"For 50 years, the 'Star Trek' series have been a global sensation, spanning generations and audiences of all ages. It's an honor to welcome Sir Patrick Stewart back for what is sure to be another world-class extension of the historic franchise," said Armando Nu�ez, President and Chief Executive Officer, CBS Global Distribution Group. "We look forward to working with the team at Amazon Prime Video to bring this next chapter of the incredible 'Star Trek' franchise to its passionate international fan base."

In the U.S., the series will be available exclusively on CBS All Access, CBS' direct-to-consumer digital subscription video on-demand and live streaming service, which is available on all major digital platforms including Amazon Prime Video Channels and Fire TV.

Alongside Stewart, the series will also star Alison Pill ("The Newsroom"), Harry Treadaway ("Penny Dreadful"), Isa Briones ("American Crime Story: Versace"), Santiago Cabrera ("Salvation"), Evan Evagora (newcomer), and Michelle Hurd ("Blindspot").
