Robert Picardo. Star Trek. Voyager
The Big Picture The Star Trek franchise returns to Hall H at San Diego Comic Con. On Saturday, SDCC hosted a massive panel featuring cast and crew from multiple Star Trek shows. Alex Kurtzman as well as co-showrunner Noga Landau took the time to dish on the upcoming Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. Four familiar faces were announced at the panel, joining the previously announced cast. Tig Notaro , Oded Fehr , Mary Wiseman and Robert Picardo are reprising their roles for the upcoming series.
When Collider's Sam Coley talked with Wiseman back in May, Wiseman brushed off the question about the possibility of joining the Discovery spin-off, with a "No, I don't know." Now we know that Wiseman will indeed be returning to the world of Star Trek as well two other Discovery alums and the technically immortal hologram The Doctor from Voyager.
The Cast of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Is Shaping Up Close Cadets have also been announced in recent months: Karim Diané,Zoë Steiner, Kerrice Brooks, Bella Shepard, and George Hawkins. At the panel today, fans got the chance to see a cast reaction video featuring the previously announced cadets when they were told they got the part.
Kurtzman says that they'll likely begin filming next month. Kurtzman also told us the first season of Starfleet Academy will be ten episodes long. Kurtzman says that with this new show, they hope to bring in both new viewers and honor longtime fans. The show will be targeted towards a younger audience, older than the target demographic for Star Trek: Prodigy, but younger than other existing live-action Star Trek shows.
Two other notable additions to the cast include Holly Hunter and Paul Giamatti. The two are at opposite ends of whatever conflict may be set up for the inaugural season: Hunter will play the chancellor of Starfleet Academy, and Giamatti will be the season's villain.Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Sci-FiActionAdventure Centers on students at Starfleet Academy.
