Star Trek and Paramount+ coming to international markets in 2022
By Chad Porto
Star Trek’s parent company has a new name following content dump.
Star Trek’s parent company used to be CBS. Then it merged with Viacom and it became ViacomCBS. Simple enough. Now, however, it’s getting yet another new name. Going forward, the parent company of Star Trek and other CBS and Viacom properties will simply be known as Paramount. Surely this won’t cause any complications with Paramount Network or Paramount Pictures.
That’s not all, however, as Star Trek fans outside of North and South America will finally get access to the shows they love. The service has already been in the Nordic region of Europe, as well as Australia, but a major rollout is happening in the next two years.
Star Trek fans in the UK, South Korea, and the Caribbean will get Paramount+ through its Sky international partners by the end of the second quarter in 2022, which is about early summer. An additional expansion into France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria will occur by the end of this year. Then come 2023, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East will have access to the platform as well.
