''Star Trek: Discovery'' is an American television series created by Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman for the streaming service CBS All Access (later rebranded as Paramount+). Premiering in 2017, it is the seventh ''Star Trek'' series and was the first since ''Star Trek: Enterprise'' concluded in 2005. It follows the crew of the starship ''Discovery'', beginning a decade before ''Star Trek: The Original Series'' in the 23rd century. At the end of the Star Trek: Discovery (season 2), second season, ''Discovery'' travels to the 32nd century, which is the setting for subsequent seasons.
Sonequa Martin-Green stars as Michael Burnham, a science specialist on ''Discovery'' who eventually becomes captain. Doug Jones (actor), Doug Jones, Shazad Latif, Anthony Rapp, Mary Wiseman (actress), Mary Wiseman, Jason Isaacs, Wilson Cruz, Anson Mount, David Ajala, Rachael Ancheril, Blu del Barrio, and Tig Notaro also star. The series was announced in November 2015, with Fuller set as showrunner. He left due to creative differences with CBS and was replaced by Gretchen J. Berg and Aaron Harberts, with producing support from Akiva Goldsman for the Star Trek: Discovery (season 1), first season. Berg and Harberts were fired by CBS during production on the second, and Kurtzman took over as showrunner. He was joined by Michelle Paradise beginning with the Star Trek: Discovery (season 3), third season.
''Star Trek: Discovery'' is produced by CBS Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment. It is filmed at Pinewood Toronto Studios in Toronto, Canada, as well as on location around the world. Designs from the ''Star Trek'' franchise were reinvented for the series to take advantage of modern techniques and visual effects. It premiered on September 24, 2017, on CBS and CBS All Access. The rest of the 15-episode first season was streamed weekly on All Access, ending in February 2018. The 14-episode second season was released on All Access from January to April 2019, and the 13-episode third season ran from October 2020 to January 2021. The 13-episode Star Trek: Discovery (season 4), fourth season was released on Paramount+ from November 2021 to March 2022. A 10-episode Star Trek: Discovery (season 5), fifth season was ordered in January 2022 and is expected to be released in 2023.
The series' release led to record subscriptions for CBS All Access, and it became the most viewed original series on both All Access and Paramount+. It has received positive reviews from critics, who have highlighted Martin-Green's performance and the time-jump to the 32nd century, as well as numerous accolades, including Primetime Emmy Awards for its prosthetic makeup and visual effects. The series began an expansion of the ''Star Trek'' franchise, leading to multiple new series including the companion shorts series ''Star Trek: Short Treks'' and the spin-off ''Star Trek: Strange New Worlds''. Various tie-in media and two official aftershows have also been produced based on the series.
A science specialist on the USS ''Discovery'' who is promoted to captain at the end of the third season. Burnham is a human who was raised following Vulcan (Star Trek), Vulcan culture and traditions by Sarek, making her the adopted sister of well-known ''Star Trek'' character Spock; the reason Spock does not mention Burnham in other ''Star Trek'' media is explained in the second season. A non-captain protagonist was chosen to give the series a different perspective from previous ''Star Trek'' series, but the writers always knew that she would become captain eventually. Despite her logic-based Vulcan upbringing, Burnham has a rebellious side that she retains even as she becomes more vulnerable throughout the series. Co-creator Bryan Fuller chose to give the character a traditionally male name as he had also done with the female leads on three of his previous series. * Doug Jones (actor), Doug Jones as Saru:
First officer of the USS ''Discovery'' who becomes captain for the third season. Saru is the first Kelpien to enter Starfleet. A new species created for ''Discovery'', Kelpiens were hunted as prey on their home planet and thus evolved the ability to sense the coming of danger. Prosthetics are used to portray Saru, and initially took more than three hours to apply to Jones each day of filming. Jones based Saru's walk on that of a supermodel, out of necessity due to the boots he wore to portray the character's hooved feet. The producers compared Saru to the characters Spock and Data (Star Trek), Data from previous ''Star Trek'' series. * Shazad Latif as Voq / Ash Tyler (Seasons 1–2):
Voq, an albino Klingon, undergoes extensive surgery to pose as the human Ash Tyler. He becomes chief of security for ''Discovery'', and starts a relationship with Burnham. Voq's accent is Arabic-inspired, and Latif tried to maintain a "Pharyngealization, pharyngealness" to Tyler's American accent. For the second season, Latif felt he was playing a third character that melded Voq and Tyler in a similar way to Hulk, Bruce Banner and the Hulk in Marvel Comics. * Anthony Rapp as Paul Stamets (Star Trek), Paul Stamets:
Chief engineer aboard ''Discovery'' and a science officer specializing in astromycology (the study of fungi in space) who developed ''Discovery''s experimental organic propulsion system (the "Spore Drive"). The character is inspired by a real-life mycology, mycologist of Paul Stamets, the same name. He is the first openly gay character in a ''Star Trek'' series. Rapp acknowledged that Hikaru Sulu is portrayed as gay in the film ''Star Trek Beyond'' (2016), calling that a "nice nod", but said the series would actually explore Stamets and his partner "in conversation, in our living quarters; you get to see our relationship over time, treated as any other relationship would be treated". * Mary Wiseman (actress), Mary Wiseman as Sylvia Tilly:
An ensign aboard ''Discovery'' who works under Stamets and is initially Burnham's roommate. The character was intended to represent people at the bottom of the Starfleet hierarchy, and season one co-showrunner Aaron Harberts said she was the "soul" of the series. She is temporarily promoted to first officer by Saru in the third season, and chooses to leave the ship in the fourth to become a teacher at Starfleet Academy. * Jason Isaacs as Gabriel Lorca (Season 1):
