Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is coming to a close, and the cast is feeling the weight of it. At the recent CCXP Mexico City event, stars Rebecca Romijn, Ethan Peck, Celia Rose Gooding, and Paul Wesley sat down to discuss the upcoming fourth and fifth seasons. Gooding, who plays Uhura, described the upcoming seasons as having “final boss energy,” hinting at the intensity and strangeness to come.
Fans are already buzzing about the show’s impending end, with one Reddit user calling SNW their Trek and eagerly anticipating what’s to come. The cast themselves are feeling the excitement as Season 4 premieres on July 23 on Paramount+. Romijn shared that she believes Seasons 4 and 5 are some of the show’s best work, reflecting the comfort the cast feels in their roles and relationships.
Gooding offered insight into the contrasting vibes of the two final seasons. While Season 4 feels like senior year with high stakes, Season 5 takes on a more celebratory and referential tone, reminiscent of summer camp. Romijn expressed gratitude for the opportunity to properly wrap up each character’s arc and hinted at what lies beyond the series finale.
With Season 4 consisting of 10 episodes airing weekly through September 24, and the final season expected in 2027, fans are eagerly awaiting the culmination of Captain Pike’s era bridging into Captain Kirk’s command. The cast and showrunners had always planned to end the series at this point, using the final episodes to pave the way for the events seen in The Original Series.
As Star Trek: Strange New Worlds nears its conclusion, the anticipation among fans and the cast alike is palpable. With a history of creative risks and compelling storytelling, the show’s final seasons promise to deliver a fitting end to a beloved series. As the countdown to July 23 begins, fans eagerly await the culmination of this epic journey.
