Trini February 24, 2021 Share February 24, 2021 First look picture of some of the characters, and other new info: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2021/02/24/paramountplus-is-the-home-of-the-star-trek-universe-359015/20210224cbs02/ Quote ViacomCBS today announced that the Star Trek Universe will head to Paramount +. The news was revealed during ViacomCBS' Investor Day event for its highly anticipated new streaming service. Included within the line-up is the upcoming all-new animated kids' series STAR TREK: PRODIGY which will now premiere on Paramount+ in the U.S. in 2021. Developed and produced by Nickelodeon and CBS Studios, PRODIGY is the first Star Trek series for the kids and family audience and will bow later on Nickelodeon, following its premiere run on Paramount+. A first-look image of the STAR TREK: PRODIGY bridge crew was also released today. In PRODIGY, six young outcasts know nothing about the ship they have commandeered - a first in the history of the Star Trek Franchise, but over the course of their adventures together, they will each be introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents.

Trini February 24, 2021 Share February 24, 2021 Bigger pic and some quotes here: https://deadline.com/2021/02/star-trek-prodigy-paramount-plus-debut-nickelodeon-alex-kurtzman-julie-mcnamara-1234700018/ Quote “This show is really for younger kids,’ Trekverse overlord Alex Kurtzman said to Deadline. Kurtzman is an executive producer on Prodigy, along with Heather Kadin, Katie Krentz, Rod Roddenberry and Trevor Roth and co-showrunners the Hageman brothers. Ben Hibon will direct and co-executive produce, with Aaron Baiers also serving as co-EP on Prodigy. “As somebody who grew up watching certain shows that spoke to me as a kid, but then also spoke to my parents so that my parents could watch it with me, I think that speaks very much to one of the things that Trek does right,” Kurtzman said. “Families watch it together. A parent can watch it with their children. And this show is going to be for our youngest audience so far, but I think given the scope and scale of it it’s not really going to look like anything you’ve seen before in that we have a really cinematic approach to what we’re doing.” Link to comment

I know she and Jeri Ryan weren't friends (but I thought they kept it professional) but I never heard anything about her and she he rest of the cast. I listen to the Delta Flyers podcast with Robbie Duncan McNeil(Tom Paris) and Garrett Wang (Harry Kim). They say that there is no hard feelings between any cast members, excepting the Kes actress who they don't talk much about, so I can't say. Kate has been on the podcast more than once as has most of the cast and there does not seem to be any bad blood at all. Jeri Ryan has not been on, but they are only in season 3 so we have not gotten to her seasons yet. From what I saw of the interview about this show, Mulgrew's character is a training hologram left behind in the Delta Quadrant so the rest of the cast would not necessarily be involved.

AnimeMania August 26, 2021 Share August 26, 2021 ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ Adds John Noble, Jimmi Simpson as Main Villains John Noble will voice the animated series’ lead villain, known as the Diviner, who rules the mining asteroid of Tars Lamora in a merciless quest to locate the U.S.S. Protostar, the mysteriously abandoned experimental Federation starship. One of the Protostar’s fledgling crew happens to be the Diviner’s child, Gwyn (Ella Purnell), which no doubt complicates matters for her new compatriots, especially since the Diviner sees Gwyn as the heir to his legacy. Jimmi Simpson will voice Drednok, the Diviner’s spider-like robotic minion whose only purpose in life is to enforce his master’s will with hard-hearted ruthlessness. 1 Link to comment

marinw October 28, 2021 Share October 28, 2021 I usually aviod CGI animation because I find it creepy, but I will give this a try after the success of Lower Decks. A Medusian chracter is an interesting idea, as it was famously pointed out that the Medisians are either too ugly or too beautiful to look at. Link to comment
