School is officially in session. Production has begun on, marked with newly released behind-the-scenes photos of the cast of Paramount+‘s new Star Trek series.
The newest installment in the Star Trek universe is a coming-of-age series following a team of young cadets as they train to become officers while facing formidable threats. It is executive produced by Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau, both of whom also serve as showrunners.
Per the synopsis, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy will introduce “a young group of cadets who come together to pursue a common dream of hope and optimism. Under the watchful and demanding eyes of their instructors, they discover what it takes to become Starfleet officers as they navigate blossoming friendships, explosive rivalries, first loves and a new enemy that threatens both the Academy and the Federation itself.”
