New Star Trek TV Series Teaser Trailer Released

CBS has released a new teaser for the upcoming Star Trek TV series.

First shown to advertisers and press earlier today at the network's upfronts presentation, the teaser reveals the series logo and…really, not much else. There are some planet graphics that zoom by, and the promise of a new crews, new planets, and new villains. Nothing really solid, but it is interesting that used "crews," implying that the series may follow multiple ships.

Bryan Fuller (Hannibal) will serve as showrunner and executive producer on the new series, which is the first new Star Trek TV show in over a decade. Alex Kurtzman and Nicholas Meyer are also on board as producers. The series will debut in January 2017 on CBS, with new episodes following CBS's digital platform, CBS All Access.
