    But … I thought the 2009 film was an origin story?

    It was literally the story of how the Kelvinverse came to exist and it followed Kirk, Spock, McCoy and co from their Academy days.

      And Discovery. And Strange New Worlds. And Enterprise. And First Contact. How many origin stories does Star Trek need? Paramount needs to stop with the prequels.

      My take is that it’s a Starfleet origin story post-Archer.

      EDIT: looking up the timeline of events that puts us somewhere between 2155-2258. I’d say there’s probably a movie within those 100-odd years.
