SDCC NEWS: A NEW ‘STAR TREK’ SERIES

“STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY:

The new series will follow the adventures of a new class of Starfleet cadets as they come of age in one of the most legendary places in the galaxy. The series will introduce viewers to this young group of cadets as they come together to pursue a common dream of hope and optimism. Under the watchful and demanding eyes of their instructors, they will discover what it takes to become Starfleet officers as they navigate blossoming friendships, explosive rivalries, first loves and a new enemy that threatens both the Academy and the Federation itself.”

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is set to begin production next month, in August 2024… OH SNAP!

Tig Notaro will once again play Star Trek: Discovery’s Jett Reno as a series regular, and she will be joined by Robert Picardo, who will reprise his role as The Doctor from Star Trek: Voyager. These cast members will join the previously annonuced additions of Holly Hunter and guest star Paul Giamatti.

 

And while they aren’t series regulars, Oded Fehr and Mary Wiseman will have guest starring roles as Star Trek: Discovery’s Admiral Vance and Sylvia Tilly, respectively. OUCH! Why isn’t Tilly a regular?
