The animated series Star Trek: Prodigy, previously canceled by Paramount+ during its second season production, has found a new home. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix has obtained the rights to both the previously aired Season 1 and has committed to airing the upcoming Season 2 once its production has concluded.

Star Trek: Prodigy "follows a group of lawless teens who discover a derelict Starfleet ship and use it to search for adventure, meaning and salvation." Season 1 is set to be available for streaming later this year, with Season 2 scheduled for release in 2024.

In June, Paramount+ abruptly canceled Prodigy, taking advantage of tax write-offs. This move was unexpected, given that the series was produced in-house by CBS Studios. Additionally, Star Trek had been positioned as a key component of the streaming service since its CBS All Access days, driven by filmmaker Alex Kurtzman's (creator of Star Trek: Discovery, Short Trek, Picard, and Strange New Worlds) vision to expand the universe and connect with a new generation of Trek fans.
