I can't see him ever returning to direct Star Trek. He's just getting producer credit (and revenue) for jump starting the franchise.

There's also the fact that he's been a Star Wars fan since childhood, and never a trekkie. Star Trek was a job. Force Awakens is a passion.
Which doesn't mean he won't **** it up...
(Total tangent but the funniest thing to me lately has been people complaining about TFA possibly being at it's core a remake. Like the first Star Wars is some original thing, rather than a pastiche of Dune, serials and Kurosawa movies...)
