Several weeks ago, AICN posted a image claiming it was the first picture of the redesigned U.S.S. Enterprise from J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek movie. But then CGI artist Gabriel Koerner confirmed this was actually one of his designs and not the Enterprise from the movie.
Then, the first real pic of the new Enterprise was revealed online, showing the saucer being built, but people are still thinking that Koerner design is the new ship from the movie.
"Star Trek (Reborn) is getting emails from people that think 'In the Harsh Light of Fate' is the script--or at least part of the script--for Abrams film; and the only reason they think that is becuase they also think Gabe's design is the Enterprise in the upcoming movie." said Jeremy Grunloh, creator and writer of the online fan series Star Trek (Reborn), which uses Koerner design as their starship.
"I think they're quite beautiful. A lot of nice work." Star Trek movie co-writer Roberto Orci told TrekMovie.com about Koerner design and images "You just can't deny the SHAPE of the ship, which is so great - so elegant."
Finally, Koener wrote the following message at TrekWeb message board :
"I am not involved in Paramount/Bad Robot Star Trek feature film directed by J.J. Abrams in any way, material or immaterial."
"My speculative designs and artwork have been mistaken for official production art because they share in concept the design assignments to the art department of this film."
"However, they are not, nor planned to be, nor ever planned to be, used by the production as official redesigned interpretations of Star Trek spacecraft, and there are not plans for this to change."
Well said, Gabe.
So, there you are. TrekWeb hopes this puts an end to this rumor.
