Michelle Yeoh's Captain Emperor Georgiou From STAR TREK DISCOVERY is Getting Her Own Series
Another Starfleet captain will be getting their own stand alone series. According to Deadline, Michelle Yeoh, who plays Captain Emperor Georgiou in Star Trek Discovery, is in talks to reprise her role in a new solo series on CBS All Access.
The streaming service is really going all out with the Star Trek franchise! Hell, it almost seems like there now point in seeing anymore Star Trek films with all of the new Star Trek shows that are currently in development.
Captain Philippa Georgiou is set to return to Star Trek Discovery in Season 2 and the spinoff is said to likely “focus on a continuation of her Discovery Season 2 adventures in Starfleet’s Section 31 division. The semi-secret and autonomous organization has been a part of Trek lore since it was first introduced in the 1990s on the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine series.”
Alex Kurtzman, who is leading the charge on all of the Star Trek shows, will obviously heavily be involved with the development.
This is just one of several other Star Trek series ideas being developed for CBS All Access. On top of Discovery, there’s also the Jean-Luc Picard series, and and adult animated comedy series called Star Trek: Below Decks.
CBS All Access is well on their way on achieving the goal of having “a Star Trek something on all the time on All Access.”
