For the first time in over ten years, there are no new Star Trek shows being made or even planned. This is probably because of the recent changes happening at Paramount, now under new ownership by Skydance. However, one potential series, Star Trek: Year One, which was initially mentioned last year, might still move forward. This series would focus on Captain Kirk and Spock’s first adventures together aboard the Enterprise, essentially recreating the beginning of their famous five-year mission. Henry Alonso Myers, the showrunner of Strange New Worlds, recently told Trek Movie at the Saturn Awards that they have officially pitched Year One to Paramount+. Here’s what he said:
We’ve given Paramount a lot of material to work with, and it’s currently under their review. They’re deciding what to do with it. There’s a lot of enthusiasm for our show, and of course, for Star Trek in general, over there.
There’s a possibility of a new Star Trek: Year One series using the sets built for Strange New Worlds. However, now that Strange New Worlds has finished filming, it’s unclear if those sets are still available. According to production designer Henry Alonso Meyers, the sets haven’t been taken down yet, but the decision of what to do with them – and whether to use them for Year One – is still pending. They are currently waiting to hear from the studio about their plans.
If the show Year One moves forward, most of the actors from Strange New Worlds would probably be back. In addition to Paul Wesley as James T. Kirk, Ethan Peck would definitely reprise his role as Spock. We can also expect to see Jess Bush as Christine Chapel, Martin Quinn as Scotty, and Celia Rose Gooding as Uhura return. Plus, the season finale is introducing Thomas Jane as Dr. McCoy and Kai Murakami as Sulu, completing the main crew of the original Enterprise from the 1960s series. Paramount might decide to produce Year One as a short, limited series. With Star Trek‘s 60th anniversary coming up in 2026, there’s likely to be a Trek project in production somewhere, and this could be it.
