You know, I think "Wrath of Khan" is overrated, but at least it never tries to convince us that David Marcus is some kind of awesome badass sexpot chosen one.

(Clockwise from the bottom) Model shop supervisor Steve Gawley, effects co-supervisor Ken Ralston, camera assistant Sel Eddy, and stagehand Bill Beck unpack the model of the refit Enterprise for use in the filming of Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan. The 1/120th scale model was originally used for Star Trek: The Motion Picture and had been built by Douglas Trumbull’s Magicom under the supervision of Jim Dow.

According to Susan Sackett’s The Making of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, building the Enterprise was a costly endeavour in time and money — it took 14 months and $150,000 to build (around $600k in 2022) — but advancements in plastics allowed the highly-detailed 8-foot-long ship to weigh in at just 85 pounds, making it quite a bit easier to position for filming. For comparison, Dow said, the Millennium Falcon miniature used in filming Star Wars had been roughly four feet by four feet in size and weighed over 300 pounds.

That said, it was still massive, with Industrial Light and Magic’s Ralston telling Kay Anderson from Cinefantastique: “I hate the Enterprise model. I think it’s made out of lead. It took eight guys to mount it for a shot and a forklift to move it around.” (He would work out some of that anger with the ship later.)

It was also finicky enough that, Trumbull revealed in an interview with American Film magazine, ILM reached out to him to help get its lighting up and running again. This vindicated the special effects pioneer a bit; his company had underbid ILM by $1.5 million for the Star Trek II contract but had lost out because Paramount had wished to seal their relationship with Lucasfilm after the success of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

(Of note to some nitpickers like myself is the fact that some contemporary behind-the-scenes accounts, including the one from which this photo was taken, there is talk of the model being made of metal. There’s enough evidence to contradict this in various interviews from people who worked on the films over the years that I feel comfortable saying that they’re wrong.)

Photo scanned from my personal collection. It originally appeared in the July-August 1982 issue of Cinefantastique.

“Khan, you bloodsucker! You're going to have to do your own dirty work now! Do you hear me? Do you?” “Kirk? Kirk, you're still alive, my old friend?” “Still, "old friend"! You've managed to kill just about everyone else, but like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target!” “Perhaps I no longer need to try, Admiral.”

[Khan beams the Genesis device away]

“Oh, no! Let go! He can't take it...! “

“Khan... Khan, you've got Genesis, but you don't have me. You were going to kill me, Khan. You're going to have to come down here. You're going to have to come down here” “I've done far worse than kill you. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me, as you left her; marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet... buried alive! Buried alive...! “

“KHAAANNNN!”

[echo]

“KHAAANNNN! “

Happy 40th Anniversary to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the Original Theatrical Release of STAR TREK II The Wrath of Khan

June 4 1982

Part 4 : promotional art (one-sheets) and photos

1 teaser promo poster-style art with original approved title (Paramount relented to George Lucas’ request for a title change not wanting any confusion with his own upcoming “Revenge of the Jedi”; Paramount was now in the George Lucas business with his Industrial Light and Magic delivering the optical effects for STAR TREK II as well as his creation of Indiana Jones -- “Raiders of the Lost Ark” which Paramount distributed and were eager for a sequel)

2 - 4 art by the great commercial artist and illustrator Robert Peak developing ideas for the theatrical one-sheet for the Wrath of Khan; Mr. Peak, whose art for film posters included amazing pieces for “Apocalypse Now” and “Excalibur,” also provided the instantly iconic primary promotional art for STAR TREK the Motion Picture

5 Mr. Peak’s final art for the STAR TREK II poster without credits and text

6 the final one-sheet; unfortunately, Paramount decided to use this fantastic painted illustration only for England and several other “foreign” territories

7 instead, Paramount went with an unimaginative, wholly pedestrian release poster for Khan’s domestic run (the U.S. and Canada)

8 - 12 additional foreign release posters

above: a selection of presskit photos and the lobby card set from STAR TREK II the Wrath of Khan

above: cover for novelization written by Vonda MacIntyre and art for novelization by the great Boris Vallejo without text

above: sleeve art and credits for the original soundtrack recording from Atlantic, composed and conducted by the late great James Horner (the score that, in many ways, vaulted him to potential importance among composers for film)
