If one couldn’t guess from any of the promotional material or the title itself, Star Trek Into Darkness is heading into much more grim territory than its predecessor. With a release now just about a month away for J.J. Abrams‘ sequel, Paramount is continuing its onslaught of media, delivering a new poster and TV spot ahead of yet another new trailer next Tuesday.

Featuring the franchise’s flagship intergalactic vehicle plummeting to its potential doom, it’s an eye-catching piece of art, but at this point we could do with out the next four weeks of marketing and just wait to see the film itself. But Hollywood needs to do what they get paid to do and one check out the new poster and spot below for the film also starring Chris Pine, Benedict Cumberbatch, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, John Cho, Bruce Greenwood and Peter Weller.

Star Trek Into Darkness opens on May 17th.
