Article arrow_drop_down

One of the more curious projects in the current wave of Star Trek, Prodigy has been one of the quietest in terms of news. Now however, we have our first peek at the all new animated series, getting a tease of the upcoming story and the new ship to lead the adventures.

Developed by Nickelodeon, Prodigy is one of the key parts of Alex Kurtzman’s own five year mission. Reaching into new corners of Star Trek lore, and expanding how stories are told, Prodigy breaks away from the dramatic styles of Picard and Discovery to focus on a younger market. Created by Trollhunters leads Dan and Kevin Hageman, we finally got our first peek at whats to come…

Prodigy will tell the story of a group of teenage outcasts who stumble upon a derelict Starfleet vessel. Guided by an on board training hologram modelled on Captain Janeway, the group will have to find a way to work together as a team as they figure out how to run the USS Protostar and find a new future together.

The series will see Kate Mulgrew return as the Janeway training hologram and will also star William O. Campbell as Thadiun Okona; Rylee Alazraqui as Rok-Tahk; Brett Gray as Dal; Angus Imrie as Zero; Jason Mantzoukas as Jankom Pog; Ella Purnell as Gwyn; Dee Bradley Baker as Murf.

Prodigy will launch on PAramount Plus in the US before moving to Nickelodeon. UK broadcast information is unknown at this time.

UPDATE 11/08: Prodigy is expected to launch on Paramount Plus in the UK when the service expands to international markets.

For The Uniform: The Muted Tones of The Motion Picture

Starfleet's wardrobe always seems to change. Different producers and designers always bring something new to the table, whether it's a need to create a more militarised uniform, something nice and simple for a more real-world feel, or sometimes – just sometimes – space pyjamas. In the 1960s, colour television was all the rage and Star Trek was at the forefront of that huge leap in visual technology. It's outfits and set design were crafted to be bold and brash, resulting in the bright paintwork, scenes lit with vibrant pinks and purples and of course the now iconic division coloured uniforms. In both the planned launch of Phase II in 1978 and the earlier animated series in 1973, the iconic look of Starfleet was retained in all its bright and colourful glory. But when plans were scrapped and Paramount opted to […]

A Fistful of Star Trek Online’s Best Bits!

This week marks fifteen years since the launch of whats become Star Trek's most consistent and longest reigning video game, Star Trek Online. Developed following the relaunch of a new movie franchise, STO told the other side of the story.

Customising your player character, you begin at the Academy, get yourself a star ship and rank up as you balance exploration, politics and shooting a lot of things! Over the years the game has changed and developed with expansions, new additions, rotating Executive Producers - and now new owners! - using multiple guest appearances into the mix for story mission while allowing group events, developing annual traditions and generally letting us all play with cool […]

Across The Universe! Black Ops Missions & Lifetime Achievements!

The year begins with a New Trek bringing us to even strange new worlds while franchise - both old and new - celebrate upcoming awards ceremonies. Section 31 Released... After a long, long wait the potentially least anticipated project in the Star Trek Universe was released on January 25th as Section 31, starring Michelle Yeoh reprising her role as reformed (kinda) Emperor Georgiou displaced in time and recruited to rejoin Section 31 for a dangerous mission to protect the Federation in the most non Federation way possible. Initially developed as a full series exploring the nature of the organisation's questionable origins and motives, the project was placed in the hands of new writers to transform the concept into a made for streaming movie as a condensed action piece that limited the original intention and replaced it with something a little […]

Boldly Going Nowhere: Section 31 Quick Review

REVIEW SCORE   FLEET SCORE   Focused on the outliers of the Star Trek Universe, the idea of the Section 31 film was to go beyond Starfleet and present the universe from a different perspective and in a different way. An idea thats been done with some hit and miss success over the past ten years. Section 31's initial pitch and writing team was something that had the potential to be something we could enjoy and even with mild hesitation, we were eager to see where the once series would go now a new writer had condensed the vague idea into a one off experiment, a streaming based movie to add to the tapestry of different flavours Star Trek has offered in resent years. It was also an experiment in offering a first real glimpse at a batch of heroes […]

[Q2&A] Who Are The ADMB And What Do They Do?

In previous Q2&A posts we've went over our ranking structure and what it means in reality, as well as how to join the Captains Table and become part of Q2's valued leadership team. But every now and then, we have someone who's ambitions are a little higher and those Admirals bars seem very appealing to some. In the Star Trek Universe what Starfleet is and how it operations tends to deviate from script to script. Sometimes its a strict military structure, sometimes it's an idealistic job and sometimes it's a peace keeping armada where you can become captain on a whim. It works in the greater context as a futurist navy where you earn your way to the top, or without the up and out rules of most navies, stay where you are and work on where you best fit. […]
