CBS All Access today announced a series order for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, based on the years Captain Christopher Pike manned the helm of the U.S.S. Enterprise. The series will feature fan favorites from season two of Star Trek: Discovery, Anson Mount as Captain Christopher Pike, Rebecca Romijn as Number One and Ethan Peck as Science Officer Spock. The series will follow Captain Pike, Science Officer Spock and Number One in the decade before Captain Kirk boarded the U.S.S. Enterprise, as they explore new worlds around the galaxy.

The series premiere was written by Akiva Goldsman with the story by Akiva Goldsman, Alex Kurtzman and Jenny Lumet. Goldsman, Kurtzman and Lumet will serve as executive producers in addition to Henry Alonso Myers, Heather Kadin, Rod Roddenberry and Trevor Roth. Aaron Baiers, Akela Cooper and Davy Perez will serve as co-executive producers. Akiva Goldsman will remain an executive producer and a key part of the creative team on Star Trek: Picard as well. The series will be produced by CBS Television Studios, Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment.

“Fans fell in love with Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn and Ethan Peck’s portrayals of these iconic characters when they were first introduced on Star Trek: Discovery last season,” said Julie McNamara, Executive Vice President and Head of Programming, CBS All Access. “This new series will be a perfect complement to the franchise, bringing a whole new perspective and series of adventures to Star Trek.”

“When we said we heard the fans’ outpouring of love for Pike, Number One and Spock when they boarded Star Trek: Discovery last season, we meant it,” said Alex Kurtzman. “These iconic characters have a deep history in Star Trek canon, yet so much of their stories has yet to be told. With Akiva and Henry at the helm, the Enterprise, its crew and its fans are in for an extraordinary journey to new frontiers in the Star Trek universe.”

“This is a dream come true, literally,” said Akiva Goldsman. “I have imagined myself on the bridge of the Enterprise since the early 1970s. I’m honored to be a part of this continuing journey along with Alex, Henry and the fine folks at CBS.”

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is the latest addition to the expanding Star Trek franchise on CBS All Access, which includes hit original series Star Trek: Picard; Star Trek: Discovery, returning with season three later this year; the service’s upcoming first animated series, Star Trek: Lower Decks, developed by Emmy Award winner Mike McMahan (Rick and Morty); and the development of a Section 31-based series with Michelle Yeoh. A CG-animated Star Trek series aimed at younger audiences is also in the works for Nickelodeon.

Cool, hopefully it's as good as Orville and Old Trek.

not bad, not bad at all this one

only have season 1 finale to watch now



a alternate Pike is also in the new Star Trek films with Chris Pine as Kirk and Bruce Greenwood portraying him as rank of admiral



tbh everyone knows the main timeline, so you don't have much room for originality, but i loved that one character Hemmer, also nice he is the first half blind, short sighted actor in the star trek franchise :love: :love:

season 2 premiered :love:


that was a great premiere episode, lots of Spock action this time as acting captain while Pike is away to fight for Una



also first scenes of Carol Kane as the new character Pelia, :lovedup: hope she stays around for more eps, i'm getting female scotty vibes with her, also i knew i recognised her from something, but she also played Ghost of Christmas Present on Scrooged, and also in the series Taxi, she's funny :D



Doctor M'Benga being a total badass :clap1:

great season 2 so far :love:


this weeks episode 3 was superb especially
