Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

Probably would have been Rogue One since both films came out in 2016.

 

[Tuskin38]

More than likely it is that. Interesting they would debut it in this episode over using the Discovery version. Can't wait to see the inside!

Discovery season 4 and SNW’s productions overlapped. DSC probably needed a prop, and they probably share the same prop house.

Could this the SNW communicator design?

Canon Violation!!!

Spoiler: SKREEEE!!!

The SNW communicators should be made from transparent aluminum/lucite with visible integrated circuitry and dials!

 

[The Wormhole]

That tears it! SNW is a turd, and I can only hate-watch it now. Star Trek is finished. FINISHED!!! May Gene have mercy on us all for this Outrage.

Context of the thing appearing in Disco and why it could be something from SNW:

This travesty is why I think we all agree that all decisions on Trek should be approved by a Council of Trekkers who answer to nobody. Not even CBS. When they say what should be done with the franchise it is final and their wishes are then carried out.

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

But... SNW is set around 5 years after The Cage, right?

 

[Mudd]

Right.

The key is to be one of those 10 people!

I don't think they announced that

 

[Turtletrekker]

I don't think they announced that

The Cage took place in 2254, while Discovery season 2 took place in 2258, with the final scenes of the season taking place three months after Discovery jumped to the future. 2259 seems like a safe bet.

 

[NCC-73515]

Is it clear it'll be set just after Disco S2?

 

[cooleddie74]

My guess is 2259 with Season 2 taking place in 2260 and possibly into 2261.

 

[JoaquinSlowly]

Anson Mount and Akiva Goldsman have both mentioned a few times in interviews and promotions that Pike will be living with the knowledge of his own destiny/future in SNW, so it’s for sure after the events of DSC S02.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Happy birthday to Anson, BTW.

 

[The Wormhole]

Is it clear it'll be set just after Disco S2?

Why wouldn't it be?

 

[Dukhat]

Why wouldn't it be?

I think he meant will it take place immediately after DSC season 2, or will it take place several years after that.

 

[Donald G]

My guess is 2259 with Season 2 taking place in 2260 and possibly into 2261.

I'm thinking that SNW S1 will start ca. 2260-61 to account for Anson Mount's real-world aging and set, prop and costume redesigns. But, I could be wrong.

Depends on how many seasons they want to go. The first season of TOS is set in 2266. Setting the first season of Strange New Worlds in 2259 gives them enough time in the timeline to fit in seven seasons.
