Jess Bush gives update for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 4
Time is growing closer for the season three premiere of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. We can expect to see it on Paramount+ in early 2025. With only ten episodes per season, it seems like the wait between seasons can be interminable. Unsurprisingly, we're looking at another year before we're likely to see season four as Jess Bush, who portrays Nurse Christine Chapel on the series, recently gave us an update.
Bush recently gave an interview to local new station PIX11 News to discuss her her art installation "Bee Totem," which is currently on display in New York City. During that conversation, Bush said that the cast of Strange New Worlds would be returning to Toronto to begin filming in the spring of 2025. [via Gamerant] Most likely, season four will be filming while season three is airing.
Post production for any series can take a few months so even once filming is completed, the series won't be ready for debut for another five to six months. So we're probably looking at an early 2026 debut for the fourth season. And while that might seem like it's took long of a wait between seasons, this is giving us new episodes of Star Trek every year.
With Starfleet Academy in production at present, we might see it in 2026 as well. 2025 will bring us the Section 31 movie in January and the third season of Strange New Worlds in the spring. And Paramount could have something else under its hat that we don't know about. That doesn't sound like a lot of Star Trek next year, but we'll probably hear about more upcoming Star Trek shows and movies on First Contact Day on April 5, 2025. It won't be a surprise to hear that the new live-action comedy created by Tawny Newsome and Justin Simien has been greenlit. Now, if only we could get the same news for Star Trek: Legacy!
