Paramount+ has given star trek franchise fans a first look at a special crossover episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks as part of the official trailer for the second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds which fell on Wednesday.

the new season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds It has the crew of the USS Enterprise under the command of Captain Christopher Pike, played by Anson Mount, facing new territories, civilizations and dangers.

“Are you going to start the engines soon, Erica?” Pike, prodded, questions Lieutenant Erica Ortegas, played by Melissa Navia, as the pilot seeks to pull the spaceship out of a downward spiral on tow. She doesn’t, but the USS Enterprise gets airborne anyway as Ortegas yells happily and Pike and his crew nervously catch their breath.

The teaser trailer also reveals a first look at an upcoming special crossover episode involving Star Trek: Lower Decks as Tawny Newsome as Beckett Mariner’s character and Jack Quaid as Brad Boimler appear in live-action form aboard the USS Enterprise. The episode, which will combine live action and animation, was directed by Star Trek: Picard actor and director Jonathan Frakes.

Paramount+ gave Trekkers something to look forward to by recently revamping Star Trek: Strange New Worlds for a third season and the animated Star Trek: Lower Decks for a fifth cycle after the decision to terminate Star Trek: Picard with its current third season and to say goodbye to the flagship Star Trek: Discovery series after its fifth season, which premieres in early 2024.

The second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds It will premiere on June 15. The series also stars Rebecca Romijn as Una Chin-Riley, Ethan Peck as Spock, Jess Bush as Christine Chapel, Christina Chong as La’An Noonien-Singh, Celia Rose Gooding as Nyota Uhura, and Babs Olusanmokun as Joseph. M’Benga.