Captain of the ''Discovery'' in the first season who was described as a "brilliant military tactician". Isaacs said the character was "probably more f-ked up than any of" the previously seen ''Star Trek'' captains. He plays the character with a slight Southern American English, southern U.S. accent, and initially ad-libbed the catchphrase "git'r done" before the writers pointed out that it was already widely used and trademarked by Larry the Cable Guy. * Wilson Cruz as Hugh Culber:
Medical officer aboard ''Discovery'' and Stamets' husband. Cruz said portraying the first openly gay couple in ''Star Trek'' was "a long time coming" and praised the subtle way that the series explored their relationship. The character is killed in the first season, but returns from the dead in the second and subsequently goes through post-traumatic growth. He becomes an advocate for the mental health of the crew in the third season. * Anson Mount as Christopher Pike (Star Trek), Christopher Pike (Season 2):
Captain of the ''Enterprise'' who takes temporary command of the ''Discovery'' in the second season. Mount described Pike as "very by-the-book" and a good person, while executive producers Heather Kadin and Alex Kurtzman said he was the opposite of Lorca with "enough confidence and authority to apologize when he is wrong". Mount did not try to imitate original Pike actor Jeffrey Hunter's performance from ''The Original Series''. * David Ajala as Cleveland "Book" Booker (Season 3–):
The first person that Burnham meets in the 32nd century, Book helps introduce the third season's new future setting. He is a "courier", an independent trader, and becomes a love interest for Burnham that the writers hoped would bring out new sides to her character in contrast to her tumultuous relationship with Ash Tyler in the previous seasons. The producers took inspiration from ''Star Wars'' character Han Solo for Book, especially for his costumes. The character has a pet cat named Grudge who is portrayed by two Maine Coons, Leeu and Durban. They are long and weigh . * Rachael Ancheril as Nhan:
A former ''Enterprise'' crewmember who becomes chief of security for ''Discovery'' in the second season. Nhan leaves the ship in the third season during the 32nd century. * Blu del Barrio as Adira Tal (Season 3–):
A human bonded with a Trill (Star Trek), Trill symbiont. Adira is the first non-binary character in a ''Star Trek'' series, and the writers worked with del Barrio and LGBTQ media monitoring organization GLAAD when developing the character due to there being no non-binary writers working on the series. Adira and their transgender boyfriend Gray (portrayed by Ian Alexander (actor), Ian Alexander) form a "family unit" with Stamets and Culber in the third and fourth seasons. * Tig Notaro as Jett Reno (Season 2–):
An engineer who joins ''Discovery'' in the second season. Notaro was a long-time friend of Kurtzman's when he asked her to join the series as comedic relief. The character was originally called Denise Reno, but she was able to change the name and chose "Jett" for singer Joan Jett. To accommodate Notaro's busy schedule of stand-up comedy and other projects, she films scenes from different episodes at the same time.
Doug Jones (actor), Doug Jones and Anthony Rapp were revealed to have been cast in November 2016, respectively as science officers Saru and Stamets. Saru is a Kelpien, an alien race created for the series, while Stamets is the first ''Star Trek'' character to be conceived and announced as gay. Sonequa Martin-Green was cast in the lead role in December, when Shazad Latif was cast as the Klingon Kol. In March 2017, Jason Isaacs was cast as Captain Lorca of the USS ''Discovery'', and Mary Wiseman (actress), Mary Wiseman joined as Tilly, a cadet. In April, Martin-Green's casting was officially confirmed and her character's name was revealed to be Michael Burnham. At the end of that month, Latif was recast to the role of Starfleet Lieutenant Tyler. The series reveals that Tyler is the undercover persona of the Klingon Voq, who is initially credited as being portrayed by the invented actor Javid Iqbal to hide the fact that Latif portrays both Voq and Tyler.
Rapp revealed in July 2017 that Wilson Cruz, whom Rapp had previously worked with on the musical ''Rent (musical), Rent'', would portray Stamets' love interest Hugh Culber. The character is killed off during the first season, which was criticized by some as following the "bury your gays" trope, but the executive producers immediately released a statement with Cruz and LGBTQ media monitoring organization GLAAD saying the relationship between Culber and Stamets would continue to be explored. Cruz was subsequently promoted from his recurring guest role to the series' main cast for the second season, in which Culber is brought back to life. After the first season concluded with the ''Discovery'' receiving a distress call from the USS ''Enterprise'', specifically from Captain Christopher Pike (Star Trek), Christopher Pike, Harberts expressed interest in exploring that character; Anson Mount was cast in the role in April 2018, and stars for the second season.
Casting had begun by June 2019 for the new role of Adira, a non-binary character described as "incredibly intelligent and self-confident" with the potential to become a recurring guest throughout the third season. The next month, David Ajala joined the cast as new series regular Cleveland "Book" Booker for the third season. Rachael Ancheril is also credited as starring for her appearances in the season, reprising her recurring guest role as Nhan from the second season. She is written out of the series in the third season's fifth episode. In September 2020, non-binary newcomer Blu del Barrio was revealed to be portraying Adira, the first explicitly non-binary character within the ''Star Trek'' franchise. They reprised their role for the fourth season, and del Barrio was promoted to the series' main cast along with recurring guest star Tig Notaro as Jett Reno.

