Noah Hawley continues to make the promotional rounds for Fargo season four, and predictably, he keeps getting asked about Star Trek. Specifically, his proposed treatment for the next film installment of the franchise.

If you haven’t been following along, until recently, Hawley was the director-of-choice for the next Star Trek film, for which we’ve had relatively few details. But the addition of ex-FOX executive Emma Watts to Paramount Pictures’ Motion Picture Group upended those plans when she opted to put Hawley’s project on hold while she evaluates the future of Trek films. Hawley gave a few details about his proposed film in an interview with Variety last week (“We’re not doing Kirk and we’re not doing Picard,” he said), and now he’s given a new interview with Entertainment Weekly revealing a few more details.

Here’s what Hawley had to say: “I can’t say much about it except it’s an argument for why humanity should prevail and why we should come together and unite, which I think is important - to look at the United Federation of Planets and remember at some point Earth is what we are now and then we invented warp technology and met extraterrestrial life and everybody came together. But how? How did we get from where we are now to where they are then? And what happens if that utopian reality is challenged? There are times of challenge and war when we have to prove our values all over again. Maybe there’s a time in the Federation where this ideal is challenged and it won’t survive on its own. It needs to be saved.”

It’s a pretty vague description, and not an entirely novel one. In any case, whether the film will see the light of day in the future is now up to Watts and Paramount Pictures.

Regardless of what happens with Hawley’s Star Trek film, it’s probably worth you checking out the latest season of Fargo, airing from Sunday, September 27th on FX and Hulu. After all, if not for the Fargo promotional tour, we might not be getting these little nuggets of Star Trek movie information.
