IN THE
STARS
With more than 15 years since a new Star Trek series
graced our screens, Star Trek: Discovery is a
long time coming. Jason Isaacs (“Harry Potter
and the Chamber of Secrets”) and Michelle Yeoh
(“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”) are in the
captain’s seats, but it’s Sonequa Martin-Green
(“The Walking Dead”) who takes the lead
in the new series.
Premieres Sunday, Sept. 24, on CBS, after
which the remainder of the series will
stream weekly on CBS All Access.