Premise
The series begins around ten years before the events of ''Star Trek: The Original Series'', when Commander Michael Burnham's actions start a war between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire. She is court-martialed, demoted, and reassigned to the USS ''Discovery'', which has a unique means of propulsion called the "Spore Drive". After an adventure in the Mirror Universe, ''Discovery'' helps end the Klingon war. In the second season they investigate seven mysterious signals and a strange figure known as the "Red Angel", and fight off a rogue artificial intelligence. This conflict ends with the ''Discovery'' traveling to the 32nd century, more than 900 years into their future. The USS ''Discovery'' finds the Federation fragmented in the future, and investigates the cause of a cataclysmic event known as the "Burn" in the third season. Burnham is promoted to captain of ''Discovery'' at the end of the season, and in the fourth season the crew helps rebuild the Federation while facing a space anomaly created by unknown aliens that causes destruction across the galaxy. In the fifth season, the ''Discovery'' goes on a galactic adventure to find a mysterious ancient power that other dangerous groups are also searching for.Episodes

Development
Announcement
On November 2, 2015, CBS announced that a new ''Star Trek'' television series would premiere in January 2017, "on the heels" of the 50th anniversary of ''Star Trek: The Original Series'' in 2016. This was the first ''Star Trek'' series since ''Star Trek: Enterprise'' concluded in 2005, and the first series to be developed specifically for the CBS All Access streaming service. Alex Kurtzman, co-writer of the films ''Star Trek (film), Star Trek'' (2009) and ''Star Trek Into Darkness'' (2013), and Heather Kadin were set as executive producers. The January 2017 date was the earliest that CBS could release a new ''Star Trek'' series after an agreement the company made when it split from Viacom (2005–present), Viacom in 2005. Showtime (TV network), Showtime, Netflix, and Amazon Video all offered "a lot of money" for the rights to stream the series, but after heavily investing in the new All Access service CBS believed that a returning ''Star Trek'' could be "the franchise that really puts All Access on the map". In January 2016, CBS president Glenn Geller said the network would broadcast the first episode but was not creatively involved in the series, saying, "It really is for All Access."Bryan Fuller
After beginning his career writing for the series ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'' and ''Star Trek: Voyager'', Bryan Fuller was announced as the new series' showrunner and co-creator alongside Kurtzman in February 2016. Nicholas Meyer, writer and director of ''Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan'' (1982) and ''Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country'' (1991), also joined the series as a consulting producer. In March, Rod Roddenberry (the son of ''Star Trek'' creator Gene Roddenberry) and Trevor Roth of Roddenberry Entertainment also joined the series as executive producers. Fuller said working with people previously involved with ''Star Trek'' was "really about making sure that we maintain authenticity", and said Meyer—who is widely considered to have made the best ''Star Trek'' film in ''The Wrath of Khan''—brought "a clarity and a cleanliness to the storytelling". Fuller had publicly called for ''Star Trek'' to return to television for years, particularly because of its impact on minority groups, as he explained, "I couldn't stop thinking about how many black people were inspired by seeing Nichelle Nichols on the bridge of a ship. I couldn't stop thinking about how many Asian people were inspired by seeing George Takei and feeling that gave them hope for their place in the future. I wanted to be part of that representation for a new era." When Fuller first met with CBS about the series, the company did not have a plan for what it would be. He proposed an anthology series, with each season being a standalone, serialized story set in a different era. This would begin with a prequel to ''The Original Series'', followed by stories set during ''The Original Series'', during ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'', and then "beyond to a time in ''Trek'' that's never been seen before". Fuller compared this to what ''American Horror Story'' did for horror, and described the proposal as a platform for "a universe of ''Trek'' shows". CBS instead suggested he create a single serialized series to see how that performed. Fuller began further developing the concept of a prequel to ''The Original Series''. He announced in June 2016 that the first season would consist of 13 episodes, though he would prefer to produce 10 episodes a season moving forward. A month later, Fuller announced the series' title, ''Star Trek: Discovery'', and revealed that it would be set in the "Prime Timeline" which includes the previous ''Star Trek'' series but not the modern List of Star Trek films#Reboot (Kelvin Timeline) films, reboot films such as ''Star Trek'', ''Into Darkness'', and ''Star Trek Beyond'' (2016). This was to keep the concurrent series and films separate, so "we don't have to track anything [happening in the films] and they don't have to track what we're doing". Also in July, CBS Studios International licensed the series to Netflix for release outside the United States and Canada, a "blockbuster" deal that paid for the series' entire budget (around US$6–7 million per episode at that time). During pre-production on the series, Fuller and CBS had disagreements on its direction. The production began to overrun its per-episode budget and was falling behind schedule due to Fuller supervising all aspects of the series while also showrunning another new series, ''American Gods (TV series), American Gods''. This caused frustration among CBS executives who felt Fuller should be focused on having ''Discovery'' ready for release in January 2017. By August 2016, Fuller had hired Gretchen J. Berg and Aaron Harberts, whom he worked with on ''Pushing Daisies'', to serve as co-showrunners with him. A month later, he and Kurtzman asked CBS to delay the series' release so they could meet the high expectations for it, and the studio pushed the premiere back to May 2017. At the end of October, CBS asked Fuller to step down as showrunner, and announced a restructuring of the production: Berg and Harberts were made sole showrunners, working from a broad story arc and overall mythology established by Fuller; Kurtzman and Fuller would continue as executive producers, but with Fuller moving his attention fully to ''American Gods''; and Akiva Goldsman would join as a supporting producer similar to the role he held on ''Fringe (TV series), Fringe'' alongside Kurtzman. CBS said they were still happy with Fuller's creative direction for the series, but some elements that came from him, including designs and "more heavily allegorical and complex story" points, were soon dropped. Fuller later confirmed that he was no longer involved with the series.Gretchen J. Berg and Aaron Harberts
