　　Now Playing: Star Trek: Picard NYCC Trailer Breakdown

　　Original story below:

　　The highly-anticipated new show focusing on the iconic Star Trek character Jean-Luc Picard has been renewed for a second season. Season 1 of Star Trek: Picard doesn't premiere until early next year, but it has been confirmed that star Patrick Stewart will return for Season 2.

　　As reported by Deadline, Picard Season 2 looks likely to have 10 episodes and will premiere on CBS All Access. Season 1 will have the same number of episodes and arrives on January 23, 2020. There are no further details about Season 2 available yet, but current showrunner Michael Chabon won't be returning, as he's about to oversee an adaptation of his acclaimed novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay at Showtime.

　　Stewart played Picard in 7 seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and the new show will feature a number of familiar faces from that show, namely Brent Spiner as Data, Jonathan Frakes as Riker, and Marina Sirtis as Deanna Troi, plus Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine from Star Trek: Voyager.

　　In related news, it was recently reported that there are two new Star Trek movies in development. The planned fourth movie in the current reboot series was seemingly cancelled earlier this year, but ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish has stated that more movies are on the way. However, it's unknown if one of these are the Quentin Tarantino-written R-rated Star Trek that the filmmaker has described as "Pulp Fiction in space." Just recently, Tarantino said his Star Trek movie is unlikely to happen, although he said an official conversation on the subject has not yet taken place.
