OK, so possibly, if taken out of context.... , Willy's acting may seem a tad, unmmmm, acty. But seriously, if it weren't for the original cast, they wouldn't be remaking yet another version in 2017.

Ah so when you say 'ahead' like the Enterprise series, you mean BEFORE Kirk and Spock? The spacecraft in these previews and uniforms look more advanced. The 'update' referred to a cast member to play the Vulcan on board, Sarek, as in Spock's father, so that must be before Tiberius.
Thanks GPIDEAL, looks like I'm good to go, have Space and obviously CTV on Satellite.
I'll bet all of the younger dudes here are woundering what all the fuss is about.
Hopefully it is done "right"
FAST
They wasted a few million by having to rebuild sets 3 times at the studio as a result production was delayed several months. They also had to deal with a mass shortage of carpenters during the pre production set build.
Thanks, when I first heard about the show last year it was going to be on their pay site only.
After the fiasco with Axanar, I wasn't too keen about this new series. I know paramount wants to make a profit, but it goes against the ideals of ST and screwing over fan-made productions is just a huge F-you to the people who have supported this franchise.
According to the video below, Jason Isaacs will not be the lead character in the show, even though he's Captain of the Discovery, he is part of the supporting cast.
The leading actor will be Sonnequa Martin-Green a Lieutenant Commander aboard the Discovery who will go by the title "number 1".
It's the first time a black female will lead the cast of a Star Trek series. She is known mostly for her role in the Walking Dead series.
The Star Trek Discovery series will be set 10 years before Kirk et al embark on their 5 year mission.
The Star Trek Enterprise series from about 2001 to 2005 was set about 100 years before Kirk's five year mission.
The first season involving one pilot episode and 12 follow up episodes will be serialized.
There will be no stand alone episodes that are neat and self contained like an egg.
In other words there will be one extended story arc where every episode is the lead in for the next like Battle Star Galactica was in the 2000's or like Game of Thrones is now.
That's a nice change in my opinion.
The series will likely start airing around September 2017, although that target is still if flux.

I've only seen a few episodes of Walking Dead, mostly involving Negan, is she the girl with the rasta locks and samurai sword?
According to IMDB, Jason Isaac is top billed. You don't bring an actor of his calibre into the franchise and make him second banana. Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) is also in the cast, her character has a Rumanian name, that could work Ms Yeoh is a Malaysian mix.
Whatever wastage Pinewood may have incurred, the neighbourhood has benefited handsomely. Leslieville used to be a rundown part of town and somewhat of a drug haven. That's changed now that Guillermo Del Toro has a home there.
EDIT: I didn't watch the above video, "and sadly he happens to be gay", WTF? A gay character has already been covered in the franchise, the humanity of ST is what separates it from Star Wars. The uploader has no integrity.

Why Michelle Yeoh as a Rumanian works.
After Genghis Khan died, his son Batu went on a campaign to conquer Europe. He defeated the Kievan Rus and the Poles then dealt a crushing defeat to the Holy Roman Empire in Hungary. Briefly Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and most of Rumania came under his control (he never got around to Vienna or Bucharest). He pulled back to Russia after the death of his brother Ogodai Khan, a new Great Khan had to be elected. Judging by the racial mix, he was just as prolific at franking as his father.
Exhibit A: Hungarian cellist Janos Starker.
