Another Look at Dubai’s STAR TREK BEYOND Set

This weekend brought our first look at STAR TREK BEYOND in Dubai, with a glimpse at what appears to be the leading edge of a starship. Now, we have another view of this ongoing build at the foot of the Central Park Towers in Dubai.

While the ever-present greenscreen setup will serve to both mask the city behind the set and provide a canvas for a digital extension — implying that filming at this location will be done on the ground level — questions still remain about the nature of this build. We’re not quite sure if the blue discoloration over the right side of the set is simply a trick of the light, but it certainly seems to be a bit more than shadow on the construction.

Until we’re able to see another shot of this set piece, however, to verify or eliminate the blue coloration — we’re not jumping to any conclusions.

UPDATE: Here’s a pair of additional views, from a higher vantage point:

Based on these, we’re discounting the blue coloration from the first photo above as simply shadowing. Now that we can see some people around the set, we can finally get a good idea of the size of this construction.
