Maybe so.
I heard this morning that they've basically given full control over to Alex Kurtzman, who produced, along with Abrams, the latest batch of movies. While I liked the initial reboot film, I disliked the second film so much that I haven't even bothered with the third.
The other rumor is that Kurtzman is bringing in Akiva Goldsman, whom he worked with on Fringe. While I really enjoyed several seasons of Fringe and the original concept, it went way off the tracks in the final two season (and the first season was up and down, as if they couldn't figure out if they wanted to be an original show or a clone of the X-Files).
The bottom line is that to me, there's way too much chaos happening around a program that's supposed to begin airing in May 2017. I think they need to step back, reassess and shoot for a January 2018 debut at the earliest.
Knowing Paramount though, they'll make the wrong decision and muck it up.
