The Walking Dead isn’t the only franchise with multiple major projects on the horizon. The Star Trek universe is also expanding, with Star Trek: Discovery‘s third season and upcoming series Star Trek: Picard both approaching. Cast and crew members from both series will be present during the Star Trek panel, with Star Trek: Discovery taking the stage first. Sonequa Martin-Green, Doug Jones, Mary Wiseman, Anthony Rapp, Wilson Cruz and David Ajala will dive into what future seasons hold.

Star Trek: Picard will also get plenty of attention, with Sir Patrick Stewart, Alison Pill, Isa Briones, Michelle Hurd, Santiago Cabrera, Harry Treadaway and Evan Evagora speaking about the upcoming series. With any luck, fans will get another trailer or a release date for this one. It’s been a while since new information was released, and it’s one of the most-anticipated upcoming shows that will be at NYCC this year.
