A New Discovery: CBS Up Front 2017 Preview

After a long wait, and a quick tease earlier today, we got our first real look at the latest chapter of Star Trek at todays CBS Up Front presentations. The latest insight into Discovery follows the original teaser released at last years Up Fronts, as well as the first production video earlier this year. But this time we have a solid - and stunning - look at what Discovery will be and our first real look behind the highly secretive production taking place in Toronto.

The Legacy of the Next Generation

Decades after the original crew launch their five year mission, 1987 introduced us to a new era of Star Trek as Captain Jean Luc Picard took centre stage of an all new Enterprise. The relaunch of the series was a bold move, replacing the lovable figures of the original crew with an all new cast, including an Android and a Klingon on the bridge! At the time it was a shocking change, but now for many of us, this is the Star Trek we grew up with.
