Overseas earnings rarely play into the reasoning behind producing and funding a Hollywood movie. Banking on non-Americans to get behind American films and concepts, especially in the wake of a non-movie star type of film such as Star Trek, is not the type of gamble that studios and producers like to make.

Even though it would mean losing the current cast members, I'd just as soon see a new series set in the rebooted universe. Seems like that would be the best of all worlds - the new takes on previous stuff would be interesting. Would have the potential to be the best Star Trek series ever.
