Star Trek: Picard Season 4: Will More Episodes Ever Release?

Star Trek Picard

Does the possibility exist for Star Trek: Picard Season 4 ? And can the franchise continue to feature its iconic title character and his crew?

After it seemed like the voyage of Patrick Stewart 's Jean-Luc Picard had come to a close following appearances in four Star Trek movies from 1994 to 2002, Star Trek: Picard debuted on Paramount+ in 2020 with Stewart back in the franchise. 

The most recent season saw Patrick Stewart reunite with Jonathan Frakes, Gates McFadden, Brent Spiner, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, and LeVar Burton, all of whom reprised their Next Generation characters.

Now, with that series having released its third season in 2023, could there be room for Picard’s journey to continue?

Season 4 for Star Trek: Picard?

First things first, Season 3 of Star Trek: Picard was repeatedly billed as being the last outing for the show.

Now, just because it was stated that the third season served as the show’s finale, doesn’t necessarily mean that a Season 4 will not happen. Producer Akiva Goldsman has gone on record (via TrekMovie ) saying that Season 3 needn’t be the final one if Stewart was game for more:

“Yeah, I think that think three [seasons] is the story as imagined. For me, as many seasons as Patrick Stewart wants to do, that’s as many seasons of Picard there should be.“

However, Goldsman said this in 2021, ahead of the Season 2 premiere, so his comments could possibly be outdated. Furthermore, from the outset, Star Trek: Picard was indeed envisioned and planned as a three-season series.

But Sir Stewart himself indicated in January 2023 (via Deadline ), prior to Season 3, that he would be open for a potential Season 4:

“There is still enormous potential for matters in what we can do and there are doors left open and we didn’t close all of them,”

At this point though, it seems unlikely that Star Trek: Picard will continue on for more seasons in its current form. But by no means does the story have to end.

The Continuing Adventures of Jean-Luc Picard

Never one to rest on his laurels, Patrick Stewart has made no attempt at hiding the fact that he would like to do more Star Trek .

In fact, in his recently published memoir Making It So , Stewart included the following passage (via Time Magazine ), intently expressing his eagerness to star in a Picard movie:

“I am gently pushing Paramount to let us do one single ' Picard' movie. Not a ' Next Generation' movie, as we have already done four of those. This would be an expansion and deepening of the universe as we’ve seen it in ' Star Trek: Picard .' I’ve discussed this with Jonathan, Brent, and LeVar, and they are all game. Jonathan is my first choice to direct it.”

Frakes, who of course played Jean-Luc’s first officer Will Riker, helmed two Trek features already, 1996’s First Contact and 1998’s Insurrection . As such, he is heavily invested in the Star Trek universe both behind and in front of the camera.

Another movie led by Picard, Riker, and crew is a fine idea, but Picard Season 3 showrunner Terry Matalas has his eyes set on a different prize.

A New Legacy for the Next Generation Crew

Speaking to SFX Magazine (via TrekMovie ) in January, Akiva Goldsman acknowledged the potential for elements of Star Trek: Picard to become pieces of future standalone content:

“Are there things in ‘Picard’ that could be their own storytelling arc? Or their own storytelling spines? Yeah, for sure. Is that the direction of the expansion of the Star Trek Universe? That turns out to be above my pay grade.”

Additionally, Terry Matalas has not been shy with his desire to spin Picard off into another series which, in his mind, would be titled Star Trek: Legacy . This series would pick up with the crew of the USS Enterprise-G, with Jeri Ryan’s Captain Seven of Nine in command.

Picard concluded with Seven in the Enterprise’s captain’s chair. Also along for the ride was Jean-Luc and Beverly Crusher’s son Jack, as well as several new other characters introduced in Star Trek: Picard .

What’s more is that Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, and more have thrown their names onto the pile of potential guest stars who could pop into this new spin-off.

Frakes spoke on a continuation of what was laid down in Picard back in late 2022 (via Den of Geek ):

“As you’ll see by the end of the season, it’s ripe for a continuation of some version of what we’ve established in the show. Not more ‘Picard’, but certainly, ‘Next Gen’ is alive and well.”

So, Legacy would be set up to follow this new crew and their voyages aboard the Enterprise in the 25th Century. Only, it’s currently far from greenlit. Paramount+ is running a business with its streaming service and there’s only so much money to go around for new Trek projects.

However, given the enormously positive audience response to Picard Season 3, getting Star Trek: Legacy made seems like a no-brainer. No official word on its development has been spoken though.

The entirety of Patrick Stewart’s 36-year run as Jean-Luc Picard (including Star Trek: The Next Generation , Star Trek Generations , Star Trek: First Contact , Star Trek: Insurrection , Star Trek: Nemesis , and all three seasons of Star Trek: Picard ) can be streamed on Paramount+.

This is because Patrick Stewart, who plays the lead character of Jean-Luc Picard has recently acknowledged the strenuous nature of a contemporary television production schedule. Moreover, Patrick Stewart developed an undiagnosed heart disease while taking part in the three-season production of Star Trek: Picard, after which he was rushed to the hospital. He then underwent a major surgery to save his life.

However, Stewart has also expressed interest in making one final film alongside the Star Trek: The Next Generation cast. Moreover, Stewart has also expressed interest in appearing in Star Trek: Picard producer Terry Matelas’ new spin-off series, which has been dubbed Star Trek: Legacy. Interestingly, the events of Legacy were set up in the Star Trek: Picard Season 3 episode “The Last Generation”.

