk of the enemy fleet is made up of drones and controlled by the hive mind that the music disrupts.

Doctor 'Bones' McCoy : [after removing shrapnel from Spock] Yeah. They say it hurts less if it's a surprise.

Commander Spock : If I may adopt a parlance with which you are familiar, I can confirm your theory to be horseshit.

• Crazy credits There is a giant green energy-hand, in the closing credits, mentioned in the movie as one of the possibilities for a ship lost in space.

Watch Star Trek Beyond

• 7.0   (259,270)

The third installment in the Star Trek reboot series, Star Trek Beyond follows the crew of the USS Enterprise as they embark on a mission to explore the uncharted territories of space. Captain James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and his crew, including Spock (Zachary Quinto), Bones (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Scotty (Simon Pegg), Sulu (John Cho), and Chekov (Anton Yelchin), face new challenges and obstacles as they encounter a menacing new villain named Krall (Idris Elba).

The movie is set three years into the Enterprise's five-year mission, and the crew is starting to feel the strain of being cooped up together for so long. Kirk is beginning to wonder why he joined Starfleet in the first place, while Spock is struggling with the news that Ambassador Spock (the original Spock, played by Leonard Nimoy) has passed away. Meanwhile, a distress signal leads the Enterprise to a mysterious planet where they are ambushed by Krall and his army of drones. After crash-landing on the planet's surface, the crew must find a way to work together to defeat Krall and his evil plans.

The plot of the movie is fast-paced and action-packed, with plenty of stunning visuals and thrilling space battles. From the opening sequence, which sees Kirk negotiating with an alien species while trying to prevent his ship from being attacked, to the final showdown between the Enterprise crew and Krall on his home planet, the movie never lets up. There are moments of humor and heart, too, as the filmmakers explore the relationships between the various crew members and the bonds that exist between them.

One of the highlights of the movie is the introduction of new character Jaylah (Sofia Boutella), a tough and resourceful alien who helps the Enterprise crew in their fight against Krall. Boutella's performance is impressive, and her character adds a fresh dynamic to the group that fans will love. There are also some moments of fan service, such as a touching tribute to Nimoy's Spock and a scene featuring a beloved Star Trek character from the past.

In terms of performances, the cast is as strong as ever. Pine is charming and charismatic as Kirk, while Quinto brings his usual intensity to the role of Spock. Urban is a standout as Bones, delivering some of the movie's funniest lines with perfect comedic timing. Saldana, Cho, and Pegg also get their moments to shine, and Yelchin's performance as Chekov is particularly poignant given his tragic death in 2016.

Overall, Star Trek Beyond is a worthy addition to the Star Trek franchise. It's a fun and exciting adventure that will appeal to both long-time fans and newcomers to the series. The movie strikes a balance between action and heart, and its themes of unity, loyalty, and perseverance are particularly resonant in today's world. Whether seen in 2D or 3D, on the big screen or at home, Star Trek Beyond is a must-watch for any sci-fi fan.

Star Trek Beyond is a 2016 action movie with a runtime of 2 hours and 2 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.0 and a MetaScore of 68.

Paramount+ Becoming The Streaming Home Of Star Trek In Canada

This – of course – is an area limited thing: “This title isn’t available in your location”

So there are still ads. No thank you.

Besides, I have all those films on disc so I don’t need to be concerned with what service currently has the rights to what movie or what series.

It is FREE! Obviously beggars can’t be choosers. And stuff like this is for mostly casual fans. Most hardcore fans will either already own the movies as you do through a disc, digital copy or just watch them on other dedicated streaming sites.

I have AA, Prime and Hulu and between those three I can see all the movies minus the Kelvin ones.

You don’t have Netflix

I do, but oddly there are no Star Trek movies on there, at least not in America. I don’t think its had one for years at this point. But both Amazon and Hulu has over half and a few they have the same titles like First Contact, TWOK and TUC.

But these movies should have at least one dedicated site you can watch them all in one place like Disney+ has for Star Wars. I imagine some day they will just end up on AA but that could be years away, especially with the Kelvin movies which are probably licensed in a lot of places right now.

Netflix don’t have any of the movies in Europe either. All series except Picard, but no movies.

Wow interesting! It’s really odd how the shows seem to be such a fixture on the streaming sites everywhere, especially here in America where the shows are currently on four sites (AA, Hulu, Netflix and Amazon) and been on them for years now. And they are always together, at least classic Trek, TOS-ENT.

But the movies are more sporadic, never as a whole like having all the TNG movies and seem to come and go.

@Tiger2: This is just a wild guess but CBS may have sold streaming rights to TOS-ENT as a package deal years ago. For more than 10 years this was the whole Star Trek TV franchise.

I don’t know if Paramount didn’t try the same for the movies or if streaming services didn’t bite.

Oh yeah I agree. I think that’s the power of Star Trek too, at least the shows that they are popular enough you can sell it as a package because they know all the shows will get watched. Some more than others obviously but the fanbase itself watches it all since its all connected and all the shows have a fanbase today.

