Enterprise in the years before Captain Kirk. In this new series, the “Star Trek” franchise returns to the traditional planet-of-the-week space-exploration format of the original run. “Strange New Worlds” also stars Rebecca Romijn as Number One, Ethan Peck as Science Officer Spock, and Tony-nominated Celia Rose Gooding as Nyota Uhura. The new series debuts on May 5.
