Patrick Stewart fans rejoice, for Star Trek’s Jean-Luc Picard is returning to the small screen! An announced project back in summer that none saw coming but never knew we needed, in which details were extremely scarce. According to CBS Corporations newly appointed chief creative officer David Nevins, the untitled series will premiere at the end of 2019 on CBS All Access. More details have just been revealed!
The co-creator and executive producer of Star Trek: Discovery, Alex Kurtzman, will oversee all development of the show’s life cycle, which will further showcase the glorious life of our dear captain. Stewart teased us all with a small secret he probably wasn’t supposed to share!
I’m personally ready for more Star Trek in my life, and I’m ready to see what the new series has to offer to the beloved franchise. Stewart has been pushing the writing team to do something different for a long time on the depth of his character, which is something Patrick has always been known for. As of writing this, none of the original castmates of the series have been asked to return. Who knows, the stars are limitless you know.