With production set to begin in January 2017, "careful deliberation" was going into the series' production value and effects. Ted Sullivan (filmmaker), Ted Sullivan joined as supervising writing producer, and CBS Interactive president Marc DeBevoise revealed that the episode order had been expanded to 15 episodes. In June, CBS announced a new premiere date of September 24, 2017, and Kurtzman said he had discussed future seasons with Fuller before the latter's departure. Kurtzman promised that the series' "set-up, character, big ideas, [and] the big movement of the season" were all true to Fuller's original plans. In August, Goldsman said future seasons would have a "hybridized [anthology] approach" with each season having its own story arc and a mixture of new and familiar characters. Kurtzman added that the success of ''Discovery'' could lead to other new ''Star Trek'' series. By the end of August 2017, Berg and Harberts had developed a road map for a second season and the beginnings of one for a third. It was also revealed that an average episode of the first season had cost US$8–8.5 million, making it one of the most expensive television series ever made. This exceeded the original Netflix deal, but CBS still considered the series paid for due to the number of new CBS All Access subscribers that it was expected to draw. After the series premiere, Kurtzman said the producers wanted to avoid announcing release dates for future seasons due to the external pressure caused by delaying the first season's premiere after it was announced. Despite this, he hoped a second season would be available in early 2019. The second season was officially ordered in October 2017, and consists of 13 episodes. Goldsman did not return for the season after clashing with the series' writing staff, while Meyer was not asked to return for the second season. In June 2018, when production on the second season was underway, CBS fired Berg and Harberts. This was due to the first episode of the season going significantly over budget, as well as alleged abusive behavior by the pair directed at the other writers. Kurtzman was made showrunner and was set to "regroup" the writers room.Alex Kurtzman and Michelle Paradise
After Kurtzman took over, the second season was confirmed to be on track for a January 2019 premiere, though there ultimately was enough of a delay in production that CBS extended the season's episode count to 14 as a way to amortize the cost of the delays. Shortly after the season premiere, in February, the series was renewed for a third season with writer Michelle Paradise promoted to co-showrunner alongside Kurtzman. In October 2019, Kurtzman said the third season would consist of 13 episodes. Active development on a fourth season had begun by January 2020, and it was officially announced in October. Also in October, Kurtzman was asked how long he intended for ''Discovery'' to continue, especially with other streaming series being cancelled during the COVID-19 pandemic, and said there were "years and years left on ''Discovery''". He also noted the precedent of several previous ''Star Trek'' series running for seven seasons each. A 10-episode fifth season was ordered in January 2022, which is expected to be released in 2023.Writing
The series' writers room is based at Kurtzman's Secret Hideout offices in Santa Monica. The titular ship was named after ''Discovery One'' from ''2001: A Space Odyssey (film), 2001: A Space Odyssey'', NASA's Space Shuttle Discovery, Space Shuttle ''Discovery'', and "the sense of discovery... what [that] means to ''Star Trek'' audiences who have been promised a future by Gene Roddenberry where we come together as a planet and seek new worlds and new alien races to explore and understand". Fuller wanted to differentiate ''Discovery'' from previous ''Star Trek'' series by taking advantage of the streaming format of All Access and telling a single serialized story across the entire first season, inspired by the general change in television to tell those kinds of stories rather than the "new destination-based adventure each week" format mostly used in previous ''Star Trek'' series. Fuller had been one of several writers during the 1990s pushing for ''Deep Space Nine'' and ''Voyager'' to move towards this style. The producers wanted to build towards Roddenberry's ''Star Trek'' ideals and show that "you can't simply be accepting and tolerant without working for it", and chose to ignore Roddenberry's longstanding rule that Starfleet crew members not have significant conflict with one another. Fuller saw the series as a bridge between ''Star Trek: Enterprise'' and ''The Original Series''—which are set around 150 years apart—but set much closer to the latter to allow ''Discovery'' to use the latter's iconic designs and costumes; the series ultimately moved away from those designs after Fuller's departure. The first season tells the story of the Federation-Klingon cold war that had been mentioned in ''Star Trek'' before but not depicted on screen. The season finishes with the end of the war, which allowed the writers to move beyond Fuller's established storyline. The second season has a more episodic structure than the first, though it still tells a single serialized story, and it introduces more elements from ''The Original Series'' including the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701), USS ''Enterprise'' and its crew. A goal of the showrunners for the season was to "cement ''Discovery'' firmly in the timeline" by reconciling some of the apparent continuity errors from the first season, such as why ''Discovery'' characters and more advanced technology are not mentioned in ''The Original Series'' or other previous ''Star Trek'' media. They achieved this by having ''Discovery'' and its crew travel over 900 years into the future at the end of the season which Kurtzman compared to the new timeline created for the film ''Star Trek'' to avoid established continuity. Kurtzman felt the jump to the future had opened up new variables and storytelling opportunities that were preventing the series from feeling stale and confirmed that the series would remain in the 32nd century for the rest of its run. Discussing what makes ''Discovery'' unique among ''Star Trek'' series, Paradise said it was the mixture of serialized storytelling and a focus on action, adventure, and visual effects. She noted that ''Discovery'' could feel separate from the rest of the franchise following the time jump to the future but explained that the writers were always looking for ways to connect the series back to past ''Star Trek'' media to prevent this. Beginning with the third season, astrophysicist Erin Macdonald joined the series and wider ''Star Trek'' franchise as a science advisor. Macdonald said each series was on a "spectrum of science to fiction" and ''Discovery'' was "way more on the science side", so to ensure scientific accuracy Macdonald became involved in all aspects of the series from developing plots with the writers room to reviewing that graphics and visual effects were correct in post-production.Casting
By June 2016, Fuller had met with several actors and said the series would "carry on what ''Star Trek'' does best" by hiring a progressive, diverse cast, with Kadin confirming that the series would feature minority, female, and LGBTQ characters. In August, Fuller said the series would star a lieutenant commander, to be played by a non-white actress, rather than a captain like previous ''Star Trek'' series. He also said ''Discovery'' would include more alien characters than other ''Star Trek'' series, and would feature at least one openly gay character. Fuller, who is gay himself, had been determined to see this happen since receiving hate mail while working on ''Voyager'' when a character on that show was rumored to be coming out as gay. Fuller discussed the series' casting with Mae Jemison, the first black woman in space who made a cameo appearance in an episode of ''The Next Generation''. He anticipated casting announcements in October, but none had been made by the end of that month. The majority of the series main characters were believed to have been cast by then, but no actress had been cast for the series' lead role. This was a source of "internal stress" at CBS. Several African American and Latina actresses were being looked at for the role, with CBS preferring a "fresh face" over an established star. The cast was believed to include a female admiral, a male Klingon captain, a male admiral, a male adviser, and a British male doctor, with one of those male leads played by an openly gay actor.
