It's hit Comic Book Resources, admittedly an extremely unreliable site.
These might be real, but there is no way that the names are.
The pilot is named Connie. Like "take the conn."
The guy who is a "lethal weapon" is named K'Bar. Like...Kabar. Which is a lethal weapon.
The guy who techs the tech...is named Starton. Start. On.
The hologram is named Dr. Smith. Just about the most generic name one can pick.
These kinds of names are often not real, of course. But yikes, I sure hope those aren't the names.
On, and the working title is "Drawing Room?" Assuming they mean working title and not code name...it's hard to believe that would ever, ever be the working title.
actually yes that makes a lot of sense.2389 works better than 2399 because it makes the destruction of Romulus feel more immediate. Only two years later, there's still a real urgency about what just happened. At 12 years later, it's more like "Why has Picard been sitting on this so long?" or you wonder "What happened during the other 12 years?"
With just two years, no one would be wondering what Picard was doing. He commanded the Enterprise until 2387 and it took him two years -- and a lot of work -- to plan out everything afterwards he wants to do now. Pretty straight-forward.
It reads like bullsh*t to me. I'm sure variety, and deadline or better yet EW will have real info than that on a later date when there's something to actually promote.I hope this is just a bunch of fanwank BS, because this sounds completely uninteresting to me.
regarding this Star Pirate aspect of the show I guess if this is true it'll be moving along the lines of what we saw in Trek III (merchant ship, Bones in the bar, stealing the Ent), Unification, Gambit, and even Renegades .. and The Chase with all the archaeological quest
yes that's possible as well. also Prometheus made me think back to Trek V with quest for god, sinister deity stuff on barren world etc (and lots of space pirate stuff in V too)I'm getting a Prometheus vibe. Not the plot, but the basic idea of a collection of people out in search of something and Picard/Weyland put it together. Except one has good intentions and the other didn't.
I'm glad someone said it. The more I think about this article, the more I truly hope it's garbage.I hope this is just a bunch of fanwank BS, because this sounds completely uninteresting to me.
I remember reading an article in early 1987 that detailed the names of TNG characters. The android named "Data" stood out as being particularly ridiculous. But thirty years later, he's firmly entrenched in Trek Lore (pun semi-intended).These might be real, but there is no way that the names are.

Weird? Perhaps. But it’s what I most look forward to seeing. I’ll be HIGHLY disappointed if it turns out to be TNG2.0.It's gonna feel weird seeing Picard without his original crew.
Leave it to Trekkies to think a series is gonna be shit because of a supposed leak of possible characters.......

But at the same time: what type of a name is "Crusher"? If we're looking back. Especially to give to a Doctor. "Hi, I'm looking for medical assistance." "I'm going to crush you!"
I'd just assumed this was going to be some kind of Trek political thriller with Picard as some kind of Federation head honcho dealing with some crisis. so these kind of characters seemed out of place, except I'm probably wrong so they won't be. I'm sure the show will be fine whatever it is. I just really liked my idea because I loved imagining Old Man Picard grousing at everyone and calling people out on their shit.
Oh god more S31 shit I can already tell. I'll be very, VERY surprised if K'Bar isn't a teenage girl.former intelligence agent.
