BZZZ! Wrong.;-)
It was a female first officer - not captain. (Majel Barrett played the role of "Number One". Jeffrey Hunter played Captain Christopher Pike.)
And, um... Halle Berry commanding a starship? Seriously?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Call me nitpicky, but... I have to take exception with the erroneous "in production" statement in the linked article (and the "in the early stages of production" description in Lucy's post).
"In production" means actually filming ("early stages of" could maybe be stretched to mean casting and set construction), but as of now there isn't even a completed (much less approved) script - not to mention a budget, cast, crew, sets or even a greenlight from the studio. STXI is more (_most_) accurately described as "in active development."
First off, it's $17M.;-) And there's updated info and clarification at Yahoo/Reuters, AICN, and Yahoo/Hollywood Reporter. Don't panic or freak out. This looks like a rumor that got out of control, and is now being actively denied by the powers-that-be.