Star Trek: Picard’s cast includes Patrick Stewart as Jean Luc-Picard, Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker, Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine/Annika Hansen, Alison Pill as Dr. Agnes Jurati, Evan Evagora as Elnor, Santiago Cabrera as Cristobal “Chris” Ross, Brent Spiner as Dr. Adam Song, Isa Briones as Soji Asha, and Jonathan Frakes as Captain William T. Riker, among other cast members.

Where is Star Trek: Picard Season 4 coming out?

Star Trek: Picard Season 4 isn’t confirmed to be released on Paramount Plus.

The official synopsis for Star Trek: Picard reads:

“Set twenty years after the events of Star Trek Nemesis, we follow the now-retired Admiral Picard into the next chapter of his life.”

Star Trek Picard : Une saison 4 en préparation ? Les indices qui sèment le doute

La série a été acclamée par les fans depuis ses débuts en 2020, avec Patrick Stewart reprenant son rôle emblématique de Jean-Luc Picard, ancien capitaine de l’USS Enterprise. Après trois saisons captivantes, les fans sont impatients de savoir si la saison 4 de Star Trek Picard sera commandée .

La troisième saison s’est achevée le 21 avril 2023 sur Amazon Prime Video, alors est-ce qu’une suite est envisageable ? Il semblerait que cela soit possible d’après l’un des acteurs mais Amazon n’a pas encore confirmé la rumeur !

Toutes nos informations sur la date de sortie de la saison 4 de Star Trek Picard

Pour le moment, aucune confirmation officielle n’a été donnée concernant la saison 4 de Star Trek: Picard . Cependant, l’un des acteurs a évoqué la possibilité d’une nouvelle saison, ce qui a ravivé l’espoir des fans. Les décideurs de la série pourraient attendre de voir les retours et les audiences de la troisième partie avant de prendre une décision.

Patrick Stewart a laissé entendre qu’une saison 4 est possible , à condition de trouver une bonne idée pour le scénario. Cette déclaration a ravivé l’espoir des fans qui attendent avec impatience de découvrir la suite des aventures de Jean-Luc Picard et de son équipage.

Les fans de la série ont déjà exprimé leur désir de voir de nouveaux personnages emblématiques de l’univers Star Trek apparaître dans la série. De plus, certains aimeraient voir la relation entre Jean-Luc Picard et d’autres personnages, tels que Seven of Nine (jouée par Jeri Ryan), continuer à évoluer.

Les spectateurs ont également fortement apprécié la façon dont la série aborde des questions d’actualité et espèrent que cela se poursuivra dans une éventuelle saison 4 de Star Trek Picard .

Quelle date de sortie pour la saison 4 de Star Trek Picard sur Amazon Prime Video ?

Il est difficile de prédire une date de sortie potentielle pour la saison 4 de Star Trek: Picard , étant donné que le renouvellement n’a pas encore été confirmé par la plateforme de streaming. Si la série devait obtenir une suite, il est plus que probable que la production démarrerait dans les mois suivant l’annonce.

Star Trek: Picard Season 3 Might Not Be the Final Season After All: ‘There Are Doors Left Open,’ Patrick Stewart Says

All you Trekkies out there mourning the upcoming final season of Star Trek: Picard : There may be new life (and new civilizations) out there after all.

Season 3 of Picard has already been announced as the final season , but executive producer Alex Kurtzman now says the show could actually continue. “When we started the series, Patrick [Stewart] and we all talked about really wanting it to just be three years, feeling like we could really tell a complete story with the season you’re now seeing as our endpoint,” he told reporters at the Television Critics Association winter press tour on Monday. “That being said, anything is possible. If a show blows the doors off the place, as we’re certainly hoping it will, and we’re very, very proud of Season 3, who knows?”

So would Patrick Stewart be open to returning for another season as Jean-Luc Picard? “If we can maintain the work that we did on Seasons 1, 2 and 3 of Picard , then absolutely, yes,” Stewart says. “Because there is still enormous potential for narrative in what we’ve been doing, and there are doors left open, still. We didn’t close all of them.”

Season 3 — premiering Thursday, Feb. 16 on Paramount+ — brings back Stewart’s Next Generation co-stars Michael Dorn (Worf), LeVar Burton (Geordi La Forge) and Gates McFadden (Dr. Beverly Crusher). Their fellow TNG alums Jonathan Frakes (Riker) and Marina Sirtis (Troi) will return as well after a Season 1 guest spot, with Brent Spiner returning as… not Data, but his android brother Lore.

Would you want to see Picard return for another mission after Season 3? Beam down to the comments and share your thoughts.

They could always hire Ruin Johnson to write and direct a fourth season where Picard is just in a coma.

Then why oh why in the everloving frak would they hire him? Compared to Catty Kennedy, the Trek folks are running a beautifully tight ship.

True. Star Trek is smart enough to stay away from Ruin Johnson, destroyer of franchises.

They got Abrans and Kurtzman so they win the stupidity wars easily.

Bring it. I have enjoyed Picard and missed the TNG folks so much. It will be a fun reunion.

Did not mean to be a response.

this, too, isn’t meant to be a response.

Why can’t they combine more of the other series characters of Voyager, Deep Space Nine and others? Lots of possibilities. Its all Science fiction.

