List of episodes

The second season of the American television series Star Trek: Picard features the character Jean-Luc Picard as he and his companions are trapped in the 21st century when reality is broken by Q as part of the ultimate trial for Picard. They must race against time to save the future of the galaxy. The season is being produced by CBS Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment, with Akiva Goldsman and Terry Matalas serving as showrunners.

Patrick Stewart stars as Picard, reprising his role from the series Star Trek: The Next Generation as well as other Star Trek media. Alison Pill, Isa Briones, Evan Evagora, Michelle Hurd, Santiago Cabrera, Jeri Ryan, Orla Brady, and Brent Spiner also star. A second season was in development for months before being officially announced in January 2020, with Matalas joining ahead of the planned departure of first season showrunner Michael Chabon, who remained as a writer. The time travel story was conceived by Matalas and connects to Picard's struggles with his own history. Delayed from a planned June 2020 production start by the COVID-19 pandemic, filming began in California in February 2021 and lasted until September, shooting back-to-back with the third season. The second season features special guest stars reprising their roles from The Next Generation, including John de Lancie as Q.

The season is scheduled to premiere on the streaming service Paramount+ on March 3, 2022, and run for 10 episodes through May 5.

Episodes[]

Michael Chabon wrote two episodes of the season,[1] and Jonathan Frakes returned as a director for multiple episodes.[2][3] Lea Thompson also directed for the season,[4] as did Michael Weaver who directed the tenth and final episode.[5]

Development[]

Executive producer Heather Kadin revealed in October 2018 that Star Trek: Picard was intended to be an ongoing series rather than a limited miniseries;[14] the producers knew from the time Patrick Stewart signed on to star in the series that a second season would definitely be made.[15] Stewart reiterated this in February 2019 and added, "We are set up for possibly three years of this show".[16] That September, Stewart said filming for a second season could begin as early as March 2020.[17] Co-creator Alex Kurtzman confirmed a month later that a second season was "already in the works" ahead of the first-season premiere.[18]

In early December, showrunner Michael Chabon signed an overall deal with CBS Television Studios to create several new series for the studio, beginning with an adaptation of his novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. Chabon would remain with Picard as showrunner until he had to shift focus to Kavalier & Clay at some point in 2020, and he would still be creatively involved in Picard as an executive producer from then.[19] A week later, the series was informally green-lit for a second 10-episode season after being allocated $20.4 million in tax credits by the California Film Commission for the production to continue filming in California. This was the most any television series had been awarded by the program since its expansion in September 2014.[6][20] An official renewal was expected once a showrunner for the second season could be confirmed.[20]

In January 2020, CBS officially announced the second season renewal and revealed that Terry Matalas had joined the series as an executive producer to fill the void that would be created by Chabon's departure. CBS had moved Matalas from their series MacGyver to Picard due to the latter being a high priority for the studio. Matalas had been working with Chabon and the second season's writers for "some time" before the official announcement, and he was expected to take over as showrunner once Chabon left. The series was also reported to have an informal green-light for a third season that would be developed at the same time as the second, so the two could be filmed back-to-back.[21] Chabon expressed regret at having to leave the series, but said he was "every bit as involved" in the development of the second season as he had been on the first, and would be writing episodes for the second season as well as remaining an executive producer.[22] The difference, he explained, was that he would not be running the series day-to-day once filming began.[23]

In March 2020, journalist Marc Bernardin, who began his career as an intern on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, joined Picard as a supervising producer.[24] By the end of that month, filming was set to begin in mid-June.[8][25] These plans were made before the COVID-19 pandemic began.[10] Executive producer Akiva Goldsman said in May 2020 that if filming could not begin in June due to the pandemic, it would begin as soon as possible after pandemic restrictions were lifted.[26] That September, after a deal was made between major studios and Hollywood unions regarding safety measures for productions during the pandemic, director Jonathan Frakes said filming could begin in January 2021 and added that Stewart was eager to begin as soon as possible;[27] filming began in February.[28] Goldsman and Matalas were confirmed as co-showrunners for the season that April.[9]

Writing[]

