When will Star Trek announce movie and TV show news next?
Star Trek: Lower Decks and Section 31 have announcements coming
Star Trek Day 2024’s laudable charity campaign lacks announcements for upcoming Star Trek on Paramount + TV shows and movies fans are hoping for. The next likely opportunity for Supreme + to fall major Star Trek News will be at New York Comic Con in OctoberWhere Paramount+ usually has a presence and holds panels. Star Trek: Lower Decks‘ final season and Star Trek: Episode 31 Could get new full trailers, and fans might even learn when Section 31 Premiere in 2025.
It’s a chance Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 could have a news tip, like its 2025 premiere date or a teaser trailer to follow the first look clip released at San Diego Comic-Con. Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Just started filming, so there won’t be any official news until sometime in 2025. Paramount+ hasn’t held an in-person Star Trek Day gala event since 2022But it’s heartening to see Star Trek Continue to live up to his high values by donating to worthy charities and encouraging fans to do the same to celebrate Star Trek Day 2024.