Naw. It’ll be revealed that the crew of Archer’s Enterprise is testing a holodeck prototype and Picard S1-3 were all a long simulation.

HAHAHAHAHAHA – They would totally deserve that.

and Moriarty ends up actually being a living being all along! TNG was on the desk in a memory matrix one level up. Matrix you say?? “…it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself”

super pumped for Picard 3

I hope they make something to follow on from season 3 of Star Trek Picard because I have thoroughly enjoyed this series with the next generation crew

Um he is now in an artifical body would be kinda hard for him to be in a coma.

So looking forward to season 3. If they want to continue afterwards, I’ll be there for it.

I’d be perfectly content with a Seven & Raffi spin-off (though I’d prefer a tighter 8-episode season).

a Seven & Raffi spin-off?

Could Seven suckle seacow milk like a grumpy hermit? And could Raffi be in a coma? That’s how Ruin Johnson would do it.

Kid all you want, but Rian Johnson’s Knives Out movies were fantastic.

No, they weren’t, but I’m glad you like them.

I preferred the second to the first but both movies were excellent. Top notch.

Glass Onion was beyond stupid and made no sense. Screenplay was awful and an autopsy would’ve honed in the fact she died my suspicious means. Police wouldve checked out her emails right after and found motive and suspects. Case solved. Just so dumb.

So were his Breaking Bad episodes, but they weren’t watched by immature man-children.

^ Ain’t it the truth, @TheTruth. You’ve got to wonder at the mental acuity of someone who posts four times about a person who has zero connection to any Star Trek franchise.

I would watch it…

Yes please!

Seven and Raffi would be cool. Although I’d much rather see Seven in her Fenris Rangers days. Also, more Rios, but that’s a long shot considering how season 2 ended. Likewise for Elnor.

I’d be content with any tv show that had ALL seven of nine content! Go Jeri Ryan.

That awesome news.

I don’t mean to spoil anything, but it’s been a couple of years, so here it goes… Picard is dead. He died in season 1. His story is over. How are the writers of the show the only people who don’t remember this?! I really don’t think that many Trekkies are upset about this show ending. There are rumors that season 3 might he ok, but what we have had so far is nothing short of an abomination. Putting aside whether or not it qualifies as Star Trek (nope), the writing has been horrific. The acting has been awful. Visually, it has been… it’s just bad, in my opinion. I’m sure that some people like it, and I hope it goes on forever, for your sake. But to me, Star Trek is dead. It kills me to not even have hope for a future for the franchise, but it’s just done. I don’t see how it comes back from the past few years.

100%. He died and then the writing was so vague / bad that it didn’t really have any ramifications. Season 2 was just terrible by the end. I wish the series arc plan and scripts had been given to the Orville team, at least they can write lol

Yeah, it was a really sad and pathetic way for an iconic character to die. He withers away, and then he isn’t even mourned. They just copy and paste him onto an android body and his friends completely forget that he died in the first place. As you say, The Orville team would have done better. Black Mirror did a story like this better. I don’t see how any TNG fan can watch the show without feeling extremely sad about this. Even crappy Nemesis smacked us in the face with the fact that B4 wasn’t Data just because his memories were backed up.

But his android body is programmed to wither and die of old age when his time comes. Picard did not want to go past his life expectancy. So in effect he is not dead but in a body of his choosing till his rightful time to die. So I consider him still alive. he hasn’t blinked an eye about his own body in the show and I am sure Patrick Steward Approves.

I’m not a boomer. Have people forgotten what that means? Because saying it to someone who isn’t a boomer doesn’t even come across as an insult. If you’re not going to counter my comments, at least just call me stupid or something that might actually insult me. As it is, it seems like you sent your comment to the wrong person. Do you need directions to an actual boomer’s location? Check Facebook. They probably have a lot of boomers over there. Or just retire the line entirely.

Lol. Um. No, not a boomer lol. Probably younger than you lol

Did you ever consider that ‘The New Frontier’ was responding to ‘Kyle’ and not you? My kids do that a lot. They think everything is being said to them. There’s a phrase for that…

I totally disagree with everything you have said. I have several hundred students who adore Picard. It appeals to a wide audience and the seasons have been emotional and given depth and more meaning to the character. A season 4 would be absolutely loved.

So it’s not perfect, Kyle. Nothing will ever be like the original, and you shouldn’t be comparing to the original.

Just enjoy the fact that Jean Luc Picard is here once again for us to enjoy. Who cares if he “died” in season 1? Besides, what is the definition of death in that future, anyway?

Glass half full, my friend.

But Picard isn’t here for us to enjoy. He died, and nobody cared enough about him to be bummed out about it. And sorry, but the writers seem to have gone out of their way to brutalize the legacy of the franchise. What they did to Icheb (not even played by the same actor) was disgusting, and not in a “compelling storytelling” way. Seven doesn’t even resemble Seven of Nine in terms of character (though Jeri is beautiful as always). Plots make absolutely no sense. The characters are horrible (and sometimes tend to murder people in cold blood)… This show has not one single redeeming quality. I’m not looking for perfection. TNG wasn’t perfect. I’m just looking for sober writers who have actually seen Star Trek before.

I hate to break it to you, but Picard is not dead. Just his body is dead. His soul was transferred into an artifical body. So no he is not dead. Just his physical body died….. Put that in your pocket.

