Orci will have no involvement in the project whatsoever. He was also set to executive produce the movie, reported Deadline.
The film is set to be a modern reinvention of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, a group of ordinary high school kids who find themselves infused with extraterrestrial powers and must harness those powers as a team to save the world.
Orci is taking over the 'Star Trek' director's chair after JJ Abrams left to helm the upcoming 'Star Wars Episode VII'.
He has also worked on various TV shows such as 'Fringe', 'Alias' and 'Hawaii Five-0'.
'Star Trek 3' will be his feature film directing debut.
