Paramount announced on Tuesday that STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS will be released in 2D and 3D on Thursday May 16th. Previously, the film was set for “sneak peek” IMAX 3D screenings on Wednesday May 15th and all other screens were scheduled to follow two days later on the 17th.

According to a Paramount press release, the bump is due to “strong interest” and the film selling out in several IMAX 3D locations.