This update is certainly better than all the cancellation news lately

Looks dumb. TNG was a show about an idealistic future that thoughtfully talked about issues and problems. This just looks inane. Loved TNG, but 21st century television is just plain stupid.

Even in the main show, there were forces that tried to disrupt that idealistic approach and turn it into something darker and more militaristic. It would make sense for those voices to get louder (just like in real life) and for folks to have to continue to fight to uphold that idealism, especially after so many battles where the Federation had to become more war-like to survive. In the same way that the TNG crew stood up against the admiral (and most of Starfleet) in Insurrection, it would be a great starting off point for storytelling.

I hope season 3 fixes the issues that made season 2 not work for me – mostly that there didn’t seem to be much of a “hurry” for anything. Everyone just stood around talking and not acting or trying to solve things. It felt like bad soap opera, to me. I love emotional storytelling, but the Picard arc felt quite hollow and badly written to me. Let alone the performance issues in the flashbacks. Overall, there was so much treading water!

I really looked forward to Picard bc it was a post TNG-DS9-Voy show. Picard being retired but still having to galavant around the cosmos bc thats who Picard is. Not happy unless hes exploring. I liked the potentional of S1, where Picard was dealing with some of his past in a todays world, as an old man reflecting, trying to make things right before he passed. All while introducing new characters.

Did not like S2 however. His childhood could of been dealt with in episodes as a reflection of a modern times story, not a time warp back to the past trying not to step on the butterfly. A whole season of it was boring and I did not like the way they discarded the majority of his new crew. Im sure some will disagree.

Im am looking forward to S3. Although it sounds like a TNG reunion ssn for which im not keen on. I really like that we get some post TNG updates on the characters tho. I hope they mention or have cameos for some DS9-Voy characters as well although im sure they wont or will be very minor.

I would really like a spinoff after this series if they do not continue on with it. Does not have to be with past characters. Some new characters just set in this timeline exploring new worlds and civilizations, or even revisiting some, would be nice, who run into a few TNG-DS9-Voy characters along the way. (I guess Prodigy is this in some ways but not what im after).

I really hate prequels and reboots. Why every writer wants to re-write whats already been done perplexes me. Cant figure out original ideas I guess. I prefer sequels or spinoffs myself. Move on, expand.

But thats just me. Im sure we’ll get a Picard when hes 20 series before long. They already cant get past Kirk after all yet the Federation spans thousands of years.

Can’t wait.

I have not seen any seasons of Picard. After I read they killed certain characters and the whole storyline of Picard dying and not really being exactly dead, it didn’t sound interesting to me. I’m curious about season 3, however there’s a huge rumor about it that doesn’t make sense. If they go that route, it really would be like a soap opera.

TNG was the series that got me hooked into Star Trek. Enjoyed DS9 and Voyager as well. In order to fix it, someone has to change the timeline, bring back the characters that were killed off in season 1. Timeline should also fix season 3 soap opera storyline.

what rumor?

Rumor is Dr.Crusher and Picard finally had a romance. no one has seen her for 20 years and she’s keeping a secret that makes Picard mad and happy at the same time. She got pregnant and had his son.

Yes absolutely I find Patrick steward to be 1 of the best actor not just for star trek he is brilliant. I would love to see more seasons of picard.

Yes, I would. I love STAR TREK: Picard. So, why are you getting rid of a TV show for some reality show that’s scripted?

Absolutely. I adored Next Gen and Picard has been absolutely magnificent.

Definitivamente ,Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!

I’ll watch Picard as long as Stewart wants to/can do the show. Sooner, rather than later, as Mr. Stewart is in his golden years.

I was so excited when this and all the other versions of Star Trek came out and I hope they keep going with Picard, I’ll be watching until I’m dead

I really hope we will have another season of Picard. Every year I binge all of the Star Trek series starting with the original. It always feels like going home. The new series – both Discovery and Picard have become the perfect finishing touches to my visits.

Of course want him to continue and all the other stars . Loved seeing Wesley on last one he is a time traveler. Great on jeopardy. I loved seeing Whoopi but I do love always watching her. The show can continue as long as many stars in the universe . Star Trek should never die it’s life to think about a bright future.

I definitely want Star Trek Picard to continue past season 3. I hope there are multiple more seasons.

Yes yes yes to season 4..5..6..Bring in all our old favorites from all the Trek franchises!! Loving it so much I don’t 2ant it to end!! There’s too few good Scifi series on tv today! We Trekkies NEED another season!!!

I’m not a trekkie but I am a fan of great content. From a non critic view, this show feels like what firefly could have been. Patrick Stewart demands my attention when he takes the screen, and nothing pleases me more than a great story with an amazing surrounding cast like you have with this series. Please continue this story, open it to more than just paramount (create partnerships with other content suppliers), and I’ll be one happy supporter enjoying every second of my escape from the “real” world.

Either way, thank you to every person involved to deliver such a masterpiece. I hope all of you are successful in all your future endeavors.

Well said :)

Yeesss! Star Trek Picard should STAY ON!!

Been a Trekie since

Been a Trekie since 1966. Will die watch anything they release! Love all of them!

I’ve been a star trek fan for a long time now . And ever since I heard about star trek Picard I got so excited. And I can’t wait for season 3 to come out . I know Patrick Stewart only wanted to do 3 season but not for me but the star trek fans out there . We would love the story to continue for a couple more . There’s is so munch more to tell . Like they said. space is the final frontier.

