Nowadays, the Star Trek franchise is in an unstable position. Both Discovery and Lower decks were premature withdrawn and 31 There was a direct streaming that killed all the remaining fans’ enthusiasm from Paramount’s subsequent films. And while Strange new worlds There is a breath of fresh air (and fresh hair thanks to the Anson Mount killer do), it is clear that this franchise will need another hit show to stay appropriate. The best idea for this has been for over three decades: we need a Star Trek series that focuses on captain Kirk second Five -year mission.
The mission we never saw

If you just squeeze your tea (Earl Gray, hot) you might be surprised to discover that both Star Trek chronology (which came out in 1993) and Star Trek Encyclopedia (which came out in 1994), however, indicates that Kirk and crew had a second five -year mission after events FilmThere was actually a time leap between time in the area Film and HanAnd the unfortunate Admiral Kirk we see in this second film is the one who has finally abandoned the galaxy galaxy. With a New Star Trek The series, we could finally explore exactly what happened between these two films.
At first glance you might think the biggest obstacle to forming such a Star Trek series William Shatter And Leonard Nimoy. Nevertheless Strange new worlds has already given us newer main versions The original series Characters like Kirks, GhostUhura, and Scotty, as well as supports characters such as chapel and m’Benga. If these actors could surprise their roles for the future Star Trek seriesIt would require a relatively small effort to introduce new actors to stay those heroes, such as Macium, Juice and Chekov.
The problem of this plan is, of course, that all Star Trek: Strange new worlds Actors were handed over because they were young enough to pull off the priorThe original series Versions of these famous heroes. However, this is the beauty of this plan: SNW has not even demonstrated its third season, and based on the popularity of the show, we may be able to rely on it for several years. Until this show wraps and Most important Complete the new Star Trek series pre-treatment, all these actors will be old enough (more or less) to play post-Film characters.

If you still think Strange new worlds Actors would be too young for this role is probably worth considering that William Shatter and his original crew were undoubtedly ancient About the parts they played. Vision, The original series‘The last season was set in 2269 Film was determined at some point in the 2270s. Despite full decade Between the end of the show and the first movie, TMP should have happened relatively soon after them.
Therefore, this proposed Star Trek series actors just have to look as old as they are, say, in 1972. That year William Shatter and Leonard Nimoy were 41 years old. Meanwhile, current Kirk actor Paul Vesley is now 42 years old and current Spock actor Ethan Peck is 38. Dip the fact that they each look younger than they are and these two actors look complete for a new Star Trek series that is going on after FilmIn the area
Apart from easy casting, such a series would be beneficial as it would be, liked Star Trek (2009) Movie, bring new fans to franchise. For other performances, this franchise will always be related to the crew of Kirk, Ghost and Classical Enterprises. The series that focuses on their previously unknown adventures will probably bring much more fans than the Star Trek Origin File Paramount is currently developing.

Speaking of this, the biggest problem of this film is that it will be announced to focus on the first contact with alien and the formation of the federation, the events that have already been viewed First contact and CompanyTo put it mildly in the area, such a story will annoy the older fans, which shows that Paramount alternately throws the old canon and retreats the old stories we have already seen. With my proposed new Star Trek series, Paramount could attract new fans while giving the elders something we have wanted for several years: the franchise’s “lost years” screen version that is better in contextualization where our characters are (physically and emotional) HanIn the area
Given that Paramount has canceled great performances such as Star Trek: Low decks while squeezing the slope as 31It is doubtful that they will take my suggestion on a new series very seriously. However, this is too bad because such a show would be a light win for the franchise desperately Need one while allowing manufacturers to reuse Strange new worlds Kits. Instead we are stuck Starfleet Academy90210 greets Mary from a franchise in space, who had to put herself in a transporter buffer a long ahead of time.
