'September 5' Covers Its Streaming Date

Posted by on
  Have a few Munich knacks. Paramount announced on Monday morning that Best Original Screenplay Oscar and Critics Choice nominee September 5 is headed to Paramount+ tomorrow, Tuesday February 25 in the United States and Canada. International rollout will, as usual, be revealed at a later date, but it never quite gets the coverage the domestic arrival to the platform does. The film was first given a limited release on December 13, and considering Sony Pictures ’s Saturday Night ’s limited release on September 27 was what brought it to Sony’s typical 120-day window for its films when it landed on Netflix on January 25 despite a wide release on October 11, it’s clearly the best way to gauge speed. And for Paramount’s 2024 slate, it’s actually a pretty slow 74 days, as even Sonic the Hedgehog 3 demonstrated a week ago that everyone else tends to be around 60 days, with a few films going 53. Sonic 3  opened a week later on December 20 and arrived on February 18. September 5 ...

'Star Trek: Discovery' To End With Season 5

Posted by on

 


It's almost the end of a long road we've gotten here for another Star Trek series. Paramount+ announced on Thursday that Star Trek: Discovery will be ending with its upcoming fifth season.

Discovery is Paramount+'s longest-running drama, having been the first original series ordered for the service was still known as CBS All Access, where the series would premiere in September 2017 after a linear sneak preview on CBS. It brought a resurgence of Star Trek to television after twelve years since which has grown to five series: the direct spinoff Strange New Worlds, which features Captain Pike's Enterprise crew as portrayed by the actors who began in the roles in Discovery's second season, Picard, the The Next Generation continuation in the midst of its own final season, and the animated Lower Decks and Prodigy, all of which are Paramount+ originals. When Discovery does end, Tooning Out The News, which has since moved to Comedy Central, will be the last CBS All Access original still in production, otherwise this is the last of those originals to end as an original of the platform.

Originally set as a prequel to Star Trek: The Original Series, the events of the second season finale propelled the Discovery crew into the 32nd century and have been figuring life out there. This fifth and final season, announced to be premiering next year in early 2024, sees Captain Burnham (played by Sonequa Martin-Green) and the crew of the USS Discovery solving the mystery of a recently uncovered ancient power deliberately hidden for centuries, going on an epic adventure across the galaxy to find it. Burnham was the franchise's first black woman to be captain. Her returning crew in this final season includes Doug Jones as Saru, Anthony Rapp as Paul Stamets, Mary Wiseman as Sylvia Tilly, Wilson Cruz as Dr. Hugh Culber, David Ajala as Cleveland “Book” Booker, and Blu del Barrio as Adira. New characters this season include Callum Keith Rennie as Rayner, a “gruff, smart Starfleet Captain who holds a clear line between commander and crew;” Eve Harlow as  Moll, a former courier-turned-outlaw with an impressive strategic and witty mind, and Elias Toufexis as her “impulsive and fiercely protective” partner L’ak.

What could possibly be next, now that there are two slots opening up on the plate of the Star Trek franchise? Well, there's a Starfleet Academy series in development, and the even-longer gestating Section 31 series featuring Michelle Yeoh's Emperor Philipa Georgiou. Picard's third and final season is currently streaming its first three episodes. The series finale is set for April 20.
