TELEVISION

The yet-to-be-named new Star Trek series that will focus on Captain Jean-Luc Picard will be available internationally on Amazon Prime Video when it is released later this year. The show, which will star Patrick Stewart reprising his role from Star Trek: The Next Generation, will be airing in the United States on CBS All Access.

This deal with Amazon will make it so that over 200 countries will be able to explore the final frontier with the fan favorite captain.

There is no word yet on a series title or an expected air date, though with the CBS Up Fronts happening later this week, we’re hopeful to get more exclusive details.

For now, check out the video below of Stewart giving the announcement.
