Rios isn't the pilot, he's the captain of La Sirena.

Shocking end twist: Picard himself is an android.
Fallout 4 called...they want their story back.
So, Picard wedding scene in the STP pilot episode...got it...who's he marrying?
Beverly Crusher, hopefully
But at this point, I'm sure they were already married; and Picard probably killed and buried her somewhere in the vineyard, rather than get diovorced and give her half... 
Wow ... more than a bit intense in that face...New promo featuring Musiker:

Three out of four ain't bad.
Captain can pilot a ship. And here does.
They've intercut those two pieces, but I doubt they go together. I think the La Sirena ends up being the TOS Romulan Bird of Prey we've seen in a couple of the trailers.
I think we already know they won't totally discard the Discovery aesthetic. They've put too much money into it.
Interesting very loose recurring parallels between the four main new rogue crew members of La Sirena.
and the characters of Gene Roddenberry's original 1964 StarTrek pitch:
Side by side bellow.
-(Obviously the pitch description of "Number one became Majel Barrett's character in the pilot ep, then for the series some aspects went to the revamped Spock, and the "Dark...Nile Valley" aspect to Uhura, although as per the new series set up, she is analogues of his once new #1 in Raffi Musiker:
-The navigator José Ortega character was dropped from the pilot, (interesting (to me) Roddenberry envisioned a latino lead in the first crew in 1964, yet the studio didn't actually bring it about till over 30 years after with arguably Chakotay and B'elanna). For the new series the analogue is now pilot Chris Rios.
Continued: The emotional Spock expressing "catlike curiosity over anything alien" which we first saw in the smiling emotional Spock of the pilot episode, was obviously dropped for series, and Spock was instead merged with the personality of the removed Number One of the pilot. Yet the "emotional" and somewhat curious catlike Vulcans would be the later revealed Romulans, who we see in Elnor in the new series.
And the Yeoman "colt" pretty much appeared as is in the pilot, other than maybe the "researcher" aspect, only visually similar to Agnes Jurati, so far described as “a researcher, and someone ‘who’s confused with her place in the world.'
Do the four "new" rogue crew members seem to be a somewhat re-purposed throwbacks to Roddenberry's 4 original crew pitch?
Coincidence? :
This looks like it lines up surprisingly well. I'll look out for these similarities when the series premieres to see how much of this is the case. But I'm leaning toward I think you just uncovered a really good find. If Larry Chabon really has been a huge Trekkie since the '70s, it might not be a coincidence.
I don't think so, the first trailer showed a "Freighter" (La Sirena?) entering the Borg cube, not the Romulan BOP.

We'll have to wait and see!
God knows where that money has gone though. They've been overpaying people it seems.

It definitely isn't my favorite Trek look. Though I guess I could be a bit biased because I don't think the show is very good.
The La Sirena will be a brand new 'Hero ship' for Picard.We'll have to wait and see!
I really rather doubt They will make it a Romulan BOP.
I doubt it.
