====Anton Yelchin's death====
Yelchin was crushed to death by his 2016 [[Jeep Grand Cherokee]] on June 19, 2016, a little more than a month before the scheduled release of ''Star Trek Beyond'' on July 22, 2016. All filming had been completed and post-production had started. A dedication to Yelchin's memory was inserted into the credits. [[J. J. Abrams]], producer of the reboot trilogy and director of its first two films, has stated that the role will not be recast for future sequels, implying the character of Chekov will be written out in future films.
