Nicholas Meyer blocked out memos he received from Gene Roddenberry during filming of Star Trek II

In the Star Trek series, Nicholas Meyer was selected as director for the second film, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Despite the movie’s ultimate success, it wasn’t without its challenges. Although it’s now widely recognized as one of the best films in the franchise, Star Trek II encountered obstacles. One such obstacle was Gene Roddenberry, who wasn’t fond of the film’s storyline. In fact, he is said to have intentionally tried to sabotage the movie’s plot, particularly stirring up fans about the death of Spock. [Adapted from Slashfilm]
