Star Trek: The Next Generation Reboot With Patrick Stewart Reportedly in Development

Rumors of the Picard-centric reboot come amid Alex Kurtzman extending his CBS contract for a planned expansion of the Star Trek TV universe.



According to a THR article, there are unconfirmed rumors that CBS TV Studios is developing a Star Trek reboot starring Patrick Stewart in which he would reprise his The Next Generation role as Captain Jean-Luc Picard. According to THR's sources, Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman are attached to the potential reboot. Not only is this an unconfirmed project, but THR's sources also say that the deal is far from complete and might not happen. Still, this would be huge news for Star Trek fandom—however you might feel about a Picard-centric reboot.

The rumors of the Picard reboot come amidst Kurtzman renewing his overall deal with CBS Television Studios, extending his contract by five years. This will keep him in partnership with the studio through 2023, for a reported $5 million per year.

Kurtzman was recently made sole showrunner of Star Trek: Discovery following the dismissal of previous co-showrunners Aaron Harberts and Gretchen Berg who left amidst reports of bullying behavior in the writers room. Goldsman, who served as an executive producer on Season 1 of Discovery, also left the show, reportedly due to a clash with the writing staff in terms of management style and personality, so it's interesting that he is still attached to the potential Picard-centric reboot.

In addition to his work on Star Trek: Discovery, Kurtzman's extended deal with CBS Television Studios will include an expansion of the Star Trek franchise on the small screen, including the development of new series, miniseries, and other content, including animation.

While this generally seems like good news for the Star Trek universe, it may also be disappointing, depending on what kind of Star Trek fan you are. While the move represents a reinvestment in the Star Trek TV universe, Kurtzman is not known for critical success. Previously, he has co-written the scripts for Transformers, Star Trek, Star Trek Into Darkness, and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. More recently, he directed and co-wrote The Mummy. Not exactly the kind of nuanced science fiction writing Star Trek has, at its best, historically represented.

More news on the expanded Star Trek TV universe as we hear it.

I figured he was up there but he really seemed to have shown it since I last saw him in a movie.

They're deliberately making him look more feeble than he actually is, since he doesn't come off that way in interviews/appearances.

I just wish his voice weren't so old-sounding. The way he delivered lines with conviction in TNG was one of the best parts of the show.

The show is great otherwise. Like a combo of Star Trek and Blade Runner

So one thing I love about this show....I was quite worried I wouldn't care about the supporting cast, but damn if they didn't make me care about them.

They're all pretty great.

Romulan Legolas inparticular is ****ing awesome. If he has to sacrifice himself for Picard at some point, there will be tears.

I watched the first four episodes. I was wary, but it has been enjoyable. It reminds me of those Picard episodes of TNG. It has a certain flair and a certain sense of humor about it that I enjoy.

I was really, really enjoying this show, and then Jean-Luc tore down the ROMULANS ONLY sign and sat his old ass down in their bigoted bar and stared every ****ing Romulan down without so much as a lip quiver.



And then he was actually gonna fence one of the Romulans - and looked like he was going to hold his own - and then Romulan Legolas came in outta nowhere.

This is the best possible version of Star Trek so far. It's like someone took all the best stuff from DS9 and TNG and threw it in a big pot together and added just a tiny dash of Abrams.

What the **** Paramount was doing wasting time with Discovery and JJ's stupid movies is beyond me.

THIS is Star Trek.

Also, Jean-Luc's outfits are just the best. Particularly liked how he pointed out how absurd that 24th century suit was, too.
