The film is “set decades before the original 2009 Star Trek film.” Toby Haynes (AndorBlack Mirror “USS Callister”) is directing based on a screenplay by Seth Grahame-Smith (The Lego Batman Movie), with J.J. Abrams returning as producer.

[…] the origin story movie is set to start filming by the end of the year. There are no details yet on the plot, specific time setting, or cast. If Paramount can move fast enough they could get the origin movie into theaters by 2026—in time for Star Trek’s 60th anniversary.

I’d be down for an Andor-styled origin story.

But ... I thought the 2009 film was an origin story?

It was literally the story of how the Kelvinverse came to exist and it followed Kirk, Spock, McCoy and co from their Academy days.

Now we get to see their conceptions

My take is that it’s a Starfleet origin story post-Archer.

EDIT: looking up the timeline of events that puts us somewhere between 2155-2258. I’d say there’s probably a movie within those 100-odd years.