It’s just odd how the movies aren’t done the same way. I mean even if you can’t package all of them since it is a lot of movies it’s odd how you just can’t get all the TOS or TNG movies in one place. There is always a few missing from each series no matter what. It’s very different from other movie series that lands on these sites. I never not seen all the Back to the Future movies together or not all the Indiana Jones movies together and so on. Even Hulu had all the James Bonds movies at one point (and maybe still does) minus the Daniel Craig ones. It’s harder when its newer stuff like the MCU movies (and there are a lot lol) but the TOS and TNG movies are old now and yet they are rarely packaged together and never seem to last long on a streaming site.

In fact two Star Trek films were on AA about two years ago, Nemesis and TUC before they were taken off…and now they’re back.

I hate ads, but I also hate the idea of supporting Amazon, so that makes this service a hard no for me.

You have First Contact listed as both July 1 and currently available.

It’s free but there are ads. No thank you. At least watching Star Trek for free is a nice trade-off.

I would prefer this to be on Netflix. I have Hulu, Netflix, and Disney+. The only free streaming service.

Do we really need IMDB TV?

Not really, there are too much streaming services already

Do we really need free things? Sure.

Who is “we”? Some people may enjoy a free way to see movies/shows that they don’t own or that are otherwise only available on paid services.

Whether anybody really “needs” IMDB TV or any other streaming service for that matter is a different question. Streaming entertainment is certainly not comparable to food or air to breathe…

I can hear the Dire Straits singing for it now.

“I want my IMDBtv”

Why are you always writing such news in an US-centric perspective? There are over 190 countries in the world, and there is a HUGE Trekkie community outside of the US. But IMDB TV is only available in the US. This is something that you conveniently leave out of your news. It seems that you only think about your own country and don’t even bother about the rest of us. Just like your President.

That really pisses me off!

We cover international events and streaming as well, including mentioning the international releases in our recent SHORT TREKS review. We have had teams cover cons and red carpets in UK, Germany, Australia and elsewhere. We have a couple of UK members on the contributor team as well as people in Canada.

But, TrekMovie is based in the USA. The majority of visitors are from USA. And most of the Star Trek news emerges from the USA.

If there are important news and events from overseas you feel we should share please let us know by sending in tips at trekmovie dot com.

thanks for the feedback

Burke, Trekmovie is an American website. Majority of the contributors lives in America as well. They aren’t doing it to spite you, as said they have other people to cover international news but the overwhelming majority is going to be American based. Especially since Star Trek is an American franchise and probably where most of its audience is concentrated as well, so most of it will come from an American perspective.

Its not a global news site, it’s a fan board at the end of the day. They can only do so much.

funny to think that Beyond poster would’ve had Shatner on it (probably in one of those TMP style admiral uniforms) had they gone with the Orci version.. instead of the white face makeup alien girl :(also Pine probably not in the starlord jacket)

Star Trek streaming guide: Where to watch the Star Trek movies and TV shows online

Our Star Trek streaming guide will allow you to go boldly where you've never gone before, without getting off your couch.

How to stream the Star Trek Movies in the US

How to stream the star trek tv shows in the us, how to stream the star trek movies in the uk, how to stream the star trek tv shows in the uk.

Here's our Star Trek streaming guide, so you know where to go boldly where you've never gone before... Without leaving your sofa. We've come up with this Star Trek streaming guide because since the first ever episode aired back in 1966, there's been  a huge number of additions into the franchise. 

Star Trek is currently in a bit of a purple patch for content as Paramount Plus , which is the home of all things Star Trek, is responsible for several new shows in recent years. But, it's not just new content, you'll also find where to stream the classics both movies and TV series below. 

Before, Star Trek content was scattered all around different streaming services and searching for what you wanted to watch could feel like hunting for a cloaked Bird of Prey. However, these days you're able to stream all Star Trek content out there on Paramount Plus. However, we do have round-ups of the best sci-fi movies and TV shows on Netflix , Disney Plus and Amazon if you want to check them out. 

You can also check out our take on the Star Trek movies, ranked so you know which movies to beam up onto your device. While Paramount Plus has everything Star Trek out there, you can find the odd bit of content on other platforms. So, below you'll find where you can watch what, regardless of where you're based, in our Star Trek streaming guide.  

The Star Trek movies can be divided into three tidy groups: the original cast, the Next Generation cast, and the reboot cast. All of them can be found on Paramount+. However, Paramount+ isn't the only place you can stream the movies and in some cases you can rent or buy from places such as Amazon .

