    Is the transformers guy and his bad robot nepo babies still involved?

    Not sure who you’re referring to here. By bad robot I assume you mean JJ Abrams? He only directed the 2 movies a decade ago as far as I’m aware. I don’t know of any transformer guys in star trek.

      No. Alex Kurtzman primarily, who is the showrunner for DSC and PIC, handed such a role for his previous successes like writing Transformers 2 - movie well known for it’s gripping story - and making smash hits like TASM2.

      But not just him, also Akiva Goldsman, Michael Chabon and Kirsten Beyer. You know, the four horsefolks of the apocalypse that ran trek into the sorry state it’s in today.

      JJ is actually a decent director (I’m a clovefield fan from back in the day). These people on the other hand are all talentless hacks.
