Star Trek Discovery Season 5: Trailer

Along with the announcement of the launch in April, a new clip for “Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5 was also released. A new trailer was previously released at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con in July, giving us a little insight into the new “Star Trek: Discovery” episodes.

We examined the trailer in more detail and will tell you which 7 details you may have missed!

In the first official trailer for “Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5 we see some new characters: Starfleet Officer Rayner, played by Callum Keith Rennie, and the outlaws, L’ak and Moll, played by Elias Toufexis and Eve Harlow. Check it out here!

Star Trek Discovery Season 5: Cast

Of course returns Sonequa Martin Green as Michael Burnham. Also with Doug Jones as Saru as well Anthony Rapp We can definitely count on him as Paul Stamets. Mary Wiseman will return as Tilly in a guest role.

However, she is no longer there as the main role. We can probably see Tilly again in the “Discovery” spin-off “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy”. Here’s a list of who we’re likely to see again in “Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5:

• Wilson Cruz as Dr. Hugh Culber
• Oded Fehr as Admiral Vance
• Tara Rosling as T’Rina
• Emily Coutts as Detmer
• Oyin Oladejo as Owosekun
• Patrick Kwok Choon as Rhys
• Ronnie Rowe as Bryce
• Sara Mitich as Nilsson
• Blu del Barrio as Adira
• Ian Alexander as Gray
• Annabelle Wallis as Zora
• Chelah Horsdal as President Rillak
• David Cronenberg as Kovich

It’s unclear whether we’ll see David Ajala as Book again. He survived and is still with Michael, but the two have to go their separate ways. Book will probably only appear in guest roles.

Star Trek Discovery Season 5: Plot

Nothing is officially known about the plot yet. Following the events of Season 4, Discovery will continue to serve as the Federation’s flagship to inspire trust with other planets and systems. This is how the Federation should return to its former glory.

We could therefore expect more exploration of new galaxies. A new threat has not yet been revealed. The personal stories will be deepened again. So Michael and Book have to see how they can have a long-distance relationship. Will they be able to salvage their relationship after Book’s betrayal of trust?

How Saru’s love story with T’Rina will continue also remains to be seen. As a leading member of the Kelpian government as well as an important crew member of a starship and the president of Ni’Var, the two of them naturally risk letting their feelings influence any political decisions.

For Hugh Culber and Stamets, it’s important to find a little more time for each other and for themselves. The stress on board the Discovery takes its toll on them, as it does on all other crew members.

Star Trek Discovery Season 5: Production

Back in October 2020, Kurtzman announced that “Star Trek: Discovery” would run for around seven seasons. This plan has now been thrown out and “Star Trek: Discovery” will also end with season 5.

After “Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5: Will there be new stories from the 32nd century?

After the finale of “Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5, we can expect a short break due to the strike. It is still unclear when the next “Star Trek” releases can be expected. It is also not yet known whether the 32nd century will be highlighted by other films and series. The already announced series “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy” is probably a spin-off to “Star Trek: Discovery” and takes place at the same time.

Most likely, Mary Wiseman will star as Sylvia Tilly and we can expect guest appearances from Sonequa Martin-Green as Michael Burnham and Doug Jones as Saru. However, this is not official yet.

To bridge the waiting time, you can watch all the other films and series in the “Star Trek” universe. We’ll tell you the correct “Star Trek” order. We also list the start dates of all announced new “Star Trek” releases!
