The return of Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard was the first official series of the Trekverse expansion, and it looks like another Starfleet captain could be talking the helm in her own show .
Crazy Rich Asians star Michelle Yeoh is in talks to reprise her Star Trek Discovery role of Captain Emperor Georgiou for a stand-alone CBS All Access series, I’ve learned.
There is a natural momentum here as Yeoh’s once Captain Philippa Georgiou is already set to return to Discovery in Season 2 after leaping off into the final frontier at the end of Season 1. Still in the early planning stages, the spinoff looks likely to focus on a continuation of her Discovery Season 2 adventures in Starfleet’s Section 31 division. The semi-secret and autonomous organization has been a part of Trek lore since it was first introduced in the 1990s on the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine series.

Would you welcome yet another Star Trek spinoff series? Watch this space for developments…
…..not ‘on board’ with the limited, PAID access – and if CBS does the SAME thing with Patrick Stewart’s project, that’s gonna alienate even MORE longtime, POORER fans…..
So glad to see Jean-Luc Picard back at the helm! Only thing is now that it’s on CBS All Access, I have not been able to watch the Star Trek Discovery show which is a bummer, since I’m a true Trekkie that loves everything Star Trek, but can’t afford to pay to watch as I’m on Disability and need my money for food and medicines. Wish they would authorize Netflix to pick up the first season of Discovery for now, as that is the only streaming device my husband will pay for.
Star Trek Discovery Season 1 was released yesterday on Blu-Ray and Best Buy and Amazon have it in stock.
Not sure if this will help, but I saw that Star Trek Discovery Season 1 was released on Blu-Ray yesterday at Best Buy and at Amazon.
