But Producers Still Don't Know What They Will Do with the Character

it would be easier to give him a nice send off saying maybe he's doing something amazing at starfleet academy rather than killing his character off

[bulastar]

I agree, just say he's retired from Starfleet or on leave or something. Killing the character off-screen is in poor taste imo

i like the way they handled paul walker's death in furious 7

[ahkna]

I did not expect to cry in that movie, but I found the end really touching.

[pagesinked]

Yeah I really hope they just say he's been reassigned to another ship or gone back to Starfleet for some more training.

[laurent]

exactly. there's no need to kill him off.

[la_petite_singe]

Yeah, IA. Give the character a happy 'ending,' it's the least they can do. :\

[judgmental]

i think that's the route they will end up going for, it'd be kinda tasteless to kill him off and jj knows it
