New “Discovery” for trekkies
“Star Trek: Discovery” launched yesterday in all Netflix territories (excluding the US and Canada), and in celebration the streaming service released an exciting new Klingon trailer for the series.
If that wasn’t enough, there was an extra special surprise for Star Trek fans: all fifteen episodes of “Star Trek: Discovery” will be available to watch on Netflix with Klingon subtitles.
The series follows the voyages of Starfleet on their missions to discover new worlds and new lifeforms, and one Starfleet officer who must learn that to truly understand all things alien, you must first understand yourself.
Set roughly a decade before the events of the original Star Trek series and separate from the timeline of the concurrent feature films, “Discovery” explores the Federation–Klingon cold war while following the crew of the USS Discovery.
Sonequa Martin-Green stars as Michael Burnham, the first officer of the USS Shenzhou and later the USS Discovery. Also starring are Doug Jones, Shazad Latif, Anthony Rapp, Mary Wiseman, and Jason Isaacs. Michelle Yeoh appears as a guest star as Philippa Georgiou, Captain of the Shenzhou.
Star Trek, one of the most iconic and influential global television franchises, returns to television 50 years after it first premiered with “Discovery”. The series will feature a new ship, new characters and new missions, while embracing the same ideology and hope for the future that inspired a generation of dreamers and doers.
Episodes show on Netflix at 2pm Bangkok time every Monday, following the US episode broadcast on CBS.
