Trump’s Influence: Is Star Trek Finally Ditching Woke Politics?

A fresh report circulates on the internet, implying that President Donald Trump’s administration may have plans to revitalize the Star Trek series, while Paramount might be shifting focus from their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategies.

It’s widely recognized that the latest series from Paramount, notably Discovery, have shifted their emphasis towards portraying a variety of characters, promoting diversity, and imparting messages to viewers. While critics may debate Star Trek, it is undeniable that this show has consistently explored social issues, and surprisingly, the stories have been compelling. Unfortunately, that’s not a claim that can be made about modern Star Trek.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 delayed

It’s being circulated that Paramount is reversing course on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. After canceling and seemingly disregarding Discovery from the canon, there are whispers that Paramount is reshooting Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds because they find it too progressive. This reportedly causes a delay in its release.

Information from the Tachyon Pulse Podcast on YouTube indicates that Russell T Davies is leaving “Doctor Who” at Disney’s request. The YouTuber also mentioned that Alex Kurtzman, head of Star Trek at Paramount, may step down by Christmas, and a rumor suggests that the new “Star Trek Academy” series, featuring Marvel trans-activist actress Tatiana Maslany, is undergoing significant reshoots.

As a movie aficionado, I’ve been keeping an eye on the developments with “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”. The shift in production and apparent move away from diversity and inclusivity (DEI) themes might be related to recent remarks made by Brendan Carr, the Trump-appointed Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. In a conversation with Bloomberg, he expressed his views on the subject matter.

For businesses seeking FCC approval, I strongly recommend taking immediate action to eliminate any insidious forms of discrimination related to Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion in your operations.

What does that have to do with Paramount and Star Trek?

Currently, Paramount is seeking approval for a merger with Skydance. It’s clear that Paramount has embraced diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in its Star Trek franchise, and it might have secured financing through DEI programs.

With the Trump administration now responsible for deciding on the Skydance merger and expressing opposition towards diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, it seems that Paramount may be adjusting its focus accordingly. This could potentially lead us back to the days of compelling narratives in Star Trek once more.

When will Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 be released?

As a devoted fan, I’ve eagerly binged through Seasons 1 and 2 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, with the first premiering in May last year, followed by Season 2 in June this year. Unfortunately, Paramount hasn’t shared any news about when we can expect Season 3. However, whispers suggest that it might grace our screens sometime in 2025!

The YouTube analyst implies that the reason for the delay in Season 3 is due to Paramount taking out politically progressive content, leading to reshoots.

Seasons 1 and 2 are available to watch on Paramount+.