Doug Jones (actor), Doug Jones and Anthony Rapp were revealed to have been cast in November 2016, respectively as science officers Saru and Stamets. Saru is a Kelpien, an alien race created for the series, while Stamets is the first ''Star Trek'' character to be conceived and announced as gay. Sonequa Martin-Green was cast in the lead role in December, when Shazad Latif was cast as the Klingon Kol. In March 2017, Jason Isaacs was cast as Captain Lorca of the USS ''Discovery'', and Mary Wiseman (actress), Mary Wiseman joined as Tilly, a cadet. In April, Martin-Green's casting was officially confirmed and her character's name was revealed to be Michael Burnham. At the end of that month, Latif was recast to the role of Starfleet Lieutenant Tyler. The series reveals that Tyler is the undercover persona of the Klingon Voq, who is initially credited as being portrayed by the invented actor Javid Iqbal to hide the fact that Latif portrays both Voq and Tyler.
Rapp revealed in July 2017 that Wilson Cruz, whom Rapp had previously worked with on the musical ''Rent (musical), Rent'', would portray Stamets' love interest Hugh Culber. The character is killed off during the first season, which was criticized by some as following the "bury your gays" trope, but the executive producers immediately released a statement with Cruz and LGBTQ media monitoring organization GLAAD saying the relationship between Culber and Stamets would continue to be explored. Cruz was subsequently promoted from his recurring guest role to the series' main cast for the second season, in which Culber is brought back to life. After the first season concluded with the ''Discovery'' receiving a distress call from the USS ''Enterprise'', specifically from Captain Christopher Pike (Star Trek), Christopher Pike, Harberts expressed interest in exploring that character; Anson Mount was cast in the role in April 2018, and stars for the second season.
Casting had begun by June 2019 for the new role of Adira, a non-binary character described as "incredibly intelligent and self-confident" with the potential to become a recurring guest throughout the third season. The next month, David Ajala joined the cast as new series regular Cleveland "Book" Booker for the third season. Rachael Ancheril is also credited as starring for her appearances in the season, reprising her recurring guest role as Nhan from the second season. She is written out of the series in the third season's fifth episode. In September 2020, non-binary newcomer Blu del Barrio was revealed to be portraying Adira, the first explicitly non-binary character within the ''Star Trek'' franchise. They reprised their role for the fourth season, and del Barrio was promoted to the series' main cast along with recurring guest star Tig Notaro as Jett Reno.
