Key Takeaways

  • Star Trek: Strange New Worlds confirmed for season 4, with production starting March 2025.

As a dedicated Star Trek fan with a lifelong passion for all things space and science fiction, I can hardly contain my excitement about the upcoming fourth season of Strange New Worlds (SNW). Jess Bush’s confirmation that production will start in March 2025 feels like a beacon of hope amidst the cold winter nights.

Fans of “Star Trek” are excitedly counting down the days until the third season of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” scheduled for a 2025 premiere, and are eager for updates about the show’s future. Fortunately, Jess Bush, who portrays Nurse Christine Chapel in the series, has shared some long-awaited insights about its continuation.

Paramount+ confirmed a fourth season for “Strange New Worlds” in April 2024, but further details have been scarce from the studio since then. However, some intriguing hints about the upcoming season have emerged from the cast members themselves. For instance, Captain Christopher Pike’s actor, Anson Mount, posted on Instagram that the “SNW” cast would be returning to Toronto for filming in the spring following the renewal announcement. More recently, Paul Wesley, who plays James T. Kirk, mentioned in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that he would be back on the “SNW” set in February 2025.

Now, Bush has also added his voice to the mix. In a recent interview with PIX11 News about her art installation “Bee Totem,” now visible in New York City, Bush announced that filming for season 4 will commence in the spring, specifically starting in March 2025.

When Can Fans Expect Season 4?

Currently, I haven’t received any formal updates about the release date for season 4. Yet, based on past production timelines, we can make some informed predictions.

The third season of SNW started filming in December 2023 and ended in May 2024, making the production duration approximately five months. Previous seasons also took about five to six months to complete. Typically, the cast of SNW has begun filming in Toronto during late winter or early spring, wrapping up around mid-summer. If this trend continues for season 4, then production should finish up around July or August, as it has in previous seasons.

Absolutely, wrapping up filming doesn’t automatically mean the show is ready for airing. There’s plenty of post-production tasks to tackle, such as editing and possible re-shoots. Consequently, there’s usually a significant timeframe between when production concludes and the new season’s debut.

Despite wrapping up production for season 2 in the spring of 2022, it didn’t air until mid-July of the following year. Typically, there isn’t a substantial gap between post-production completion and release; however, the broadcast of season 2 was pushed back due to the SAG/AFTRA strike in 2023.

For Season 3, there will be a shorter span from post-production to its debut, as it’s anticipated to air early in 2025. While an exact date hasn’t been announced, considering Paramount+’s historical release pattern, we can expect Season 3 to premiere within the first quarter of that year.

Based on all we know, it seems likely that the premiere of season 4 for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds might occur around spring or summer of 2026. However, keep in mind that unforeseen events could potentially affect either the production or release timeline. Still, at least fans can look forward to additional episodes of the series once they’ve finished watching and rewatching season 3.
