But I don&#8217;t really think that anyone could have seriously predicted Paramount announcing that the live-action <em>Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/em> series would have a crossover with their animated <em>Star Trek: Lower Decks<\/em> series.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement came yesterday at Paramount&#8217;s Star Trek panel during this weekend&#8217;s San Diego Comic Con.<\/p>\n<p>The crossover will come some time next year during <em>Strange New Worlds<\/em>&#8216;s upcoming second season and see that show&#8217;s lead, Captain Christopher Pike as played by Anson Mount, traveling forward in time nearly 100 years, to <em>Lower Decks<\/em>&#8216;s USS Cerritos where he will encounter ensigns Brad Boimler and Beckett Mariner as played the animated characters&#8217; voice actors Jack Quaid and Tawny Newsome. No real further information about the episode has been announced.<\/p>\n<p><em>Strange New Worlds<\/em> is set about ten years before Captain James T Kirk&#8217;s historic tour of duty on the Federation starship <em>Enterprise<\/em>. Mount stars as Kirk&#8217;s predecessor on the <em>Enterprise<\/em>. Lower Decks is set several years after the conclusion of <em>Star Trek: The Next Generation<\/em> and is a comedic take on life aboard ship for lower ranking crew on board a fairly unremarkable ship of the line.<\/p>\n<p>Comedic episodes have a long tradition in <em>Star Trek<\/em>, dating all the way to the original series in episodes such as &#8220;The Trouble With Tribbles&#8221; and &#8220;Shore Leave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Star Trek: Lower Decks<\/em> returns for its third season on the Paramount+ streaming service on August 25.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Paramount announces the most unexpected crossover within their STAR TREK franchise.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2022\/07\/24\/upcoming-star-trek-crossover-strange-new-worlds-lower-decks\/\" title=\"Upcoming STAR TREK Crossover &#8211;  STRANGE NEW WORLDS And&#8230; LOWER DECKS?\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":50647,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10285],"tags":[10873,11356],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-50644","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv-news","8":"tag-star-trek-lower-decks","9":"tag-star-trek-strange-new-worlds"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50647"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50644"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=50644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