Design
Fuller wanted to take advantage of modern effects, production design, and makeup to establish a new look for the series and franchise that previous ''Star Trek'' media was unable to achieve. Mark Worthington and Todd Cherniawsky served as initial production designers for the series, and Suttirat Anne Larlarb was hired as costume designer. Glenn Hetrick and Neville Page of Alchemy Studios provided prosthetics and armor, with Page having previously designed for the rebooted ''Star Trek'' films. Mario Moreira served as prop master for the series, with seven art directors, over nine illustrators, more than thirty-five set designers, and over four hundred and fifty painters, carpenters, sculptors, model makers, welders, set dressers, and prop builders all hired for the first season. The designers consulted with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for scientific accuracy. Tamara Deverell took over as production designer during production on the first season, but left after the second. She was replaced by Phillip Barker (film director), Phillip Barker, who was able to approach the third season as a fresh start due to the new time period. Barker helped develop the new 32nd century technology as part of his design process. Doug McCullough took over as production designer for the fourth season. Fuller had wanted the series' uniforms to reflect the primary colors of ''The Original Series'', but this was discarded after his departure, when Larlarb also left the series. Gersha Phillips took over as costume designer. Fabric for the series' Starfleet uniforms was custom-dyed in Switzerland, and was a navy blue specifically mixed for the production. Gold or silver embellishments denoted divisions, while medical officers wear a "hospital white" variant of the uniform. The captain's uniform is the standard navy blue but with additional gold piping on the shoulders. Phillips attempted to create costumes with no seams using "No Sew" bonding techniques such as glue and tape, but the producers rejected this because they wanted to see more details in the costumes. Starfleet insignia badges were molded from silicon bronze, and then polished and plated by a jeweler to create custom colors for the series: gold for command, silver for sciences and medical, and copper for operations. Phillips was able to revisit the colorful uniforms from ''The Original Series'' with the introduction of the USS ''Enterprise'' in the second season, applying the colors of those original costumes to the design of ''Discovery'' uniforms. She was also able to revisit her "No Sew" approach for the future Starfleet uniforms in the third season. These are mostly gray, with divisions represented by a colored stripe, but once the crew of ''Discovery'' started wearing these costumes the producers realised that they clashed with the ''Discovery''s existing gray hallway sets. Phillips designed new uniforms for the fourth season that use the same primary colors as ''The Next Generation'', with red for command, gold for operations, and blue for science. Medical officers still wear white uniforms. Veteran ''Star Trek'' designer John Eaves designed starships for the series with Scott Schneider, and based the USS ''Discovery'' on an unused Ralph McQuarrie design for the ''Enterprise'' from the unproduced film ''Star Trek: Planet of the Titans''. Fuller compared McQuarrie's design to 1970s Lamborghinis and cars from the ''James Bond'' franchise. Sets for the ''Discovery''s interiors were described as a "tangle of corridors and rooms", and were designed to look like they could believably fit inside the ship. The graphics used for the Starfleet computer systems were designed to be believably more advanced than modern technology, but to also honor the look and feel of the designs used in previous series. These were updated for the third season to reflect the more advanced future technology, when programmable matter was integrated into the ''Discovery'' design. The opening title sequence was created by Prologue (creative agency), Prologue using 2D motion graphics. The sequence depicts elements from throughout the history of ''Star Trek''—such as phasers, communicators, and the Vulcan salute—and deconstructs them. Prologue creative director Ana Criado said the producers wanted the sequence to be unlike any previous ''Star Trek'' titles sequences. A blueprint theme was decided to acknowledge that the series is a prequel, "literally deconstructing ''Trek'' iconography". The sequence was originally in black-and-white, but Criado said this was too "cold" and was replaced with a Renaissance-inspired sepia look "to make it look like we are designing everything from scratch". The sequence was updated for each season. The third season introduces a new logo for the series to reflect its move to the far future and move away from the Klingon-inspired initial logo.Filming
''Star Trek: Discovery'' is filmed at Pinewood Toronto Studios, taking advantage of multiple soundstages at the studio including the largest one in North America. Filming for the series also takes place on location around Ontario, Canada, including at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto to portray the Vulcan Science Academy, the Hilton Falls Conservation Area, Hilton Falls and Kelso Conservation Area, Kelso Conservation Areas, the Scarborough Bluffs, the Stelco steel plant in Hamilton, Ontario, Hamilton, and the disused Kingston Penitentiary. The series spent more than () in Ontario, and created more than 4,000 jobs for local crew, in just its first two seasons. Location filming for the series also took place outside of North America, with some filming in Jordan for the series premiere, and in Iceland for the first two episodes of the third season. Kurtzman felt the visual style of the series had to "justify being on a premium cable service", and the producers worked closely with first episode director David Semel to make the series look as cinematic as possible. They took inspiration from the wide scope of ''Star Trek: The Motion Picture'' (1979), including using a Aspect ratio (image), 2:1 aspect ratio, as well as from the modern ''Star Trek'' films directed by J. J. Abrams. The cinematographers wanted to emphasize on-set lighting sources to create a more realistic look and distance the series from the "stage" feel of ''The Original Series''. The lighting on set could be controlled, including changing their color for when the ship goes into alert mode. Harberts said that the cinematographers wanted the series to have a "Rembrandt texture". For the second season, Kurtzman chose to use anamorphic lenses with a Anamorphic format, 2.39:1 aspect ratio to "immediately [convey] a sense of scope and scale". He hoped that if the series was projected in a theater it would appear indistinguishable from a feature film. Frequent ''Star Trek'' director Jonathan Frakes said the series' producing director, Olatunde Osunsanmi, encouraged all of the directors to "express ourselves visually in as exciting a way as possible", with Frakes describing the series' directing style as "shoot to thrill". Paramount+ constructed a video wall to allow for virtual production on the fourth season as well as the spin-off series ''Star Trek: Strange New Worlds'', utilizing technology similar to the StageCraft system that was developed for the Disney+ series ''The Mandalorian''. The new virtual set was built in Toronto by visual effects company Pixomondo, and features a 270-degree, by horseshoe-shaped LED volume with additional LED panels in the ceiling to aid with lighting. The technology uses the game engine software Unreal Engine to display computer-generated backgrounds on the LED screens in real-time during filming. Visual effects supervisor Jason Zimmerman noted that this was especially useful for creating the planets that are visited in the series since location shooting was limited on the fourth season by the COVID-19 pandemic.Visual effects
