And if the first snippets from the upcoming fifth and final season, revealed during today’s Star Trek panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2023, mean anything, the series will boldly exit with a bang.
The clip, an action sequence with little context to the backstory, follows Captain Michael Burnham as she is thrown from a tense confrontation in the halls of a wrecked starship onto the hull of a warp-jumping starship.
Season 5 of discovery Filming began last June, with expectations of an early 2023 premiere. However, in March of this year, Paramount both announced that it was the show’s final season and that the premiere would be pushed back to early 2024. Stars Sonequa Martin-Green, Doug Jones, Anthony Rapp and David Ajala are expected to return to crew the spacecraft discovery
Also, according to this new clip, David Cronenberg (yes, the real David Cronenberg) will reprise his recurring role as Federation expert Doctor Kovich.
