It’s been 50 years since the first episode of the Star Trek TV series was released in the USA. It was broadcast on NBC on Thursday September 8, 1966. It took another three years until the first movie 'Star Trek: The Motion Picture' was released.
William Shatner, alias Captain James T. Kirk, was to star in 7 of the 13 movies that have been released until today – a feat also accomplished by Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy), Captain Montgomery 'Scotty' Scott (James Doohan) and Commander Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig).
The below graphic shows how successful the movies were at the international box office and gives you an idea of how much profit the franchise raked in for production company Paramount Pictures over the years. Only 'Star Trek: Nemesis' from 2002 hardly broke even.
