Star Trek Picard series begins filming
The day has finally arrived. Production on the still-untitled Star Trek Picard series has begun in southern California. While the CBS All Access series has not officially been named, it will feature Patrick Stewart returning to the role of Jean-Luc Picard twenty years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis.
With the first season scheduled to run for ten one-hour episodes, the series is expected to wrap production in mid-September.
Produced by Alex Kurtzman’s Secret Hideout and CBS Studios, the show is set to join Star Trek: Discovery on CBS All Access later this year.
