However, Jung explained that he was not sure about taking the project when it was first offered to him. According to Trek Core, he stated, "I was hesitant to take [the job] because, I mean, you'd have to be kind of an idiot to not see that opportunity - but it's a little intimidating. There's just a huge amount of information and so many years and layers that go into [the Star Trek] canon."
Meanwhile, it was reported that a concept art for the film was recently leaked. With that, fans were able to get a closer look into the USS Franklin. Previous reports stated that the USS Franklin will play a major role in the upcoming film.
