The season was scheduled to premiere in October 2020, after the season finale of Star Trek: Lower Decks, [89] and Kurtzman explained that the debut was delayed until after Lower Decks had been released because of how much longer post-production on Discovery took during the pandemic. [90]

The Star Trek: Discovery season 3 release date is imminent. With today's star date locked in on CBS All Access and Netflix, we couldn't be more ready to head further into the future than any other Trekkie has travelled before. And, once the weekly episodes are all out, it seems there's more Discovery to look forward to afterwards: writing on season 4 looks like it's already underway.
The Star Trek: Discovery season 3 is Thursday, October 15, 2020 on CBS All Access. Today, in other words. International viewers will need to wait a day later to watch it on Netflix. The 13 episodes will roll out weekly until January 7, 2021.
The wait is over – we can finally announce the #StarTrekDiscovery Season 3 premiere date! Prepare to jump into an unknown future Thursday, October 15th on @CBSAllAccess 🖖🏻 pic.twitter.com/nrZhqy0rc8July 27, 2020

It seems as if writing on a fourth season of Discovery has started, too, even though CBS hasn't formally ordered one yet. In a chat with Gold Derby, Kurtzman mentioned that, despite the challenges presented by Covid-19, "we have actually been able to get quite ahead in scripts for upcoming seasons of Discovery". This at least does mean season 4 is in the planning stage, but given the popularity of the show it's likely CBS will renew it once again.

With Star Trek: Discovery season 3 almost here, we can now see the title sequence, and it's got a few noticeable changes. We can see Michael's longer, braided hair, for a start - when we saw this in the first trailer it suggested the crew reside in this future timeline a long time.
We also see what looks like a 32nd century Starfleet pistols and badges, DOT-7 robots, a red dilithium crystal, Booker's ship, and the wormhole that took our motley crew to their new destination.
As part of Star Trek Day 2020, we got a second glimpse at Discovery season 3, and it shows a galaxy gone wrong. As expected, the Federation isn't faring well this far into the future: it "mostly collapsed" after an event known as "The Burn". That's about the extent of the new plot details we've been given, but the trailer suggests the show has rediscovered its heart and sense of fun.
Let the video above play on after the trailer to watch a panel with Kurtzman, Paradise, and, David Ajala (Nightflyers) who plays new character Cleveland Booker. As reported by Variety at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Kurtzman said Booker or ‘Book’ "is going to be a character that breaks the rules a little bit."
Here are the key cast members we know so far:
•Michael Burnham: Sonequa Martin-Green
•Saru: Doug Jones
•Sylvia Tilly: Mary Wiseman
•Dr Hugh Culber: Wilson Cruz
•Lt. Joann Owosekun: Oyin Oladejo
So, how far did the Discovery go? At SDCC 2019, Kurtzman said: "Obviously we made a pretty radical jump into the future at the end of season two – we're going almost 1000 years into the future in season three, which is crazy. Further than any Trek series has ever gone before." 930 years to the as-yet-unexplored 32nd century, to be specific.
Kurtzman also mentioned at the panel that he’s excited by the prospect of getting to "honor canon but shake it up hugely." For Sonequa Martin-Green, speaking to Syfy Wire, this is an opportunity for the show to boldly go where no one has gone before, properly. Visiting new planets, timelines, and sectors is "the perfect way to define us, because we are new yet familiar."
The first season of Star Trek: Discovery proved a promising start to the prequel series, but it rather lost its way in season 2. Viewers waded through reams of exposition and technical jargon, and it mostly failed to capitalize on the engrossing, galaxy-consuming war of season 1. Hopefully this new Frontier will be the fresh start the series needs in Star Trek: Discovery season 3, without having to lean on familiar characters.