The second and third seasons tell separate stories, despite being developed together,[29] with Matalas describing the second season's story as being more intimate than the third.[30] Matalas, who is known for the time travel-based series 12 Monkeys, suggested the time travel-heavy story for the second season which takes inspiration from the film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986).[29] Before the end of 2019, Chabon and Goldsman met with Stewart to pitch the season's story,[31] and Kurtzman said in January 2020 that the writers were confident in it. Kurtzman did want the option to adjust the story based on responses to the first season,[32] but Chabon said in March that the second season would not be affected by fans who criticized the first for not meeting their expectations.[23] The full story was broken by then and writing had begun.[1] One lesson learned during the first season, according to Goldsman, was to figure out the ending of the season before they began filming,[33] and production delays due to the pandemic did allow more episodes to be written than usual which meant earlier episodes could subsequently be revised.[26] Writing for the season was completed after filming began in early 2021, and Goldsman said it would not be clear if they were successful in crafting the full story until editing was done.[29]

Following the first-season finale, Chabon and Goldsman said the second season would not ignore the fact that Picard's consciousness is now in a synthetic body,[34] and it would further explore the personal lives of the series' supporting cast,[23] the first season's Romulan refugee storyline,[10] and the technology and culture of Starfleet.[35] Chabon added that the USS Enterprise had not been revisited in the first season because the writers did not want to include it in a throwaway moment. He said a full appearance of the Enterprise was being considered for the second season, but a final decision had not been made by the writers at the end of March 2020.[36] In April 2021, Goldsman said the season would continue to explore issues that come up in the last stage of a person's life, adding that the nature of connectedness would be a major theme; the Star Trek: The Next Generation character Q appears in the season because of his deep relationship with Picard, with Goldsman feeling that Q was the most significant relationship in Picard's life.[33] He added in September that Picard would be struggling with his own history in the season, which tied-in with the time travel plot.[29]

Casting[]

Returning from the first season to star in the second are Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard, Alison Pill as Agnes Jurati, Isa Briones as Soji Asha, Evan Evagora as Elnor, Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker, and Santiago Cabrera as Cristobal "Chris" Rios.[6][7] Harry Treadaway did not return for the second season as Narek.[6][7]

In February 2019, Whoopi Goldberg stated that she would like to reprise her Star Trek: The Next Generation role of Guinan in Picard.[37] That July, Robert Picardo, who portrayed the holographic doctor in Star Trek: Voyager, said CBS had expressed interest in him returning for the second season of Picard.[38] In January 2020, while promoting the first season of the series on the talk show The View, Stewart officially invited co-host Goldberg to appear in the second season, an invitation which Goldberg accepted.[13] Chabon rewatched several key episodes of The Next Generation that feature Guinan in preparation for writing new scenes for Goldberg who he called "an amazing actor".[36] By April, LeVar Burton had discussed reprising his Next Generation role of Geordi La Forge on Picard, and said there was a possibility he would appear in the second season.[39] In July, Picardo praised the series and expressed interest in guest-starring in it in the future, but said there were "absolutely no plans" for him to appear in the second season.[40]

After reprising his The Next Generation role of Data in the first season, Brent Spiner said in March 2020 that he would not do so again as he felt that story was a fitting end to the character. He expressed interest in returning for the second season as Dr. Altan Inigo Soong who he began playing in the first season two-part finale,[11] and Goldsman later admitted that Soong was created in part so Spiner could return for future seasons following Data's death.[35] Chabon expressed interest in first season recurring guest stars Jeri Ryan, Orla Brady, and Jamie McShane returning for the second season, respectively as Voyager's Seven of Nine and Picard's Romulan staff-members Laris and Zhaban. He said a relationship between Seven and Raffi that was teased at the end of the first season would be explored in the second.[10] Ryan said in May 2020 that she was returning for the second season,[8] and she, Brady, and Spiner were confirmed as main cast members in April 2021 when John de Lancie was announced as reprising his Star Trek role of Q in the season.[9]

Annie Wersching was revealed to be cast in the recurring role of the Borg Queen in September 2021, taking over the role from Alice Krige who portrayed the character in the film Star Trek: First Contact (1996) as well as the Voyager series finale. Susanna Thompson also portrayed the character in several episodes of Voyager.[12]

Filming[]

