After months of waiting with almost no hint or peek of what was to come, we finally have the first official plot synopsis for STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS.

Granted, the plot below still has no information on the questions most fans are asking (who the hell is the villain?!), but after only seeing a three-framed clip and some random on-set pictures, an official piece of marketing is a nice change of place.

Read the full synopsis below, and let us know what you think!

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS teleports into theaters May 17, 2013.

“In Summer 2013, pioneering director J.J. Abrams will deliver an explosive action thriller that takes ‘Star Trek Into Darkness.’ When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis. With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction. As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.”
