AgenciesNetflix has set the date for official launch of “Star Trek: Prodigy”.
The first installment of the animated series will be dropped on the streaming service on December 25.
Last month, it was announced that the series would be moving to Netflix after it was canceled at Paramount+ despite being renewed for a second season, which is also likely to be aired by Los Gatos-headquartered streaming service.
“Prodigy” will be the first new “Star Trek” series to air domestically outside of the Paramount ecosystem since the revamped “Star Trek” TV universe launched with “Star Trek: Discovery” in 2017.
According to the official description of “Prodigy,” the show follows “a motley crew of young aliens who must figure out how to work together while navigating a greater galaxy, in search of a better future. These six young outcasts know nothing about the ship they have commandeered – a first in the history of the ‘Star Trek’ franchise – but over the course of their adventures together, they will each be introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents.”
The talented voice cast for the series includes Kate Mulgrew as Hologram Kathryn Janeway, Brett Gray as Dal, Ella Purnell as Gwyn, Rylee Alazraqui as Rok-Tahk, Angus Imrie as Zero, Jason Mantzoukas as Jankom Pog, Dee Bradley Baker as Murf, John Noble as The Diviner, and Jimmi Simpson as Drednok. Recurring voice cast members include Daveed Diggs as Commander Tysess, Jameela Jamil as Ensign Asencia, Jason Alexander as Doctor Noum, Robert Beltran as Captain Chakotay, and Billy Campbell as Thadiun Okona.
The series was developed by Kevin and Dan Hageman in collaboration with Alex Kurtzman and his team at Secret Hideout. The Hagemans also serve as showrunners and executive producers. Additional executive producers include Kurtzman, Heather Kadin, Aaron Baiers, Rod Roddenberry, and Trevor Roth. Ben Hibon directs, executive produces, and serves as the creative lead of the series, while Aaron Waltke and Patrick Krebs act as co-executive producers. The series is a collaboration between CBS Studios' Eye Animation Productions, Nickelodeon Animation, Secret Hideout, and Roddenberry Entertainment.
