News? Stories from Dubious Sources

I think it has direct ties to TOS, and they want the likenesses of actors they’ll be using in live action for Strange New Worlds/Short Treks/Section 31/etc.
Kirk could be the prodigy ;)

The Starfleet Academy series logline floating around online suggests it’s set after the events of Discovery Season 3.
Depending on where/when S3 ends, that could be interesting...
 
Starfleet Academy is also described as a Discovery-spinof in the document I saw from Xavi... So I guess it is set in the 32nd century... I wouldn't be surprised if Section31 is set in the 32nd as well. Maybe Kurtzman wants to create his own Star Trek era, just like Berman did with the 24th century.

And that would be a much better idea than a Starfleet Academy series that's yet again shoehorned into '10 years before TOS' or 'the 25th century of PIC.' They could do the world/empire-building that ENT miserably failed at.
 
Writer’s room for Section 31 is almost finished. It won’t be announced to series for a little while longer, for a key reason that will be obvious when it is announced. Section 31 will start filming as soon as Clarice wraps its 13th episode.
 
I actually have some sources, and I can say that some of the stories being reported are and have been true, but not always accurate. I have no idea who is doing the leaking to these otherwise dubious sites though.

RAMA

Key reason being...? Time period? A certain character?

Gotta be Georgiou. She's currently stuck 900 or however many years in the future, so once they bring her back they'll be able to announce Section 31 without spoiling her return to the "present."

That's my prediction anyway.
 
Before Picard S2?
No, that films mostly in California, so should begin production later this year once things re-open.

Having a set time period for Section 31 isn't important, because by all accounts the Wind Cleaver is a timeship. It will likely stay in the future between missions.

The delay is because of the premise and scope of the show, and getting it right.
 
Finally sharing this outside the PMs, because it's probably the right time to tease more about Discovery S3, though I've teased this since January.

It will be explained why Star Trek designs, characters and events can be wildly different between different series, movies, comics, books, games, etc. even between episodes and even when it's the same thing being shown/discussed.

So in a nutshell, this is what the 1701 actually looks like and has always looked like:

and this is how that design changed after a BBC employee from the future went back in time and put an episode of Doctor Who on at the San Francisco Fleet Yards design studio, when they were designing the ship:

It's a low-priority infraction, so the Temporal Agents took their time to fix it. But it's been fixed.

This would make all Star Trek content canon, with any discrepencies being chalked up to incursions that haven't been fixed yet. I imagine this was always assumed by some fans, but it will be properly explained.

One of the rumoured crossover elements with the 2009 movie isn't a rumour. It will be used to explain how they fix the bigger incursions. Temporal agents assassinated Nero and his clan in 2387 before he could go back in time himself to destroy the Kelvin.

This also means TOS, for all intents and purposes, was an incursion. But one where the events that actually happened aren't too different to the incursion.
