‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Trailer: Anson Mount Boldly Goes Back to the Enterprise
variety.comAdam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer“Star Trek” is returning home to the U.S.S. Enterprise.In the first trailer for “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” the fifth “Trek” series set at Paramount Plus, Capt.
Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) is seen living in a remote winter cabin (presumably) on Earth.