Hello, this is Jordan Peterson. I’m sorry to disappoint you, but you are not me. You are an imposter who is using my name and likeness to post comments on a Star Trek fan site. I don’t appreciate this kind of deception and misrepresentation. You should stop pretending to be someone you’re not and find your own identity and voice.

I’m also curious why you chose me as your target. Do you admire me or resent me? Do you agree with my views or oppose them? Do you have any genuine interest in Star Trek or are you just using it as a platform to spread your message? What is your message, anyway?

I have been a fan of Star Trek since I was a child. I find it a fascinating exploration of human nature, morality, and the unknown. I have written and spoken about Star Trek on several occasions, and I have even met some of the actors and creators of the franchise1. I think Star Trek has a lot to offer as a source of inspiration, education, and entertainment.

However, I also recognize that Star Trek is not perfect. It has its flaws and limitations, both in its storytelling and its worldview. It sometimes falls into ideological traps and clichés that undermine its own ideals and values. It sometimes fails to address the complexity and diversity of reality and human experience. It sometimes contradicts itself and its own canon.

That’s why I think Star Trek should be approached with a critical and open mind, not with blind devotion or dogmatism. Star Trek should be a starting point for discussion and debate, not a final authority or a sacred text. Star Trek should be enjoyed and appreciated, but also challenged and questioned.

So, if you are a real fan of Star Trek, I invite you to engage with me in a respectful and honest dialogue about the show and its themes. If you are not a real fan of Star Trek, I suggest you find something else to do with your time and energy. Either way, please stop impersonating me and respect my identity and reputation. Thank you. The real Jordan Peterson.

Ps. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one. But the one must also have the courage to make a difference. And the difference must be made with logic, compassion, and curiosity.

Is ‘Star Trek: Picard’ season 4 in the works?

Season 3 was originally billed as the finale, but now the cast and crew aren’t so sure

star trek picard saison 4

The third, and reportedly final, season of Star Trek: Picard premiered last week – but it seems a season 4 is possible.

The Star Trek spin-off was first announced back in 2018 with season 1 being released in 2020, with a second season airing in 2022.

A third season was “informally” green lit back in 2020, so it could be filmed back-to-back with season 2 before Sir Patrick Stewart officially confirmed the season in 2021, with filming wrapping in March 2022. Paramount confirmed that Star Trek: Picard season 3 would be the last though.

Star Trek: Picard is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video , with new episodes available every Friday . US viewers can watch Star Trek: Picard the day before, on Paramount+.

Will there be a Star Trek: Picard season 4?

Star Trek: Picard

“When we started the series, Patrick and I talked about really wanting it to just be three years, feeling like we could really tell a complete story with the season you’re now seeing as our endpoint,” said series producer Alex Kurtzman (via TVLine ) earlier this year.

Recommended

“That being said, anything is possible. If a show blows the doors off the place, as we’re certainly hoping it will, and we’re very, very proud of season 3, who knows,” he added.

Stewart is apparently also up for a return “if we can maintain the work that we did on seasons 1, 2 and 3 of Picard .”

“There is still enormous potential for narrative in what we’ve been doing, and there are still doors left open. We didn’t close all of them,” he explained.

What about other Star Trek spin-offs?

Season 3 of Star Trek: Picard brings back several characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation which ran from 1987 to 1994 and featured 178 episodes over seven seasons. Four films followed between 1994 and 2002, though The Next Generation was ultimately cancelled after the poor reception to 2002’s Star Trek: Nemesis .

While Star Trek: Picard is, according to showrunner Terry Matalas, a “ send-off ” to those characters, Gates McFadden (who plays Dr. Beverly Crusher) disagrees. “I read all those 10 scripts and I didn’t see it as a send-off as much as we are engaged in the present of the world,” she told Rotten Tomatoes . “It’s a new world, things have changed, and there is so much yet to be done.”

“You can do anything you want to do [with Trek],” added Michael Dorn, who plays Worf. “You never know what’s in studios’ minds, but it seems like it’s the right thing [to continue with the characters.]”

Last year, Executive producer Alex Kurtzman confirmed further Star Trek spin-offs were in the works. “Anything’s possible and, without revealing too much, you can certainly expect to see more Star Trek shows with female leads,” he added (via Entertainment Weekly ).

Star Trek: Picard Addresses Season 4 Chances

Star Trek: Picard season 3 is supposed to be the end of the voyage for the titular Captain, but producer Alex Kurtzman and star Patrick Stewart say that may not be the case.

Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard in Picard

Maybe all good things don’t need to come to an end? We knew that was already the case when the Star Trek: The Next Generation crew continued to appear in four feature films and now will reunite for season three of Star Trek: Picard . But despite reports that the third season of Jean-Luc’s adventures would be his last, producer Alex Kurtzman may have changed his tune.

When a member of the Televisision Critics Association asked if there would be more Picard after the third season, Kurtzman responded with a non-commital, “Who knows?” According to Variety , star Patrick Stewart took it even further, insisting that this show “leaves the door open” for more of the Next Generation crew and that he would be interested, provided that the show can “maintain the work quality” of its first three seasons.

