At least, we can surmise that from what actor Anton Yelchin just announced:

He has signed up to play Chekov in Trek XI, Trek XII and Trek XIII.

Assuming JJ Abrams version of Star Trek is successful, there will
obviously be more movies, but a lot of contracts are written this way.
If Abrams version is a complete disaster then those options for further
movies (with those actors) will be simply be dropped.

Yes: the idea is that if the movie is successful, they can make
another movie without worrying that the actors in this one will ask
for astronomical amounts of money.

Unless if flops. We heard that about the new Superman movies, too.
"Man of Steel" was supposed to be the second one in 2009. It appears
to be dead now.

It would be more accurate to call this thread,

"Paramount agress they might make two
more Trek films if XI doesn't flop."

Yep. Signing actors for multiple films is routine, but it's no
guarantee that there actually will BE multiple films.

Assuming it's no flop, but from everything I've heard Trek fans are going to

If it is a silly "reboot" (as some things point to), then nope, real
"Trek" fans will hate it because it will pee all over the already
established history and create a split franchise.

The "don't really care about 'Star Trek', just as long as it's got
space ships" fans might well love it though.

Then there are the "slap the words 'Star Trek' onto any old garbage and
I'll watch it" fans who will literally watch any old garbage with "Star
Trek" in the title - "Star Trek: Smarter than a fifth grader" anyone??
