Today’s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 trailer follows yesterday’s announcement for Star Trek: Station 31, a new movie starring Michelle Yeoh as Emperor Philippa Georgiou, the fan-favorite character she played in the first season of Star Trek: Discovery.

Star Trek: Section 31 finds Emperor Philippa Georgiou joining a secret division of Starfleet charged with protecting the United Federation of Planets. In addition to looking after the UFP, Yeoh’s character will explore the sins of her past, confronting her journey in ways she could not have anticipated. Production is kicking off later this year courtesy of CBS Studios.

“I’m beyond thrilled to return to my Star Trek family and to the role I’ve loved for so long,” Yeoh said about returning to the Star Trek Universe. “Section 31 has been near and dear to my heart since I began the journey of playing Philippa all the way back when this new golden age of Star Trek launched. To see her finally get her moment is a dream come true in a year that’s shown me the incredible power of never giving up on your dreams. We can’t wait to share what’s in store for you, and until then: live long and prosper (unless Emperor Georgiou decrees otherwise)!”

Are you excited about today’s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 trailer? Are you ready to boldly go into the cosmos with the current cast of beloved characters? Feel free to let us know in the comments. Live long and prosper, everybody!
