STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS Season 3 Clip Shows the Enterprise in Battle

A nailbiting, season finale cliffhanger has been a true Star Trek tradition since the Borg assimilated Picard back in 1990. And last year, the season two finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds kept that tradition going, showing the U.S.S. Enterprise facing off against the Gorn Hegemony. Well, now we have our very first clip of the season three premiere. It picks up right where Captain Pike and crew left off, in a life-or-death battle with their reptilian foes. You can watch this first clip from the season three premiere of Strange New Worlds, which came straight from New York Comic-Con 2024:

The Gorn first appeared in the original Star Trek series back in 1967. And they have largely kept to the periphery ever since. But Strange New Worlds has given them a new lease on life, turning them into something far more terrifying than they ever were before. Of course, we know the Enterprise crew will emerge victorious. If only because we’ve already seen other clips from later episodes in season three. Besides, we know they renewed the show for season four already. So if the Gorn win, that would sure be a depressing next two years of Trek adventures.

Via Deadline, we’ve also learned that Our Flag Means Death actor Rhys Darby is joining the cast in a guest star role. We’re not sure who he’s playing just yet. However, Strange New Worlds has been teasing the addition of Spock’s half-brother Sybok ever since the first season. Season three feels like the right time to introduce him. Sybok was the antagonist in the much-maligned film Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Then, they never mentioned him again for decades. Nevertheless, he’s a character with a ton of potential, and it would not be a surprise to us if that’s who Rhys Darby is playing.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season three drops on Paramount+ in early 2025.
