First STAR TREK: DISCOVERY Season 2 Images Arrive

˙

A week from know, we’ll have learned all the new reveals at Star Trek: Discovery’s big San Diego Comic Con panel, but today we’re getting a tease at next season with two new images released from the season premiere.

Debuting in this week’s Entertainment Weekly Comic Con preview issue, this first image of Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) echoes the on-set filming footage CBS released back in April, with the science officer boarding Captain Pike’s USS Enterprise.

While the EW caption describes this as the “bridge of the Enterprise,” it appears to us more as her entry into Spock’s quarters, as we first mentioned in our Season 2 teaser analysis.

In the accompanying small article, Martin-Green doesn’t reveal much about the second season of Discovery — aside from stating that “it’s going to be phenomenal” — but reiterates previous comments regarding the opportunity to examine Burnham’s life in Sarek, Amanda, and Spock’s home.

“A lot of questions are going to be raised,” she says, “some are going to be answered.”

UPDATE: Here’s a larger photo of “Linus,” played by actor David Benjamin Tomlinson — who played the role of two different Klingons in Season 1.

The second big reveal is our first look at a fully-formed Saurian crew member, named “Linus,” a Starfleet science officer. While we don’t yet know the name of the actor under that alien headpiece — though we’re certain it isn’t another “Javid Iqbal” situation — this makes the first appearance of a Saurian in Star Trek since 1979’s Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Actor Cedric Taporco as a Saurian in “The Motion Picture.”

We saw the Saurian makeup prosthetic design in progress back in April’s teaser as well, where Discovery’s Emmy Award-nominated makeup department head James MacKinnon was applying it to the actor in question.

The newest issue of Entertainment Weekly,f featuring these images, is in stores now.
