The first look at Star Trek: Discovery season four promises the series’ most epic journey yet. Sonequa Martin-Green offered up a tease during First Contact Day 2021, a Paramount+ virtual event featuring panels and live streams for all things Star Trek.
In the tease you can see below, the USS Discovery crew is facing off against a gravitational anomaly that’s five light years wide. We also see Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) taking the captain’s chair in a new red uniform. She warns the crew of the threat, though, giving a grim tease of the crew’s upcoming battle. “We are facing something we don’t understand, something that could tear us all apart,” says Burnham.
Along with Martin-Green, series regulars Doug Jones as Saru, Anthony Rapp as Stamets, Mary Wiseman as Tilly, Emily Coutts as Keyla Detmer, and Wilson Cruz as Dr. Culber will return. Star Trek: Discovery season three newcomers David Ajala, Blu del Barrio, Ian Alexander, and Oded Fehr will also be returning.