Visual effects producers were hired to begin work on the series during the initial writing period, with Fuller explaining that they wanted to develop distinct looks for classic ''Star Trek'' effects such as digitally-augmented alien species and transporter beams. Pixomondo is the primary visual effects vendor for the series, with other vendors including Spin VFX, Ghost VFX, Mackevision, Crafty Apes, DNEG, The Mill (company), The Mill, and FX3X, as well as visual effects supervisor Jason Zimmerman's in-house team at CBS Studios. Visual effects shots for each episode on ''Discovery'' typically take eight-to-ten months to complete, and include fully digital environments such as the shuttle bay of ''Discovery'', digital extensions of sets, shots of the ''Discovery'' and other starships, digital creatures, holograms, and 32nd century technology such as programmable matter.Music
Several composers auditioned for the series, including Charles Henri Avelange, and Fil Eisler whose audition music was used for the series' first teaser. Cliff Eidelman and Austin Wintory were also considered for the role, before Jeff Russo was announced as composer for the series in July 2017. Russo wanted the show's main theme to embody the ideals of ''Star Trek'' and "a commonality in people" by only using chords that have a common note, with a melody then added over the top. The theme is bookended by elements of Theme from Star Trek, the original ''Star Trek'' theme by Alexander Courage. Russo acknowledged that not all existing ''Star Trek'' fans were going to appreciate the new theme, but felt that regardless of how it compared to previous themes in the franchise it still accurately represented this series. Russo recorded the series' score with a 60-piece orchestra, initially at the Eastwood Scoring Stage at Warner Bros. Studios in California. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, musicians for the third season were recorded individually and their performances combined. Individual soundtrack albums for the two chapters of Star Trek: Discovery (season 1)#Music, the first season were respectively released on December 15, 2017, and April 6, 2018. A soundtrack album for Star Trek: Discovery (season 2)#Music, the second season was released on July 19, 2019, for Star Trek: Discovery (season 3)#Music, the third on April 16, 2021, and for Star Trek: Discovery (season 4)#Music, the fourth on August 26, 2022.Release
The first episode of ''Star Trek: Discovery'' aired in a "preview broadcast" on CBS in the United States and was made available with the second episode on CBS All Access. The rest of the series' episodes for the first three seasons were released weekly on All Access. CBS Studios International licensed the series to Bell Media for broadcast in Canada, and to Netflix for another 188 countries. In Canada, the premiere was simulcast with CBS on both the CTV Television Network and on the specialty channel CTV Sci-Fi Channel before being streamed on Crave (streaming service), Crave; it was also broadcast in French on the specialty channel Z (TV channel), Z. Subsequent episodes are released through CTV Sci-Fi Channel, Z, and Crave, with CTV Sci-Fi airing each episode 30 minutes before it's streamed on All Access. In the other countries, Netflix released each episode of the first three seasons for streaming within 24 hours of its U.S. debut. This agreement also saw Bell Media and Netflix acquire all previous ''Star Trek'' series to stream and broadcast at the time. In September 2020, ViacomCBS announced that CBS All Access would be expanded and rebranded as Paramount+ in March 2021. Existing episodes of ''Discovery''s first three seasons remained on Paramount+ along with future seasons of the series. On November 2, 2021, a home media box set collecting the first three seasons was released, with more than eight hours of special features including behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted and extended scenes, audio commentaries, and gag reels. On November 17, two days before the fourth season's international debut, ViacomCBS announced that it had bought back the international streaming rights to ''Discovery'' from Netflix effective immediately. The deal was for an undisclosed amount of money that was reported to be in the six-figure range, and meant that Netflix would no longer contribute to the series' budget as it had been doing since the original international licensing deal in July 2016. Because of the deal, the fourth season was set be streamed in countries outside of North America on Paramount+ once the service was available there some time in 2022. Following backlash from international fans, ViacomCBS made the season available internationally through several avenues.Reception
Viewership
According to Nielsen Media Research, the CBS broadcast of the first episode was watched by a "decent" audience of 9.5 million viewers. The premiere of the series led to record subscriptions for CBS All Access, with the service having its biggest day of signups, as well as its biggest week and month of signups thanks to the series. According to "app analytics specialist" App Annie, the premiere of the series also caused the number of downloads of the All Access mobile app to more than double, with revenue from the app for CBS doubling compared to the average in-app revenue during the previous 30 days. Increased subscribers for All Access was given as one of the reasons behind the series' second and third season renewals. Audience demand analytics company Parrot Analytics estimates streaming viewership based on global "demand expressions", with the "desire, engagement, and viewership weighted by importance". In the company's list of the top 20 most in-demand streaming series of 2020, ''Discovery'' was ranked 12th and was the highest ranked All Access series for the year. In the first week of Paramount+'s launch in March 2021, JustWatch, a guide to streaming content with access to data from more than 20 million users around the world, estimated that ''Star Trek: Discovery'' was the most in-demand series on the new service. In December 2021, Paramount+ revealed that ''Discovery'' was the most watched series on the streaming service for its inaugural year. Parrot Analytics listed the series as the 15th most in-demand streaming series of 2021, the only Paramount+ series in their top 20 list for the year.Critical response

In June 2020, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar named ''Star Trek: Discovery'' as one of the six best "morale-boosting TV dramas for people of color" for being the most consciously diverse ''Star Trek'' series and for featuring people of color as role models. The second, third, and fourth seasons all received the ReFrame Stamp, which is awarded by the gender equity coalition ReFrame as a "mark of distinction" for film and television projects that are proven to have gender-balanced hiring, with stamps being awarded to projects that hire female-identifying people, especially those of color, in four out of eight critical areas of their production.Lawsuit
