Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is over as the series has officially wrapped, with Anson Mount, Paul Wesley, and the show's key creatives sharing emotional goodbyes. The fifth and final season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has completed filming its final 6 episodes in Toronto before the Christmas holidays.
Paramount+ renewed Star Trek: Strange New Worlds for a shortened final season when Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 premiered in June. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 4 completed filming in July and is expected to premiere in 2026, with Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 5 to follow in 2027 on Paramount+.
On his Instagram, Anson Mount, who played Captain Christopher Pike, fittingly gave a final farewell to Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Sharing a photo of Captain Pike's empty ready room, Mount announced that "at approximately 11:15pm EST, the last "cut" was called by Mr. Akiva Goldsman. Many tears were shed..."
Anson also spoke about his pride in his work and what he learned as an actor and a leader working on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. See Mount's post below:

Kirk.
For the cast and crew, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' 'five-year mission' is over, and what happens next is unclear. There's no news on whether executive producers and co-showrunners wish for a spinoff starring Paul Wesley as Captain Kirk, dubbed Star Trek: Year One, will happen on Paramount+.
For audiences, however, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds still has two more seasons to come on Paramount+. Filming so far in advance means Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has banked 16 new episodes that will keep the Starship Enterprise flying, even as the cast and crew move on to new adventures.
