That’s a wrap on New York Comic Con 2025! Once again, the event has been a success, attracting over 250,000 to the Javits Centre to celebrate pop culture. Of course, you’re here like us because you want to know what Star Trek things you might have missed. Well, good news, we’ve got you covered. NYCC was big for things like Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, the next live-action show. However, we also got updates on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 4 & many merch updates. Let’s take a look!
Strange New Worlds Season 4 at NYCC
Despite being in the middle of filming the fifth and final season of Strange New Worlds, the cast and producers made the trek to this year’s New York Comic Con! The panel included Ethan Peck (Spock), Celia Rose Gooding (Uhura), Melissa Navia (Ortegas), and Martin Quinn (Scotty). As well as Executive Producers and co-showrunners Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers, and franchise boss Alex Kurtzman. New pictures for the upcoming season were revealed, with a synopsis.
In the upcoming fourth season, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise—led by Captain Christopher Pike—embarks on a series of thrilling and emotional adventures across the stars. As they journey to strange new worlds, they will battle inner demons and external threats, encounter colorful new characters, reunite with familiar faces and confront terrifying aliens. Through it all, they strive to embrace a bright, hopeful future.
While the cast and producers were keeping their cards very close to the chest, the panel did deliver a brand-new look at the season. The Star Trek Universe panel gave us a look at Season 4 of Strange New Worlds, with nearly 5 minutes of footage from the first episode. The Enterprise is shown exploring space anomalies, with the crew staring out in awe. It makes for a nice change of pace, emphasising the magic of the “new” in Strange New Worlds.
While there’s nothing in the way of bombshell reveals, it is far more Star Trek than the Vulcan clip that was Season 3’s First Look. And less whacky than a puppet episode sneak peek. There are echoes of the franchise’s ethos, and it’s suitably action-packed and exciting. It’s also reassuring that the show looks to be maintaining its high standard of visual effects. San Diego Comic Con also revealed puppets for season 4!

Starfleet Academy
New York Comic Con was certainly flying the Star Trek: Starfleet Academy flag! There was a large banner welcoming visitors into the venue, accompanied by a booth that provided an interactive experience for budding cadets. To add to this, the Star Trek Universe panel gave us a fresh look at the series with a brand new trailer! And yes, this trailer finally confirms a premiere date for the first season: January 15th, 2026!
We’ll be meeting new characters like Captain Nahla Ake (Holly Hunter) and Commander Lura Thok (Gina Yashere). This series is not without its nostalgia, however, as we’ll be reunited with Star Trek: Voyager legend The Doctor (Robert Picardo). Other returning characters include Admiral Vance (Oded Fehr) and Jett Reno (Tig Notaro) from Star Trek: Discovery. Sylvia Tilly (Mary Wiseman) is also slated to return, but is currently in only one episode.
But that’s not all! In a surprise announcement via video, we learned that Stephen Colbert will be joining Star Trek: Starfleet Academy as its Digital Dean of Students! Here’s what he had to say.
Starfleet Academy hasn’t even aired its debut season yet, but its young cast is already set to return for their sophomore year. The series secured its Season 2 renewal earlier this year and has already begun filming. For fans, it’s just months to go until the Season 1 premiere, and we’ll be there to cover every episode!