In August 2018, Egyptian video game developer Anas Abdin announced that he would sue CBS for allegedly copying elements of his unreleased video game ''Tardigrades'', including large tardigrades that help humans travel through the universe instantly, and similar characters. The lawsuit was dismissed by Judge Lorna G. Schofield in September 2019, finding that the series and video game were not "substantially similar as a matter of law", and that the only similarities were the space setting and the use of alien tardigrades. Abdin appealed this dismissal, but the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld Schofield's decision in August 2020.Tie-in media
Publishing
In September 2016, ''Discovery'' writer Kirsten Beyer announced that CBS was working with IDW Publishing and Simon & Schuster to produce more content revolving around the setting of the series, starting with at least one novel and a comic book. Beyer, the writer of many List of Star Trek: Voyager novels, ''Star Trek: Voyager'' novels, explained that she would work with fellow ''Star Trek'' novelist David Alan Mack, David Mack and ''Star Trek'' comic writer Mike Johnson to ensure that all media "are coming from the same place". The release of the books and comics was set to coincide with the series' premiere. Mack described writing around the continuity of ''Discovery'' as "tricky to get right", as the time period is "light on detail and almost unique within the ''Star Trek'' continuity. That made it a challenge to represent that era faithfully while also staying true to the new elements being introduced" in the series. Beyer explained in August 2017 that the novels and comics would tell stories that the series did not have time to address but that enhanced the overall story for fans, though they would not be required reading to understand the series. She said the writers of the tie-in works and the series' writers room would work together to not contradict each other, but if an idea was developed for the series that did not work with something established in a tie-in then the series would take priority.Video games
By August 2017, hours of ''Discovery''-based content was set to be added to the video game ''Star Trek Timelines'', including introducing Michael Burnham and Saru as new crew members for the game and new ships from the show, Federation and otherwise. A month-long "Mega-Event" based on the series was run in the game to coincide with the series' premiere. In July 2018, a tie-in for the game ''Star Trek Online'' was announced titled ''Age of Discovery''. Set during the first season of the series, the event introduces a story set on the USS ''Glenn'' and includes the character Sylvia Tilly. Wiseman returned to voice the character. Other elements inspired by the series included new starship and Klingon designs. In January 2020, Martin-Green was set to voice Burnham for ''Star Trek Online''s "Legacy" expansion celebrating 10 years of the game.Aftershows
''After Trek''
CBS announced an official aftershow series for ''Discovery'' in 2017. Titled ''After Trek'', it is similar to AMC (TV channel), AMC's ''Talking Dead'', a companion to ''The Walking Dead (TV series), The Walking Dead'', and was hosted by Matt Mira. The series aired after each episode of ''Discovery'', and featured a rotating panel of guests including cast and crew members from ''Discovery'', former ''Star Trek'' actors, and celebrity Trekkies. It was produced by Embassy Row (production company), Embassy Row and Roddenberry Entertainment.''The Ready Room''
CBS announced in June 2018 that ''After Trek'' would be re-imagined for the second season of ''Discovery''. It was replaced with a new interview-style aftershow named ''The Ready Room'', hosted by Naomi Kyle, which streamed weekly on Facebook Live. ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' actor Wil Wheaton took over as host of ''The Ready Room'' for ''Discovery'' with its third season.Franchise expansion and spin-offs
In June 2018, after becoming sole showrunner of ''Discovery'', Kurtzman signed a five-year overall deal with CBS Television Studios to expand the ''Star Trek'' franchise beyond ''Discovery'' to several new series, miniseries, and animated series. Kurtzman wanted to "open this world up" and create multiple series set in the same universe but with their own distinct identities, an approach that he compared to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). He added that he would "weigh in meaningfully and significantly at all the critical junctures" for each new series. CBS and Kurtzman began referring to the expanded franchise as the "''Star Trek'' Universe" at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con, and monthly meetings with the showrunners of each new series were being held by April 2021 to allow coordination between the different series and ensure that "they're not stepping on each other's toes", according to Kurtzman. In addition to ''Star Trek: Picard'', ''Star Trek: Lower Decks'', and ''Star Trek: Prodigy'', the expanded franchise includes several direct spin-offs from ''Star Trek: Discovery'':''Star Trek: Short Treks''
Kurtzman announced in July 2018 that a companion series of shorts would be released between the seasons of ''Discovery'' to "deliver closed-ended stories while revealing clues about what's to come in future ''Star Trek: Discovery'' episodes. They'll also introduce audiences to new characters who may inhabit the larger world of ''Star Trek''."''Star Trek: Strange New Worlds''
After Mount left ''Discovery'' following the second-season finale, fans began calling for him to reprise his role of Christopher Pike in a spin-off set on the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701), USS ''Enterprise'', alongside Rebecca Romijn as Number One (Star Trek), Number One and Ethan Peck as Spock. Kurtzman confirmed that development on such a series had begun in January 2020, and Paramount+ ordered the spin-off, titled ''Star Trek: Strange New Worlds'', in May 2020.''Star Trek: Section 31''
By November 2018, Michelle Yeoh was in talks with CBS to star in a spin-off series as her character Philippa Georgiou, with the series expected to follow her adventures as a member of the secretive organization Section 31 (Star Trek), Section 31. ''Discovery'' writers Bo Yeon Kim and Erika Lippoldt were set as writers and showrunners of the new series in January 2019. Kurtzman said filming on the spin-off would begin once filming on the third season of ''Discovery'' was completed, but production on the spin-off was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Georgiou is written out of ''Discovery'' in the third season to set-up the spin-off. In February 2021, Kurtzman said there was still conversations taking place about making the series, but it was unlikely to be added to Paramount+'s ''Star Trek'' Universe slate until one of the existing five series came to an end. In February 2022, Kurtzman said the spin-off was still in development and his team were planning ''Star Trek'' series that would be released two or three years later. The series was expected to get a pickup from Paramount+ soon after.References