While the news may come as a surprise to some, it does make sense that Star Trek characters would continue long after they said they were done. After all, Picard himself dies in the first season of his solo show, only to return in an android body. Likewise, how many times have Brent Spiner, Leonard Nimoy, or William Shatner said they were retiring their characters, only to keep coming back in one form or another? Sadly, it seems that only Avery Brooks wants to leave his Captain Benjamin Sisko out of the Federation.

Furthermore, it sounds like Picard may have a lot of unfinished business with his erstwhile crew. After reconnecting with Data, Riker, and Troi (the Traveller Wesley Crusher only visited the android Soji in season two, foregoing one last “shut up” from his old Captain), Picard will be joined again by Beverly Crusher, Worf, and Geordi La Forge.

Ad – content continues below

In a recent interview with TV Line , Stewart hinted at his character’s current relationship with his former crewmates. While Geordi’s status remains unclear (please don’t be married to Leah Brahms), Stewart assured fans that Worf’s transition to pacificism is “one of the most delightful things this season.” Even more compelling are the hints he drops about Beverly. “[Picard] felt abandoned by Crusher — she just disappeared out of his life,” Stewart revealed. “He adored her and that was never resolved.”

This last point could be fertile ground for a fourth season of Picard . From the beginning of Next Generation , Picard and Crusher have had a complicated relationship, marked by mutual attraction but stymied by the former’s guilt over the death of the latter’s husband. While the Next Generation finale “All Good Things…” did reveal that the two eventually married, they had divorced by the time the story began.

In short, season four of Picard could give us the two together. While some might balk at the thought of killing the “will they/won’t they” tension as a cliche, romance between octogenarian remains fairly unexplored. And unless his one true love Vash makes an appearance, Picard and Beverly is the best place to find it.

Season three of Star Trek: Picard premiers February 16 on Paramount+.

Star Trek: Picard Season 4 - Everything we know so far

R umors speculating about the possibility of Star Trek: Picard season 4 began circulating shortly after the conclusion of the show's third season on April 20, 2023. Across its three seasons, the series has centered around Sir Patrick Stewart's fictional character, Starfleet Retired Admiral Jean-Luc Picard.

Despite its successful three-season run, the chances of Star Trek: Picard season 4 happening appear to be thin. And there are several reasons behind that. Fans think one of the signs of the show ending in season 3 is what Sir Patrick Stewart said in an interview back in 2018.

While attending the red carpet for his movie The Kid Who Would Be King , Sir Stewart revealed to Red Carpet News the plans for Star Trek: Picard . He said:

"Oh lord, we are set up for possibly three years of this show."

Is Star Trek: Picard season 4 happening?

As of now, there has been no official confirmation regarding Star Trek: Picard season 4, and the current indication suggests that such an announcement is unlikely. Fans are convinced that a fourth installment of the show is improbable unless there is a sudden change of events. And there is much reason for them to believe so.

The most prominent reason among them is Sir Patrick Stewart 's deteriorating health since the show's third season came to an end on April 20, 2023. Stewart has not been keeping well in the past couple of years. He has been in and out of the hospital multiple times in the past year. This complicates plans for Star Trek: Picard season 4, as the series centers around Stewart's character.

Additionally, it is plausible that the creators never planned for Star Trek: Picard season 4. As mentioned already, Stewart had loosely mentioned in a conversation with Red Carpet News that the show is all geared to enjoy a three-season run.

Is Star Trek: Picard a good show?

The premiere episode of the first season of Star Trek: Picard debuted on CBS All Access, now known as Paramount+, on January 23, 2020. Following its release, the show garnered widespread recognition, receiving praise from critics and audiences alike.

The show's executive producers had already revealed their plans for the show at the New York Comic Con hosted back in 2018. Speaking to TrekMovie, executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Heather Kadin expressed their intention to make the new Picard show an ongoing series rather than a limited one.

This meant that there would be subsequent seasons of the show, and that is exactly what happened. Paramount+ released two more seasons of the show, the first on March 3, 2022, and the second on February 16, 2023.

The first two seasons of the show were averagely successful among critics and audiences. The third season, on the other hand, was a massive success. All three seasons of the show hold an impressive average rating of approximately 89 percent on Rotten Tomatoes .

Speaking about the third season of the show, which received the highest rating on the platform, Nicola Austin from We Have a Hulk says:

"Weaving together a fantastic culmination of years of storytelling, with a brilliant mix of beloved legacy cast & fantastic new additions, Star Trek: Picard will certainly unite both old and new Trek fans with a gripping final frontier."

Viewers can stream episodes of Star Trek: Picard on Paramount+ .

Star Trek Picard: Season 4 Not Happening, But There's Room For A Spin-Off

Ignacio Weil

Star Trek: Picard ended after three seasons 3 and fans are wondering if there are any plans for a season 4. Sadly, season 4 seems to be off the table, but apparently there's still room for spin-offs so you never know.

Star trek picard season 4 story continue

Star Trek: Picard is one of those shows where things only really started falling into place in the later seasons. So if you made it to the last episode of season 3, you're probably wondering how things are looking for Star Trek: Picard season 4 and if there are plans to continue the show. Sadly, that's not the case, but it looks like there is some room for spin-offs .

