Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn Not Returning for STAR TREK: DISCOVERY Season 3

Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn Not Returning for STAR TREK: DISCOVERY Season 3

Anson Mount, who joined the cast of Star Trek: Discovery last year, is set to depart at the culmination of the series’ second season.

Mount, who plays Captain Christopher Pike, has been a standout and a focus of season two, has a strict one-year deal, according to a report on Deadline. Fellow series star, Rebecca Romijn, who plays Number One, is also set to leave following the season two finale later this year.

In January, Mount joked about being unemployed on Twitter, after season two filming had wrapped in Toronto.

The series will continue on following Mount’s departure from the show, as a third season was announced in February.

Star Trek: Discovery stars Sonequa Martin-Green, Doug Jones, Shazad Latif, Anthony Rapp, Mary Wiseman and Wilson Cruz. It’s available to stream on CBS All Access in the US and on Netflix Internationally.

    Dumb… Pike helped it transfer from being thought of as STD to DISCO…. Now I fear it will revert back to the weakness of the first season.

    They offered Anson a strict one year deal because Hollywood hates conservative white men almost as much as they hate Trump. It’s really more of a self-loathing kinda thing but who cares? Nobody will be watching.

    Dumb idea on that one year deal. Anson lifted Discovery a lot with his attitude and acting.

    Anson Mount has been an outstanding contribution to Star Trek Discovery!!! He embodies all the great qualities of the other captains of the Enterprise!!! His loss will be a blow to the show. Fix this and bring him back!!!!

    I think that Pike and Spock should return to Enterprise in a new show. That would be awesome.

    I have been a long time closet Treky and I have really tried to give this version a fair chance but all the virtue signalling makes Discovery almost unwatchable.

    Mount will be a huge loss. Hope he gets his own series. There’s several years worth of story there to explore.

    Anson has been a definite plus. I think Bruce Greenwood laid down the pattern for Mount’s characterization of Pike.

    Left the sinking shitshow.

    I really wish we’d had an opportunity to see more of Rebecca Romijn as Number One. Such an interesting character. Maybe if they do more of the Short Treks they can do one about her.
