Star Trek: Discovery Season Four is the first season beginning with Michael Burnham as Discovery's captain. That's a change in the making since Star Trek: Discovery debuted. Speaking to ComicBook.com in July, Martin-Green touched on what that means for her.

"That's such a big deal to me," Martin-Green says of Burnham finally becoming captain. "Being captain now of that franchise solidified at the helm of that ship in the franchise's history as a Black woman, huge for me and, in general, for the franchise itself."

Star Trek: Discovery Season Four's cast members include Sonequa Martin-Green (Captain Michael Burnham), Doug Jones (Saru), Anthony Rapp (Paul Stamets), Mary Wiseman (Sylvia Tilly), Wilson Cruz (Dr. Hugh Culber), David Ajala (Cleveland "Book" Booker) and Blu del Barrio (Adira). Star Trek: Discovery streams exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. The series is distributed concurrently by ViacomCBS Global Distribution Group on Netflix in 190 countries and Canada on Bell Media's CTV Sci-Fi Channel and streams on streams Crave. CBS Studios produce the series in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment.

All the Star Trek Day celebration panels are available to live-stream for free at StarTrek.com/Day and on Paramount+ and Paramount+'s Twitch page in the U.S. The Star Trek Day panel schedule is available at StarTrek.com/Day.
