[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”27657″ img_size=”600×300″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]As the the CBS All Access series Picard continues to pick up steam toward its early 2020 release date, fans have been trying to ascertain what the series will most be like. Will it lean more toward Star Trek Discovery, or will it beckon back to its TNG roots? If you were to ask CBS All Access executive vice president of original content Jamie McNamara, the answer would be…Both! She expressed the direction the series would take while speaking to the press at the TCA press tour (via SlashFilm)
I would say that it is in production, sort of size and scope, probably more similar to Discovery. In terms of the characters and the nature of the storytelling, probably more like Next Generation. But of course, we’re a number of years later now so there are some shifts in the storytelling style but I think it’s a really nice hybrid of the two.
With Discovery entering its third season, it would make sense that they might reflect some of the things that have made that series successful so far. However, it also would be smart to not go too far away from where Picard made his debut. If audience response to the trailer has been any indication, it appears that the show’s creators are off to a promising start.
Are you excited to see Patrick Stewart reprise his iconic role as Jean Luc Picard? Did the recently released trailer give you hope it will be at least as successful as Star Trek Discovery? Share with us your hopes for the Federation at GeekVibesNation.
