What's familiar becomes new again when Sir Patrick Stewart reprises his role as Jean-Luc Picard in the new CBS All Access original series Star Trek: Picard. Find out how Stewart and the series' executive producers plan to honor Star Trek: The Next Generation, while exploring uncharted territory for the iconic character.
This series will tell a whole new chapter of Picard’s life, as he embarks on a mission to protect a mysterious and powerful young woman named Dahj (Isa Briones), who shares a connection with him. He assembles a small crew for a little galaxy-class or Sovereign-class flagship like the Enterprise and head back into the vastness of space.
The series will also feature the return of Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek: Voyager’s Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine, Jonathan Frakes as Will Riker from Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Brent Spiner as Data.
