Fair warning: If you have not yet watched the animated Star Trek: Prodigy, this trailer will make you want to do so. Immediately. (I’m speaking from experience here.) The series, which moved to Netflix after Paramount cancelled it and removed it from streaming, returns on July 1st with 20 new episodes—and yes, in true Netflix fashion, those episodes will arrive all at once.
Here’s the synopsis:
In Season 2 of Star Trek: Prodigy, these six young outcasts who make up the Prodigy crew are assigned a new mission aboard the U.S.S. Voyager-A to rescue Captain Chakotay and bring peace to Gwyn’s home world. However, when their plan goes astray, it creates a time paradox that jeopardizes both their future and past.
Can we just pause for a quick second to adore Dee Bradley Baker as Murf going “PEW PEW PEW” while firing lasers? Okay. Back to business.
Those six extremely charming outcasts are voiced by Brett Gray (Dal), Ella Purnell (Gwyn), Rylee Alazraqui (Rok-Tahk), Angus Imrie (Zero), Jason Mantzoukas (Jankom Pog), and voice acting superstar Baker (Murf). As anyone familiar with Star Trek: Voyager can tell you, that’s Kate Mulgrew voicing Captain Kathryn Janeway. John Noble is also here as The Diviner, and Jimmi Simpson as Drednok.
In season two, recurring cast members include Robert Beltran (Captain Chakotay), Robert Picardo (The Doctor), Jason Alexander (Dr. Noum), Daveed Diggs (Commander Tysess), Jameela Jamil (Ensign Asencia), Ronny Cox (Admiral Jellico), and Michaela Dietz (Maj’el).
Star Trek: Prodigy is created by Kevin and Dan Hageman (Trollhunters). It’s the first Trek series intended for younger viewers—but that doesn’t mean us olds can’t appreciate it as well. [end-mark]
