The new series is about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, which Paramount greenlit almost exactly a year ago.

But now someone spoke up Producer Alex Kurtzman to say about the current status of the series to report. Accordingly, preparations are in full swing and it will fall soon the starting signal for filming. However, the premiere could take a little longer to arrive than previously thought.
“It could happen that it won't start until 2026. We don't know. Filming will start in late summer, setting up the sets alone is an enormous undertaking. This will be followed by six months in front of the camera, then six to eight Months for post-production. (…) The series will appear. But it will only appear when it is finished.”
Alex Kurtzman didn't give any specific dates, but at least the waiting fans now have one a rough guide for scheduling. Filming will begin in a few months, but will start on the in-house streaming channel Paramount Plus 2025 at the earliest to be expected, perhaps not until the year after next.
