These days, the Star Trek franchise is in a non -standard position. Both Revelation and The lower decks were prematurely canceled and Section 31 There was a direct mess that killed any other supporters of enthusiasm for future films from Paramount. And time Amazing new worlds This is a breath of fresh air (and fresh hair, thanks to the Anson Mount ‘do killer), it is clear that this franchise will need another hit to stay relevant. The best idea for this has already existed for more than three decades: we need a series’ star path another Five -year mission.

The mission we’ve never seen

If you just spit out tea (Count Gray, Hot), you may be surprised to find that both Temnology Star Trek (which came out in 1993) and Encyclopedia Star Trek (released in 1994) Both indicate that Kirk and the crew had a second five -year mission after the events Movie. Effectively occurred the jumping time between Movie and The wrath of HanaAnd the unhappy Admiral Kirk, which we see in this second film, is the one who finally gave up the galaxy. C of A A new star hike Series, we could finally study what happened between the two films.

At first glance, you might think that the biggest obstacle to creating such a series’ star path William Shatner And Leonard is the no. However, Amazing new worlds already gave us younger versions of the main Original series Characters such as kirk, SpokeUhura and Scotti, as well as supporting heroes such as a chapel and M’Bang. If these actors could repress their roles into the future The Star Trek SeriesThis will require a relatively little effort to quit new TOS characters such as McCa, Sul and checks.

The problem with this plan, of course, is that all this Star Way: Amazing New Worlds Actors were shot because they were young enough to pull out pre –Original series versions of these famous characters. However, this is the beauty of this plan: SNW has not yet been aired by its third season, and based on the popularity of the show, we can probably count on what it has been holding for a few more years. By the time this show is wrapped in and Vov Completes the previous preparation in the new Star Way series, all these actors will be old enough (more or less) to play a role afterMovie characters.

If you still think about it Amazing new worlds The actors would be too young for this role, maybe think that William Shatner and his original crew may also be old They played for the details. You see, Original series‘The final season was set in 2269 and Movie It was installed somewhere in the 2270s. Despite the full decade Between the end of the show and the first TMP movie was supposed to happen relatively shortly after TOS.

Thus, the actors in this proposed “Star Way” series should look just as old as he looked into the “Ekipage”, say, in 1972. This year, William Shatner and Leonard Nimo was 41 years old. Meanwhile, the current actor Kirk Paul Wesley is now 42 perfect For the new Star Trek series passing after Movie.

Apart from easy casting, such a series would be useful because it would be so The stellar path (2009) Movie, bring new fans to the franchise. As for other shows, this franchise will always be related to picks, spokes and classic crew of enterprises. The series dedicated to their previously unknown adventures is likely to lead to much more fans than the current Star Trek Origin Paramount movie is being developed.

Saying that the biggest problem of this movie is that it is reported to be focused on first contact foreigners and the formation of the federation, the events that have already been covered First contact and Enterprise. To put it mildly, such a plot will annoy the older fans who see that Paramount alternately throws out the old canon and reading the old stories we have seen. With the proposed my new Star Trek Paramount series can attract new fans by giving the old The wrath of Hana.

Given that Paramount cancels big shows like Star Way: Lower decks While pushed the slope as Section 31It is doubtful that they take my proposal to a new series very seriously. It’s very bad because such a show would be an easy victory for the franchise that desperate need one, all that allows producers to re -use Amazing new worlds kits. Instead we are stuck Academy Starfleet. long Time ago.
