New 'Star Trek' Series in Development

Star Trek is once again poised to be on the small screen, thanks to CBS TV Studios. Alex Kurtzman (Fringe, Sleepy Hollow), who will serve as executive producer, has been meeting with potential writers over the last few months.

The new series is set to debut January 2017 and will introduce new characters, while continuing the theme of 'seeking out new life and new civilizations.'
