We already know that the main character of the new Star Trek TV series, titled Star Trek: Discovery, will not be a captain. At least not to start. Instead, the main character will be a lieutenant commander played byThe Walking Dead star Sonequa Martin-Green.
But the starship Discovery does still need a captain, and CBS has found the actor to play him. It’s being reported that Jason Isaacs has joined the cast of the show, and will play a character named Captain Lorca.
The new Star Trek TV series, titled Star Trek: Discovery, is officially in production. To mark the occasion, a video has been released offering a look behind the scenes of the show.
The video begins with a short history lesson that’s sure to bring a smile to the face of any Trek fan. After that we’re treated to some quick peeks at the production, including the sets being built, costumes, and more.
Previously it’s been announced that the cast of the new Star Trek TV series, Star Trek: Discovery, will include Michelle Yeohas a Starfleet captain and Anthony Rapp and Doug Jonesas Starfleet science officers.
