‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ Trailer: Capt. Kirk Treks Into an Ambush (Video)

Kirk (Chris Pine) allows John Harrison (Benedict Cumberbatch) to lead his ship and crew into a trap

The new "Star Trek Into Darkness" trailer shows that villain John Harrison allows himself to be captured by the USS Enterprise crew only to lead them into an intergalactic ambush.
