Star Trek fans are having a field day today.
CBS All Access just released the very first full trailer for its highly anticipated series, Star Trek: Picard. The Star Trek series brings back Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard, showing the former USS Enterprise Captain decades after the adventures of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
And Starfleet’s finest is no longer actually at Starfleet.
Set in the wake of the destruction of Romulus during the events of the first Star Trek Kelvin timeline movie (it’s a long, suitably time-bending story), Star Trek: Picard follows the titular former captain of the Enterprise after he has formally retired from Starfleet. But Picard finds himself thrust back into action, building a team for a new mission concerning the lingering spectre of an all-too-familiar threat…
While it seems like Picard is enjoying his retirement, the former Captain finds himself being called into action. Now, the former Starfleet Captain has to build a new team and return to the stars after being approached by a mysterious woman who brings with her the shadow of a very familiar threat.
In previous interviews with Picard showrunner Alex Kurtzman, fans have been told that the series is going to take a very different tone from CBS All Access latest Star Trek series, Discovery – though it seems like both the shows are going to take on a serialized format.
He’s not alone though, to the surprise of us all: Star Trek: Picard sees Jean-Luc recruit returning faces from Voyager and The Next Generation
There’s Brent Spiner who’s reprising his role as the android Data. There’s also Jeri Ryan who’s returning as the rehabilitated Borg Seven of Nine.
There are a number of new faces as well, including the actors and actresses Isa Briones who’s playing Dahj, Santiago Cabrera who’s playing Cristobal Rios, Michelle Hurd who’s playing Raffi Musiker, Alison Pill who’s playing Dr. Agnes Jurati, Evan Evagora who’s playing Elnor, and Harry Treadway who’s playing Narek.
The name of Jean-Luc Picard’s dog has been confirmed, and it’s rather perfect.
Picard’s pooch — first glimpsed in the upcoming Star Trek spin-off’s poster and teaser photo above — is, of course…”Number One.”
Some enterprising fans (ahem) suspected this from the poster where if you zoom-in on the dog’s Starfleet insignia-shaped tag — there’s a “No. 1” on it — but CBS All Access has now confirmed that “Number One” is indeed the good boy’s name.
But for now…
Stay tuned for news on when the series will drop.
