Trek <http://movies.ign.com/objects/692/692255.html> reinvention inches
closer, Trekkies are wriggling in their *reproduction control deck

anticipation. However, only one city can host the true world premiere.
This time, the lucky city is Sydney in that beautiful land of milk, honey
and kangaroo burgers, Australia.

In a release from Paramount Pictures Australia earlier today, the company
announced director/producer J.J. Abrams and cast members Eric Bana, Chris
Pine, Zachary Quinto and Karl Urban will present the film to 1,600 guests in
Sydney Opera House's legendary Concert Hall on April 7.

According to the release, "This highly anticipated premiere marks only the
third occasion that a film has debuted at Sydney Opera House and the first
time a film has premiered in the Concert Hall at the acclaimed venue."

"Not only are we honoured to have J.J. Abrams and the cast here in Sydney
for the World Premiere of the stunning new STAR TREK, we are also very
excited to present this event at one of Australia's—and the world's—most
famous locations, Sydney Opera House," said Mike Selwyn, Managing Director
of Paramount Pictures Australia.