Filming was initially scheduled to begin in mid-June 2020,[8][25] but was delayed to January 2021 by the COVID-19 pandemic.[27][41] In December 2020, Ryan said filming would instead begin on February 1,[42] and on that date she revealed that filming was delayed again.[43] Principal photography began on February 16,[28] in California after the series received tax incentives to continue filming there for the second season.[6] In April, de Lancie said scenes for the second and third seasons were being filmed simultaneously, and explained that the production was following strict guidelines on set due to the pandemic with cast and crew members being regularly tested.[44] The two seasons had one of the largest television series crews at the time with more than 450 crewmembers.[45] The production completed filming for the tenth episode on September 2 and then segued fully into filming the third season.[5]

Music[]

Composer Jeff Russo said in December 2020 that he was beginning to think about the score for the season, adding, "there's a lot going on there".[46] Russo had begun recording the season's score with an orchestra at the Sony Pictures Scoring Stage by December 2021, and completed recording for the season finale on January 12, 2022.[47][48]

Marketing[]

CBS announced in June 2020 that it was participating in the "All In Challenge" to raise money for COVID-19 relief. Money donated to the campaign would go to charities including Feeding America, Meals on Wheels, World Central Kitchen, and No Kid Hungry, and fans who donated could win the chance to visit the series' set, meet Patrick Stewart, and have a walk-on role in an episode.[49] In February 2021, Stewart appeared in a marketing campaign for Super Bowl LV advertising the rebranded streaming service Paramount+.[50] A panel for the season was held during the "First Contact Day" virtual event on April 5, 2021, celebrating the franchise on the fictional holiday marking first contact between humans and aliens in the Star Trek universe. Stewart and de Lancie discussed the season at the panel, which debuted a teaser revealing the focus on time travel and the return of Q.[9] A second teaser was released to coincide with "Capitan Picard Day" on June 16, featuring a look at de Lancie's return and teasing an alternate timeline for the characters. A teaser poster was also released featuring a contemporary-looking Los Angeles.[51] Liz Shannon Miller of Collider highlighted the appearance of Q in the trailer as well as the emphasis on other characters such as Seven of Nine in alternate timeline scenarios.[52] Matthew Jackson at Syfy Wire also highlighted the appearance of Q, saying that it gave him goosebumps,[53] while James Whitbrook of io9 focused on Seven of Nine appearing without her Borg implant and described the teaser poster as "cryptic".[54]

The "Star Trek Day" virtual event on September 8, celebrating the 55th anniversary of the Star Trek: The Original Series premiere, included a panel for the season where a new trailer was revealed.[55] io9's Germain Lussier felt it answered some questions about the season's plot, which he compared to Back to the Future Part II (1989), but also raised more questions. He noted that the time travelling plot allowed the season to film in modern-day Los Angeles in a similar way to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.[56] Joshua Meyer of /Film highlighted the reveal of the Borg Queen as well as the apparent social commentary of the trailer, including where it juxtaposes a "Nuremberg-esque rally" with images of Hong Kong in an apparent reference to the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests. He saw this as evidence of Picard being the most overt of the current Star Trek series in its attempts at social commentary, bringing it more in-line with past Star Trek series. Meyer also compared the totalitarian imagery in the trailer to similar scenes in Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015).[57] The official trailer and key art for the season were released in January 2022 after the premiere date was revealed. Commentators said the trailer covered many of the same concepts as the previous teasers, including Q and time travel, but it also gave the first look at Goldberg's return in the season which was the highlight for many.[58][59] Adam Holmes of CinemaBlend, who believed Guinan was the most important recurring character on The Next Generation, said the trailer "finally gives us our first taste" of Goldberg's role after she publicly agreed to return. He speculated on how the season would explain the fact that Goldberg has aged since she last portrayed Guinan despite her scenes seemingly being set in the past.[59]

Release[]

The season is scheduled to premiere on March 3, 2022, on Paramount+ in the United States,[60] and run for 10 episodes through May 5.[60][6] Each episode of Picard is broadcast in Canada by Bell Media on the same day as the Paramount+ release, on the specialty channels CTV Sci-Fi Channel (English) and Z (French) before streaming on Crave.[61] Amazon Prime Video streams the episodes within 24 hours of their U.S. release in over 200 other countries and territories around the world.[62]
