- Benicio del Toro met with J.J. Abrams to discuss the villain role but ultimately decided not to take the part.
- The opening sequence set on Nibiru was conceived when a writer suggested showing the Enterprise rising from the ocean, blending action and comedy in a style inspired by Raiders of the Lost Ark.
