Paramount+ has announced that Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is coming to an end, with the series renewed for a fifth and final season. The early renewal comes ahead of the show’s third season, which is set to premiere next month.
Production on the final chapter will begin later this year and consist of six episodes. While the journey is nearing its end, the creators have confirmed the series will conclude on their own terms.
“From the very beginning, Strange New Worlds set out to honor what Star Trek has always stood for – boundless curiosity, hope, and the belief that a better future is possible,” said executive producers Akiva Goldsman, Henry Alonso Myers and Alex Kurtzman. “We’re deeply grateful to Paramount+ for the chance to complete our five-season mission, just as we envisioned it, alongside our extraordinary cast and crew. And to the passionate fans who’ve boldly joined us on this journey – thank you. With three more spectacular seasons ahead for you to see and enjoy, this adventure is far from over.”
A prequel to Star Trek: The Original Series, Strange New Worlds is set a decade before Captain Kirk assumes command of the U.S.S. Enterprise. It follows Captain Christopher Pike, Science Officer Spock, and Number One as they explore new civilizations and push the boundaries of space aboard the iconic starship.
Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds premieres on Paramount+ on July 17, 2025. The fifth and final season is currently in development.
