New trailer!

This morning CBS Studios debuted the first official trailer for the second season of the animated kids’ (of all ages) series Star Trek: Prodigy, less than two weeks ahead of the Monday, July 1 debut with all 20 episodes.

Check it out…

Prodigy was developed by Emmy winners Kevin and Dan Hageman along with Alex Kurtzman to be the first Star Trek series specifically aimed at younger audiences. The animated series originally debuted in the fall of 2021 on Paramount+ with the first season of 20 episodes split into two parts, wrapping up in December 2022. After being removed by Paramount+, the show was picked up by Netflix, which re-released the first season last Christmas. After the Paramount+ removal fans rallied behind a #SaveStarTrekProdigy campaign of the summer of 2023, including flying an airplane banner over the Hollywood offices of Netflix.

“We deeply appreciate our fans who have stood by us and our passionate crew who made this all possible. The work speaks for itself, but it’s the heart that will endure,” said co-showrunners Kevin and Dan Hageman about the Season 2 release.

New synopsis and poster!

The first season of Prodigy 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, with a little help from a hologram version of Kathryn Janeway (voiced by Voyager star Kate Mulgrew). Season 1 wrapped up with the young aliens arriving on Earth, becoming Starfleet trainees under the guidance of Vice Admiral Janeway (also voiced by Mulgrew).

Here is how CBS Studios is describing the story for the new season:

In Season 2, these six young outcasts who make up the Prodigy crew are assigned a new mission aboard the USS Voyager-A to rescue Captain Chakotay (voiced by Robert Beltran) and bring peace to Gwyn’s (voiced by Ella Purnell) home world. However, when their plan goes astray, it creates a time paradox that jeopardizes both their future and past.

The Prodigy voice cast includes Kate Mulgrew (Hologram Kathryn Janeway), Brett Gray (Dal), Ella Purnell (Gwyn), Rylee Alazraqui (Rok-Tahk), Angus Imrie (Zero), Jason Mantzoukas (Jankom Pog), Dee Bradley Baker (Murf), John Noble (The Diviner) and Jimmi Simpson (Drednok).