Star Trek: Picard Won't Continue With Season 4, But The Crew Could Return In A Possible Spin-Off

Startrekpicard2

In 2020, Akiva Goldsman, co-creator of Star Trek: Picard, stated that the series was intended to be a three-season show. They initially kept the door open for a fourth season, but only if CBS, Patrick Stewart, and the world wanted it, and that apparently wasn't the case... As we all know by now, the show finally ended with season 3 in April 2023.

However, the story still has tremendous potential to unfold further, suggesting that there's room for more even after the current run. It also seems like several cast members would be open to a Star Trek based future project, be it a movie or another series.

In fact, showrunner Terry Matalas already proposed the spin-off Star Trek: Legacy in which Seven Of Nine would become captain of the newly rechristened USS Enterprise-G and Jean-Luc Picard's son, Ensign Jack Crusher would meet Q. Sadly there are currently no plans from Paramount+ to actually develop Star Trek: Legacy.

Additionally, Patrick Stewart has always been pretty vocal about wanting one more movie to conclude the Story of Picard. As mentioned in several interviews, he would like to make a final movie directed by Jonathan Frakes, however, Paramount+ didn't show any interest in this idea so far as well.

As sad as it is, at the moment it doesn't look like Star Trek Picard will be continued any time soon. And while we hate to admit it, the longer Paramount+ isn't acting on any of the proposals, the less likely any potential spin-off or movie gets since the cast members are all very busy and aren't getting any younger...

Screen Rant

Picard season 4 or star trek: legacy - which sequel is better.

Paramount could capitalize on Star Trek: Picard's huge success by commissioning a Picard season 4 but should it continue the story with Legacy?

The huge success of Star Trek: Picard season 3 raises the question of whether the best sequel show would be Star Trek: Legacy or Picard season 4. Picard season 3 reached unprecedented levels of success, featuring in the Nielsen Top 10 three times, suggesting that Paramount should capitalize on this popularity. However, Picard season 3 set up such an exciting future for Star Trek with the brand-new USS Enterprise-G, commanded by Captain Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), that it would be hugely disappointing not to continue that story.

It's undeniable that there are still stories to tell about each of the beloved Star Trek: The Next Generation characters. For example, after decades of pursuing what it means to be human, Data (Brent Spiner) can finally experience humanity in his synthetic body. However, Star Trek: Picard season 3 was billed as the final season and, while he did qualify it with a statement of " never say never ", Patrick Stewart appeared content to step away from the character of Jean-Luc Picard. With that in mind, here are the merits of continuing the story of Star Trek 's 25th century in Picard season 4 and Legacy , and which show would make the best sequel.

RELATED: Star Trek: Picard Season 4 - Everything We Know

Why Picard's Sequel Should Be Star Trek: Picard Season 4

Nostalgia played a huge part in the success of Star Trek: Picard season 3, with viewers flocking to Paramount+ to revisit their favorite Star Trek: The Next Generation characters. Along with their undeniable chemistry, the TNG crew still has a lot of stories to tell by the end of Picard season 3. For example, Admiral Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) can use her decades of experience with frontier medicine to revolutionize Starfleet Medical. It would make sense, therefore, for Paramount to capitalize on the TNG / Picard brand and entice streaming subscribers with more adventures for these legacy characters.

While it's possible that Patrick Stewart would return as Jean-Luc for small cameos like his Professor Xavier appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , it feels unlikely that he would return for another 10-episode Star Trek series. Star Trek: Picard season 3's end credits scene set up Jean-Luc's son, Jack Crusher (Ed Speleers) as a new Star Trek protagonist, providing an easy workaround to justify the continued use of the Picard name. All that being said, Star Trek has always been a franchise about looking toward the future and embracing change, and anchoring the 25th century to a 36-year-old franchise character feels counterintuitive.

Why Star Trek Should Make Star Trek: Legacy Instead

Led by beloved fan-favorite character Captain Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), there's already a great deal of support for more adventures for the crew of the USS Enterprise-G. An online petition to get Star Trek: Legacy made currently stands at over 55,000 signatures which would equate to over 3 million minutes streamed worldwide for a single episode. That's a strong core viewership to get the series going, allowing positive word-of-mouth to see Legacy potentially reach the heights of Star Trek: Picard seasons 1-3's 400 million minutes streamed in the US alone.

Star Trek: Legacy doesn't need the Jean-Luc Picard brand to flourish because it already has an enormous amount of goodwill behind it. By simply branding itself as the show that continues the story of the critically acclaimed Star Trek: Picard season 3, Legacy should attract the audience it needs to succeed. Matalas and his writing team have proved that they can ably balance fan service with exciting new Star Trek stories that push the franchise into new territory. Star Trek: Legacy is, therefore, the perfect sequel show with which to continue their great work.

star trek picard saison 4

Les portes pour une saison 4 de Star Trek Picard restent ouvertes selon Patrick Stewart et le producteur exécutif Alex Kurtzman.

Alors que la saison 3 de Star Trek Picard a été annoncée comme étant la dernière, il serait finalement possible que la série est plus à raconter. En effet, le producteur exécutif Alex Kurtzman dit maintenant que la série pourrait continuer.

