Strange New Worlds Is A Better Kirk Story Than The One J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek Rushed Through

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds tells a better Kirk story than how J.J. Abrams' Star Trek (2009) rushed through James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) becoming Captain of the USS Enterprise. The highly anticipated Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 premieres July 17 on Paramount+ after a 2-year wait. Strange New Worlds season 3 continues the genre-bending voyages of the Starship Enterprise commanded by Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount), with occasional guest appearances by Lieutenant James T. Kirk (Paul Wesley).
