The second season of Star Trek: Discovery will finally premiere this January and the show's new trailer certainly suggests that Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) will be struggling with an unexpected reunion. Not surprisingly, the official synopsis for Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 confirms that a strange being will complicate things for everyone.
CBS All Access has released the new season's description, which hints at the larger role that Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) will play. In addition to that, Michael's brother is set to be a truly important character in the series.
The synopsis for Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 reads as follows:
The Season 2 trailer certainly suggests that there is some friction between Michael and Spock (Ethan Peck). At one point, Michael confronts her brother, saying that she risked everything to help him. "You assume every burden is yours alone," Spock responds. We're certainly looking forward to seeing how this exchange plays out in the series.
Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 will premiere on CBS All Access on January 17, 2019.
