Star Trek Into Darkness Gets a New International Trailer With Just a Little More Plot

Another day, another Star Trek trailer that stays vague on Benedict Cumberbatch‘s character. What it does have, however, is a lady standing around in her underwear for no apparent reason, right in the middle of the late-trailer-explosion/reaction-face montage. Apparently, this was included based on the assumption that folks on the internet would choose that frame to examine closely and at high resolution, because a url was hidden in it that linked to a previously unreleased poster, implicitly rewarding a fanbase for ogling a female character. So, that’s gross.

She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