Here’s how to stream the Star Trek movies in the U.S., in order of release:

Star Trek: The Motion Picture — Paramount+ Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan — Paramount+ Star Trek III: The Search for Spock — Paramount+ Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home — Paramount+ Star Trek V: The Final Frontier — Paramount+ Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country — Paramount+ Star Trek: Generations — Paramount+ Star Trek: First Contact — Paramount+ Star Trek: Insurrection — Paramount+ , Spectrum Star Trek: Nemesis — Paramount+   Star Trek (2009) — Paramount+ , Pluto TV Star Trek Into Darkness — Paramount+ , Pluto TV Star Trek Beyond — Paramount+ , DIRECTV , Freevee

When it comes to Star Trek on the small screen, you can find them all in one place. Paramount+ not only has every episode of every legacy Trek show, it’s also the home of all the new Star Trek programming, such as Picard and Strange New Worlds. If you’re a Trekkie, you absolutely want to have Paramount+ to keep up with the object of your affection. A word of warning though, other streaming platforms may only have select episodes or series to stream.

Star Trek: The Original Series — Paramount+ , Pluto TV Star Trek: The Next Generation — Paramount+ , Pluto TV Star Trek: Deep Space Nine  — Paramount+ , Sling , Spectrum Star Trek: Voyager — Paramount+ , Pluto TV Star Trek: Enterprise — Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery — Paramount+ , DIRECTV Star Trek: Picard — Paramount+ Star Trek: Short Treks — Paramount+ Star Trek: Lower Decks — Paramount+ Star Trek: Prodigy — Paramount+ ,   DIRECTV , FuboTV , Spectrum Star Trek: The Animated Series — Paramount+ Star Trek: Strange New Worlds — Paramount+

Now that Paramount+ has arrived in the U.K, streaming Star Trek is a lot easier. You can view most of the movies on the streaming platform. Star Trek Beyond is the exception but that can be found on Amazon Prime. If you're not prepared to subscribe to Paramount+, the movies are available to rent or buy from a number of different platforms. 

Star Trek: The Motion Picture — Paramount+ Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan — Paramount+ Star Trek III: The Search for Spock — Paramount+ Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home — Paramount+ Star Trek V: The Final Frontier — Paramount+ Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country — Paramount+ Star Trek: Generations — Paramount+ Star Trek: First Contact — Paramount+ Star Trek: Insurrection — Paramount+ Star Trek: Nemesis — Paramount+ Star Trek (2009) — Paramount+ , Amazon Prime Star Trek Into Darkness — Paramount+ , Amazon Prime Star Trek Beyond — Amazon Prime

Now that Paramount+ has reached those across the pond, the U.K. can enjoy streaming Star Trek shows as well. Netflix is also another great option to fulfil your Trekkie viewing needs, especially if you're interested in checking out Star Trek: The Animated Series, which is exclusive to Netflix. 

However, for the likes of Picard and Lower Decks, you’ll have to hop on over to Amazon Prime. It's worth noting that platforms such as SkyGo may only have a select number of episodes or series to stream.

Star Trek: The Original Series —   Netflix , Paramount+ Star Trek: The Next Generation — Netflix , Paramount+ , SkyGo Star Trek: Deep Space Nine  — Netflix , Paramount+ Star Trek: Voyager — Netflix , Paramount+ Star Trek: Enterprise — Netflix , Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery — Paramount+ Star Trek: Picard — Amazon Prime Video , Paramount+ Star Trek: Short Treks — N/A Star Trek: Lower Decks — Amazon Prime Video Star Trek: Prodigy — Paramount+ , SkyGo Star Trek: The Animated Series — Netflix Star Trek: Strange New Worlds — Paramount+

From low-budget romps to high-energy blockbuster films,  Star Trek  has become one of the most influential sci-fi franchises of all time.

In the past few years, the Trek television universe has become one of the highlights of original programming on Paramount+ . Helmed by Alex Kurtzman, series like  Star Trek : Lower Decks  and  Picard  have pushed the boundaries of what can be done with the universe’s canon in their first seasons so far.

This year for Star Trek Day, with the premiere episodes of several Trek series and “Short Treks” will be available to view for free from Sept. 7-13. The episodes can be watched from Paramount+’s partner platforms Amazon, Apple and Roku, their official YouTube page, Pluto TV and the Paramount+ free content hub (U.S. only).

From the new releases like the second season of Strange New Worlds , to the old adventures of the Enterprise ,  Deep Space 9 ,  Voyager , and more, here’s how to watch Star Trek in order online.

Lucy is a long-time movie and television lover who is an approved critic on Rotten Tomatoes. She has written several reviews in her time, starting with a small self-ran blog called Lucy Goes to Hollywood before moving onto bigger websites such as What's on TV and What to Watch, with TechRadar being her most recent venture. Her interests primarily lie within horror and thriller, loving nothing more than a chilling story that keeps her thinking moments after the credits have rolled. Many of these creepy tales can be found on the streaming services she covers regularly.

When she’s not scaring herself half to death with the various shows and movies she watches, she likes to unwind by playing video games on Easy Mode and has no shame in admitting she’s terrible at them. She also quotes The Simpsons religiously and has a Blinky the Fish tattoo, solidifying her position as a complete nerd.

The fate of the galaxy rests in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk, is a delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock, a Vulcan, was raised in a logic-based society that rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason, their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going where no one has gone before. The human adventure has begun again.
