The Star Trek universe has been pushing boundaries for nearly 60 years, introducing strange new worlds, earthly utopias, and wild alien species to science fiction.
And as Strange New Worlds enters its third season, the cast is fully aware how fan expectations sometimes bump up against the show’s strange, new canon.
Whether it’s the original Scotty, played by James Doohan in the original Star Trek, or Simon Pegg, who took over the role in J.J. Abrams’ 2009 reboot, everyone has a favorite.
Enterprise in Season 3, Strange New Worlds gets closer to the end of its five-year mission and the beginning of the original series.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 premieres on July 17 on Paramount+.
