Sadly, the film marks actor Anton Yelchin's last Star Trek film, after his death earlier this month due to a tragic accident. Last week, Paramount Pictures cancelled a Star Trek Beyond event at the 63rd Cannes Lions festival, where the cast of the highly anticipated sci-fi film were set to appear.

Star Trek director J.J. Abrams penned a note to Yelchin, which he shared via Twitter. "Anton -- you were brilliant. You were kind. You were funny as hell, and supremely talented," the hand-written letter read. "And you weren't here nearly long enough. Missing you… JJ."
