STAR TREK: PRODIGY is set to premiere on October 28, 2021, on Paramount+ with the first ten-episode season. It will then air on Nickelodeon before the second season is released on Paramount+. The series uses computer-generated animation, differing from previous Star Trek animation, and is intended for younger audiences than the rest of the franchise.
PRODIGY follows a group of teenagers who use an abandoned starship to search for adventure. Kate Mulgrew reprises her role as Kathryn Janeway from STAR TREK: VOYAGER. Additional voice cast stars are Rylee Alazraqui, Brett Gray, Angus Imrie, Jason Mantzoukas, Ella Purnell, Dee Bradley Baker, John Noble, and Jimmi Simpson.
Executive producer Alex Kurtzman said that composer Nami Melumad had been hired to compose the music for the new Star Trek series after impressing with her work on the STAR TREK: SHORT TREKS short “Q&A.” The series’ main theme was composed by Michael Giacchino, who supervised Melumad’s SHORT TREKS work and also composed the music for the Kelvin Timeline STAR TREK films.
