Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Update Revealed at Comic-Con 2020

In May, CBS All Access announced Star Trek: Strange New Worlds as one of the new series in development as part of the Star Trek Universe. During Thursday's Star Trek Universe panel for Comic-Con@Home, executive producer Alex Kurtzman offered on update on the Star Trek: Discovery spinoff, which follows the crew of the USS Enterprise introduced in Discovery's second season. Kurtzman reveals he's been keeping the Captain Pike, Spock, and Number One-led show a secret since last year's Comic-Con, but now a writers' room is active, and they've already broken down the first 10 episodes of the show.

"I really wanted to tell everyone about it last Comic-Con," Kurtzman said while introducing the panel. "People were poking around and asking questions, and we couldn't say anything. But we were already having real active conversations at that point.

"The room has started. There are 10 stories broken, which is very exciting. They are just sort of at the beginning. But it was one of those shows that I think everybody came in with such enthusiasm and so much love."

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds stars Anson Mount, Ethan Peck, and Rebecca Romijn later appeared during the Star Trek: Discovery portion of the panel to talk about their characters' roles in Season Two of that series. They also discussed how their experience in that season affects their character's trajectory in Strange New Worlds.

since she is supposed to be in season three of Discovery. It's possible that she might lead Section 31 nine centuries later.

The good news is that the animated series "Lower Decks" is supposed to begin on August 6 so make sure that your CBS All-Access subscription is current.

I think that the third season of Discovery will start sometime in September. However, I know that one of the most difficult aspects of finishing the show is getting the music added to the episodes because of the pandemic since they have a 60 member orchestra performing. I read that the musicians are playing their parts separately and that their performances will be blended together electronically.
