Get ready for an even more epic adventure in Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2! With episodes nearing completion, brace yourself for an exhilarating journey beyond imagination (247 characters)
Summary
Exciting update on Star Trek: Prodigy season 2: Writing, voice recording, and animatics for all 20 episodes are completed and animation is nearly finished.
Prodigy, which was canceled by Paramount+, is currently being actively pitched to various streaming services. The initial 10 episodes of season 2 have already been completed and finalized, and the remaining episodes are anticipated to be finished by January.
Star Trek: Prodigy executive producer Aaron J. Waltke provided an exciting update on the progress of season 2's episodes. Being an animated series and exempt from SAG-AFTRA regulations, Star Trek: Prodigy became the focal point at STLV: 57-Year Mission where a 4-minute preview of the premiere episode from season 2 was released. This glimpse into Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 showcased the return of The Doctor (Robert Picardo) from Star Trek: Voyager, as well as the introduction of the new USS Voyager-A, a Lamarr Class science vessel commanded by Admiral Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew).
Taking to Twitter, Aaron J. Waltke clarified the current status of Star Trek: Prodigy season 2's 20 episodes, which are still in the process of being completed. Despite being canceled by Paramount+ in June, the beloved Star Trek all-ages animated series is actively looking for a new streaming platform to call its home. In the meantime, have a look at Waltke's update on the progress and estimated completion dates for Star Trek: Prodigy season 2's episodes below.
Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2 Will Be Even Bigger Than Season 1
: Based on the production schedule for Star Trek: Prodigy season 2, the initial plan was for the first 10 episodes to be released on Paramount+ in the fall. However, the series was suddenly canceled. Once Prodigy finds a new streaming distributor, it is possible that all 20 episodes of season 2 will be ready for uninterrupted release, rather than being split into two sets of 10 episodes like Paramount+ did for season 1 of Star Trek: Prodigy.
Star Trek: Prodigy's second season is expected to surpass the ambitions of its first installment, with tantalizing hints from the producers and a captivating 4-minute clip unveiled at STLV. Admiral Janeway will lead the way alongside the diverse former crew members of the USS Protostar, who have now become aspiring cadets at Starfleet Academy. Their mission is to guide the highly advanced starship USS Voyager-A through a wormhole, aiming to rescue Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran) from the clutches of an alternate future on the planet Solum. In the midst of this daring endeavor, Gwyn (Ella Purnell) embarks on a journey to the 24th-century Solum, determined to prevent the future conflict between the Vau N'Akat and Starfleet.
That is only a small fraction of what the producers of Star Trek: Prodigy have hinted at for season 2. Aaron J. Waltke views Prodigy not only as a follow-up to Star Trek: Voyager, but as a continuation of the entire Star Trek franchise. Additionally, Waltke has mentioned that Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 will be connected to the broader Star Trek universe. Executive producers Kevin and Dan Hageman have informed fans at STLV that they are highly confident that ongoing negotiations will secure a new streaming platform for Star Trek: Prodigy. This means that fans will have the opportunity to witness the realization of the creators' ambitious plans for season 2.
