"STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN" BRINGS FANS A SUMMER OF SWEET REVENGE IN CELEBRATION OF THE FILM'S 40TH ANNIVERSARY

Collaborating with Brands Like Coolhaus and Funko, the Iconic Media Franchise Will Be Honoring This Momentous Occasion by Bringing Custom Sweets, a Khan-Inspired Collectible, Screenings of the Film, a Curated Khan-Centric Selection of Episodes and Movies on Paramount+, and More to "Star Trek" Fans

LOS ANGELES - June 3, 2022 - Paramount's "Star Trek" Franchise Group presents a Summer of Sweet Revenge, in celebration of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"'s 40th anniversary on Saturday, June 4, to fans across the country and beyond. They are teaming up with various brands to commemorate the film's birthday with a suite of activities that include pop-ups in New York City, Los Angeles and at San Diego Comic Con, as well as screenings of the film and activations in select cities. Fans are also able to find out how they can join in on the celebration by visiting WrathOfPKhan.com, a specially curated online hub with details on the activations, digital engagements and more.

Throughout the years, "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" has continued to be a compelling and iconic film, so much so that it has been referenced in many popular titles such as "Seinfeld," SOUTH PARK, "Saturday Night Live" and "The Big Bang Theory," to name a few. The portrayal of the film's antagonist Khan Noonien Singh by Ricardo Montalbán inspired the most infamous moment: William Shatner's scream of the name "KHAAAN!"

"Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"'s 40th anniversary Summer of Sweet Revenge will include collaborations with household name brands like Funko, Coolhaus and more. Additional details on each of these activations can be found below.

About the "Star Trek" Universe

In the 55+ years since the legendary creator Gene Roddenberry introduced the world to a "Star Trek" universe where "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations" remains its proud legacy, the series has continued to break barriers - inspiring generations of fans with a celebration of cultural diversity and inclusion, scientific exploration, and the pursuit of uncharted frontiers. Today, the "Star Trek" canon continues to thrive through film, television, animation, games, publishing, podcasts, experiences and most recently children's programming. Available in over 190 countries worldwide, the "Star Trek" franchise of 11 TV series, 13 films and over 800 episodes has been a mainstay in generating stories that are both exciting and thought-provoking, as well as vastly contributing to the pop culture lexicon throughout the years. Phrases originating from "Star Trek" have been incorporated into popular vernacular such as "live long and prosper," "set phasers to stun," "beam me up, Scotty" and many more. Over its more than five decades, the media franchise has also influenced countless technologies including the first flip phones, as well as being the inspiration behind the name of the first U.S. space shuttle. Additionally, the famous Vulcan salute from the original "Star Trek" is a universal cultural symbol. The "Star Trek" series, including STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, STAR TREK: PICARD, STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS, and the animated series STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS and STAR TREK: PRODIGY on Paramount+ are produced by CBS Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment. Executive producer Alex Kurtzman oversees the "Star Trek" universe across all platforms.
