TCA SUMMER PRESS TOUR
New ‘Star Trek’ Lead A Woman, Not A Captain
Following up a Comic-Con panel in July about Star Trek: Discovery, executive producer Bryan Fuller shared details about the 13-episode series’ setting, characters and innovations at a Television Critics Association meeting Wednesday.
The title and footage of the starship Discovery were teased at the end of a Comic-Con panel Saturday celebrating the series’ 50th anniversary with actors from every previous Star Trek series. Discovery executive producer Bryan Fuller said the show coming to the CBS All Access streaming video service will draw upon the optimistic tone established by Trek creator Gene Roddenberry.
