Paramount Star Trek film, S4, Academy & 60th

Overview

At a San Diego Comic-Con panel in July 2026, Paramount Pictures announced that Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley will write, direct, and produce the next Star Trek feature film. The project aims to significantly reboot the franchise by introducing an entirely new cast and setting the story “a little further into the future” than any previous entry. This new direction is expected to depart from the Kelvin timeline and the characters portrayed by Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and Zoe Saldana, serving as a fresh entry point for new audiences.

The announcement signals a return to theatrical releases following the cancellation of several recent TV projects, including the planned fourth season of *Starfleet Academy*.

Celebrating the franchise’s 60th anniversary, the same weekend saw the launch of *Star Trek: Strange New Worlds* season 4 on Paramount+ (July 23 – Sept 24), featuring a time-travel arc set 65 million years in the past. The Comic-Con panel also featured veteran actor George Takei, who received a standing ovation, alongside a cross-generation cast including Michael Dorn, Robert Picardo, and Jerry O’Connell. Other franchise updates included the confirmation of Ruaridh Aldington as the alien cadet Keats in *Starfleet Academy* season 2, a sneak-peek trailer for *Strange New Worlds* season 4, and the announcement of the preschool animated series *Star Trek: Scouts*, slated for launch on Star Trek Day (Sept 8).
