TheTCAs begin today in sunny California, and Paramount+ is kicking off the event by boldly going into the final season ofStar Trek: Picardwith a new poster featuring the ensemble cast. We’re just over a month out fromPicardSeason 3’s premiere episode and the new poster shows off the returning cast in stunning blue and gold hues. Naturally, featured most prominently on the poster is the man himself, Jean Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart). He’s immediately flanked by Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), whosemysterious distress callserves as the inciting incident for Season 3, and Geordi LaForge (LeVar Burton), who is set to introducea whole new generationof Starfleet’s best and brightest with his two daughters.
Will Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis) sit at the center of the design, ever inseparable Imzadis. Seven (Jeri Ryan) and Raffi (Michelle Hurd) are also featured side by side, though it’s clear that their roles have reversed in the time we’ve known them with Seven sporting a commander’s uniform and Raffi dressed for espionage. The duo is flanked by Worf (Michael Dorn), who is now a pacifist according to a previously released trailer, andData’s evil twin brother Lore(Brent Spiner).
Finally, the poster also features two starships shooting through space. The Federation vessel is likely the Titan — the ship that Riker captained for several years after leaving the Enterprise. Just a few weeks ago, Season 3 showrunnerTerry Matalasteased theTitan’s musical theme, and it’s believed that this is the ship Seven is currently serving on as a Commander. Hot on the Titan’s heels is the ship belonging to Season 3’s big bad Vadic (Amanda Plummer). Fans of the Kelvin-verse movies will also note that the design of her ship has the same menacing quality as Nero’s ship inStar Trek(2009).
