New Star Trek TV Series with new ship and name announced!



Star Trek Discovery will premiere in January 2017.
Show will be created by Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman for CBS All Access

Ship will be designed around an early sketch for the 1970's series that never took place by the late great Ralph McQuarrie who also imagined the spaceships and planets of Star Wars under the direction of George Lucas.




This series will be a totally new affair with no affinity to the current rebooted movie franchise, and will see new characters and new situations based around the prime directives of the Star Trek lore.

Also unlike earlier series this venture will see the new ship make routine journeys beyond the Milky Way to neighboring galaxies and cosmic phenomenon.

The show "will be told like a novel," Fuller told the audience at Comic-Con 2016, describing a season-long story "chapter by chapter." He noted that the Star Trek franchise already had more than 700 episodes, and that Discovery would not be "episodic." 

Visual Effects will be mainly CGI with a few practical elements.
