Gorn cliffhanger? Don't worry about it, there are hacks
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | First Look | Paramount+
Paramount Plus has given us a first look at Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, in a full scene released during the studio's panel at San Diego Comic-Con — and it's exactly the kind of playful situation the series has become known for.
The scene shows several human Enterprise crew members being genetically altered into (sort of racist?) Vulcans for unknown but seemingly necessary reasons. Then, after the successful and unexpectedly quick conclusion of their mission, well… things stay silly.
Fans may be a little sour at this light-hearted clip, following Season 2's cliffhanger ending, which left half the crew safe on the Enterprise and half the crew captured by the lizard-like Gorn, featuring Captain Pike's paramour, Captain Marie Batel (Melanie Scrofano) ). fatally infected with Gorn eggs. But look at it this way: This new teaser unsurprisingly hints that the Gorn capture wasn't the end for our heroes. And Paramount also confirmed a new actor for the series, Cillian O'Sullivan (Then You Run) as Dr. Roger Korby, Nurse Chapel's fiancee, first introduced in Star Trek: The Original Series.
