Star Trek: Discovery’s Pike and Spock May Get Their Own Series

Those of you who follow Star Trek: Discovery know the end of season 2 has seen two of the main characters – Pike and Spock – separated from the rest of the crew, and while most of the cast ended the season far into the federation’s future, Pike and Spock have been left behind. Thus, it has become possible for the two to get a spin-off depicting their time together until they catch up with the events of the original series.

When asked about this possibility during CBS All Access’ Television Critics Association day, head of Original Content, Julie McNamara, confirmed it is a possibility. “We’ve definitely heard fans that people are excited about the notion of that. We have heard them loud and clear. We also thought there was incredible chemistry around that bridge crew so, among many things that we talk about, that idea is certainly one of them,” she said.

Along with the third season of Discovery and the new Picard series, Producers Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman have two more live-action series in development. Michelle Yeoh’s character Georgiou is getting her own spin-off series as well and this just might be the second one.
