In what is some of the best Trek news in a while, a brand-new Trek show, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/em> – featuring Anson Mount, Ethan Peck<\/strong>, and Rebecca Romijn<\/strong> – is coming to CBS All Access<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Here is the press release: “CBS All Access<\/em> today announced a series order for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/em>, based on the years Captain Christopher Pike manned the helm of the U.S.S. Enterprise<\/em>. The series will feature fan favorites from season two of Star Trek: Discovery<\/em>, 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<\/em>, as they explore new worlds around the galaxy.<\/p>\n

“The series premiere was written by Akiva Goldsman<\/strong> with the story by Akiva Goldsman, Alex Kurtzman<\/strong> and Jenny Lumet<\/strong>. Goldsman, Kurtzman and Lumet will serve as executive producers in addition to Henry Alonso Myers, Heather Kadin, Rod Roddenberry<\/strong> and Trevor Roth<\/strong>. Aaron Baiers, Akela Cooper<\/strong> and Davy Perez<\/strong> 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<\/em> as well. The series will be produced by CBS Television Studios, Secret Hideout<\/em> and Roddenberry Entertainment<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“‘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<\/em> last season,’ said Julie McNamara<\/strong>, Executive Vice President and Head of Programming, CBS All Access<\/em>. ‘This new series will be a perfect complement to the franchise, bringing a whole new perspective and series of adventures to Star Trek<\/em>.’<\/p>\n

“‘When we said we heard the fans\u2019 outpouring of love for Pike, Number One and Spock when they boarded Star Trek: Discovery<\/em> last season, we meant it,’ said Alex Kurtzman. ‘These iconic characters have a deep history in Star Trek<\/em> canon, yet so much of their stories have yet to be told. With Akiva and Henry at the helm, the Enterprise<\/em>, its crew and its fans are in for an extraordinary journey to new frontiers in the Star Trek<\/em> universe.<\/p>\n

“‘This is a dream come true, literally,’ said Akiva Goldsman. ‘I have imagined myself on the bridge of the Enterprise<\/em> 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<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

There’s no word yet on when the show will arrive on CBS All Acces<\/em>s or how many episodes are planned but TrekToday<\/em> will update readers as that information becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
