When it comes to J.J. Abrams‘ new Star Trek sequel, Star Trek into Darkness, we’re still… well, very much in the dark. Granted, there’s been the odd leaked plot detail or set photo, but those are few and far between, and Abrams himself isn’t giving much away (we wouldn’t expect any less from the director). So, we were all delighted when in an interview on Conan last night, the filmmaker shared a brief clip from the new film.
Actually, ‘brief’ is an understatement. It’s three frames of Spock (Zachary Quinto) in a volcano, and according to Conan, we’re all going to lose our minds over this. Check it out for yourselves below:
Now, if you didn’t quite catch that, we don’t blame you. Here’s a freeze frame (via /Film) to give you a better look at this snippet of a scene.

Well, we’re not sure about you, but our minds are still intact, and in their rightful places… (well, as much as they were before, anyway) — However, Trek fans may already be pondering over what this clip actually means. Are there any hidden clues to get worked up over? What is Spock doing in a volcano? Let us know in the comments.
Star Trek Into Darkness opens in theaters on May 17th.

Bronwen Winter Phoenix is a 26-year-old three-time published fiction author and freelance journalist currently residing in the UK.
A highly-devoted supporter of the Root Vegetable Rights Campaign (1976 – present), she is therefore one of those evil meat-eater types. Of course, she’s not adverse to a good parsnip or two, as long as they’ve been treated right.
Not having a clue what she’s currently doing in life, Bronwen has vowed to abandon all her woes in the deepest and darkest Amazonian jungle she can find, in a loin cloth, if things go inherently wrong for her. Also, having received various offers from men promising to take her to Easter Island, she still hasn’t been yet. Still a sore point, and she is still open to offers.
Under the alias of Capt. Feral Phoenix, Bronwen started up her own online magazine called ‘Feral Army’ where she freely employed a bunch of writers she called ‘ferals’ to write for her. Bronwen herself managed to interview many celebrities and write about things such as Carl Jung and horror writing before Feral Army finally closed its doors in early 2011. It had a good run, but it needed the funding rather badly.
Her publisher at Cauliay Publishing once stated that if there was an X-Factor for writers, she would be the winner. Little does he know that if there was an X-Factor for writers, she would probably kill herself. You can read more of Bronwen at her site:
