Star Trek: Prodigy Joins the Star Trek Universe

By Miclpea

During the Star Trek Universe Virtual Panel on Comic-Con @Home, CBS and Nickelodeon revealed the title and logo of a new animated series in the Star Trek Universe-Star Trek: Prodigy

The series follows a ragtag group of lawless teens who discover a derelict Starfleet ship. With their discovery, the teens are launched on a search for adventure, meaning, and hopefully, salvation. The series is developed by Kevin and Dan Hageman (Trollhunters, Ninjago).

The series comes from CBS’ Eye Animation Productions, CBS Television Studios’ new animation arm; Secret Hideout; and Roddenberry Entertainment. Alex Kurtzman, Heather Kadin, Katie Krentz, Rod Roddenberry, and Trevor Roth will serve as executive producers alongside Kevin and Dan Hageman. Aaron Baiers will serve as a co-executive producer. 

The CG-animated series will debut exclusively on Nickelodeon in 2021 for a new generation of Star Trek fans.

I’m excited about this latest entry in the growing Star Trek universe and I hope you are too. If you want to continue this discussion, please join us at https://www.friendsofcc.com/
