Overview

  • Season 3 premieres July 17 on Paramount+ with a two-episode launch followed by weekly releases through September 11.
  • The third season faced a two-year delay due to the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes and Paramount+ layoffs, a gap the creative team publicly apologized for.
  • Scottish actor Martin Quinn joins as Engineer Montgomery Scott, bringing an authentic Scottish accent to the franchise’s iconic character.
  • Season 4 is already filming, and showrunners are crafting its standalone stories while laying groundwork for the series’ conclusion.
  • While key figures like Kirk, Spock and Uhura will appear, showrunners confirm that some Original Series crew members will not join before the show ends.
