Overview
- Nine scripted episodes are releasing weekly on Mondays through November 3, following the September 8 Star Trek Day debut.
- The series fills the Ceti Alpha V gap between Space Seed and The Wrath of Khan, based on a story from Nicholas Meyer and written by Kirsten Beyer and David Mack, with direction by Fred Greenhalgh.
- Naveen Andrews leads the cast as Khan, joined by Wrenn Schmidt as Marla McGivers, Sonya Cassidy as Dr. Rosalind Lear, and franchise veterans George Takei and Tim Russ.
- The premiere establishes a 2296 setup aboard Captain Sulu’s USS Excelsior as Dr. Lear seeks Marla McGivers’ audio logs, framing Khan’s earlier years in exile without contradicting established canon.
- Early reviews praise Andrews’ performance and the production’s cinematic score and sound design, with music by brothers Marcus and Sam Bagala; episodes are available on major podcast platforms and YouTube.
