Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2 Release Date
The second season is still under production. So the release date for the second season has not been announced yet. For now, we can expect it in late 2023 or mid 2024.
The new season should consist of ten episodes like Season 1. Meanwhile, the makers are yet to provide an official confirmation on the same.
Star Trek: Prodigy Plot and Cast
Since Season 1 is still ongoing, there’s no way to know where the sophomore season of “Star Trek: Prodigy” intends to take things. Provided that the show doesn’t plan to deviate from its premise too much, it’s probably safe to say that the U.S.S. Protostar will continue its turbulent journey from the remote Delta Quadrant to Alpha Quadrant.
Since the majority of the most famous “Star Trek” civilizations hang around in the Alpha and Beta quadrants, the motley crew of main characters will likely run into more and more familiar faces as their journey progresses — think humans, Romulans, Klingons, and the like.
Due to the show’s concept of starting where no man has gone before and boldly working the way back, you can probably expect the characters to bump into plenty of classic “Star Trek” civilizations as their journey progresses.
Now talking about the cast, it includes Kate Mulgrew as Hologram Kathryn Janeway, Brett Gray as Dal, Ella Purnell as Gwyn, and Rylee Alazraqui as Rok-Tahk.
We will also get to see Angus Imrie as Zero, Jason Mantzoukas as Jankom Pog, Dee Bradley Baker Murf, John Noble as The Diviner, and Jimmi Simpson as Drednok.
