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.

Is there a strange new worlds thread or do we keep all things in Star Trek here?

I think Frazod should start a new thread for that series. It looks so promising. We know we are getting old school Spock, Uhura and it’s leaked that Capt. Kirk is making an appearance in the first season.

Sure it looks promising. And Pike and the Enterprise crew were the ONLY good thing about Discovery.

But all these shows are being run by the same assholes. I sincerely hope that they don't **** it up. But they've ****ed up everything else they've done, and expecting different results is foolishly optimistic at best.

Star Trek needs to be saved like Star Wars was saved. Don't see it happening anytime soon.

Three more I've thought about it the more my optimism for Strange New Worlds has dimmed. My fear is that it'll be bite size Discovery. The same hackneyed character melodrama and lack of ideas, just less drawn out.

Basically what Frazod said, that at the end of the day it's the same writers. I'll hope for something different, but I'm not going to expect it.

Also I was mixed on those character trailers, a lot of the dialog seemed too cute and quippy. I'm not the biggest fan of Rick Berman, but he was right about this:

Quote:
There is something very specific and unique about acting on Star Trek. This is true for our cast regulars as well as for our guest stars. Star Trek is not contemporary. It's a period piece. And even though it's a period piece in the future as opposed to a period piece in the past, it still necessitates a certain style of acting and writing that is not contemporary. It's not necessarily mannered like something that would take place in a previous century, but it's probably closer to that than it is to contemporary.

Well, I got caught up on this last night. Not really sure why I bothered, as it's really gone off the rails.

The young Guinan thing was a mess. Totally ****ed up canon, since Guinan had first met Picard more than a century earlier and would damn well know who he was.

"Mess" is a good word to describe this show. How would the ship crashing in the middle of France not be picked up on radar and investigated? And if they were going to have a manned Europa mission as a story element, setting this show only two years in the future is kind of silly. Q's demeanor and attitude seem way off from the way TNG concluded. And yet another ancient Soong portrayed by Brent Spiner, and the daughter is played by the girl from season one. This is starting to remind me of a Monty Python movie where six people play different parts throughout, minus the quality and humor.

Not impressed. Not enjoying it. And I really am beginning to loathe scrunchy faced murder girl.

Ugh.
