Kurtzman is a longtime Trek veteran, and co-wrote both the 2009 Star Trek film and its sequel, Star Trek Into Darkness. "There is a very short list of writer-producer-directors that every film and television studio wants to be associated with, and Alex and his Secret Hideout team are always at the top," David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios, said in a statement sent to both news outlets, and to Ars.
