Ah, missed that. Sorry and thanks.

Yes - an obvious opportunity to generate publicity, and now there's a set airdate I think we'll see much more detail in the trailer, and probably the first shot of Discovery herself.

And with all the actors attending presumably some of them would appear in the trailer as well.

VR DSC would be interesting.

I am looking forward to seeing Anthony Rapp's character, I am curious on how they are going to depict a guy who studies fungus in space.

Scripts are often written with trailer lines in mind, I'm not quite sure you can do that with the study of fungus.

Remind people he's a real fun guy?

Oh dear. There's not mushroom for bad jokes in this thread.

In other news, some particularly weird, fabulous shit on #StarTrekDiscovery today. With THE @jonathansfrakes directing, no less. No wonder.

Do we know what episode they're onto yet? Perhaps rounding out the first eight?

i think i heard somewhere that they were a little under or a little over half way through filming episodes and that was just around the writer's strike scare.