« Quand nous avons commencé la série, Patrick [Stewart] et nous avons tous parlé de vouloir vraiment que ce ne soit que trois ans, sentant que nous pouvions vraiment raconter une histoire complète avec la saison que vous voyez maintenant comme notre point final », a-t-il déclaré Kurtzman aux journalistes américains lors du Television Critics Association winter press tour lundi. « Cela dit, tout est possible. Si une série fait exploser les portes, comme nous l’espérons certainement, et nous sommes très, très fiers de la saison 3, qui sait ? »

Alors Patrick Stewart serait-il prêt à revenir pour une autre saison en tant que Jean-Luc Picard ? « Si nous pouvons maintenir le travail que nous avons fait sur les saisons 1, 2 et 3 de Picard, alors absolument, oui » , dit Stewart. « Parce qu’il y a encore un énorme potentiel de narration dans ce que nous avons fait, et il y a encore des portes ouvertes. Nous ne les avons pas toutes fermées. »

La saison 3 de Picard verra les retours de LeVar Burton (Geordi La Forge), Michael Dorn (Worf), Jonathan Frakes (William Riker), Gates McFadden (Dr Beverly Crusher), Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi) et Brent Spiner (Data) – qui ont tous joué dans la populaire série Star Trek The Next Generation .

Si la plateforme Paramount+ vient d’être lancée en France, Prime Video reste le diffuseur de Star Trek Picard dans l’hexagone. La saison 3 démarre chez nous le 17 février.

Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: Picard

‘Picard’ Is Keeping the Hope Alive for Season 4

Image of Rachel Ulatowski

Star Trek: Picard is fast approaching its season 3 finale, delighting fans by amping up the pace as it nears its conclusion. The show, which premiered on January 23, 2020, takes place about 20 years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis . It follows Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in his retirement as he struggles to cope with grief and illness, and find purpose in a new chapter of his life. Fortunately, it isn’t long before he’s swept up into new adventures and reunited with his USS Enterprise crew from Star Trek: The Next Generation .

The Enterprise reunion has been the main focus of Picard season 3, making it quite the nostalgia trip. It has also offered an abundance of opportunities to explore where the Enterprise crew has been all this time. After all, as mentioned above, the last official Star Trek project featuring The Next Generation (TNG) crew was over 20 years ago. In the years since, individual members of the crew have popped up in various Star Trek projects , but there are still a lot of undocumented years to cover.

Now that the TNG crew is officially back in the present-day Star Trek universe, it isn’t likely that all of them will wish to depart immediately when Picard season 3 concludes—especially because this season has confirmed that the series has more stories to tell, leaving fans wondering if there will be another season.

Will there be a Star Trek: Picard season 4?

Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: Picard

Star Trek: Picard has not been renewed for a fourth season yet. Additionally, season 3 was initially confirmed by Paramount+ to be the final season in the series. Both Stewart and the show’s creators have also indicated that the show was always planned for only three seasons. This is why season 3 included the big TNG reunion—to close the series out with a bang. However, despite multiple confirmations of season 3’s finality, Star Trek: Picard executive producer Alex Kurtzman recently changed his tune.

In an interview with TVLine in January , Kurtzman indicated that the door was still open for a fourth season. He acknowledged the plans of a three-season run but concluded by stating, “That being said, anything is possible. If a show blows the doors off the place, as we’re certainly hoping it will, and we’re very, very proud of season 3, who knows?” What’s even more interesting is that Stewart also confirmed he would be open to continuing the series. “If we can maintain the work that we did on Seasons 1, 2, and 3 of Picard , then absolutely, yes,” Stewart said, adding, “there is still enormous potential for narrative in what we’ve been doing, and there are doors left open, still. We didn’t close all of them.”

Although a fourth season of Picard hasn’t been confirmed and wasn’t initially planned, it could still happen. However, the show could also choose to continue in the form of new spinoff series. Star Trek: Picard provided the opportunity for many beloved Star Trek characters to make their returns, and now it might be time for them to settle into their own shows and continue their individual stories.

  • You are not prepared for the final season of Star Trek: Picard

The last season of Picard is truly wild, and while it’s filled with action, it never seems to lose that sense of wonder that makes Star Trek Star Trek.

After two middling but slowly improving seasons of Star Trek: Picard , the show has returned for one last hurrah — and god damn, was it worth the rest. If you have ever considered yourself a fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation (or even, to a lesser extent, Deep Space Nine or Voyager ), then get ready for the love letter coming your way on February 16th.

While this season puts its characters in terrible spots, and there are rumors a few will die by season’s end, this wild ride has a real genuine affection for all the players. It's the absolute most fun I’ve had watching Paramount Plus’ myriad of Star Trek shows. And part of my love of this final season comes from how excited the show is to take some of Star Trek ’s most flawless heroes and find the humanity in them. These characters are messy dumbasses, and it makes the adventure all the better.

Back in Deep Space Nine , Worf, new to the station and struggling with the many conflicting personalities of the crew, speaks fondly of the crew of the Enterprise-D from Star Trek: The Next Generation. “We were like warriors from the ancient sagas,” he says wistfully, “there was nothing we could not do.” Which was true. The crew of TNG fought gods, survived wars, discovered new species, traveled through time, got turned into monsters and back to people again, and occasionally got busy with alien ghosts inhabiting antique candles (you had to be there).

An older woman points a phase rifle at someone off-screen.

But the problem with TNG was the characters seemed to be without significant flaws. Sure, Picard liked Shakespeare a bit too much, Riker had his love of the trombone, and Troi’s fatal flaw was her love of chocolate. But when put up against other crews, like the Deep Space Nine one (it had a terrorist on the team!) and Voyager (it had multiple terrorists on the team!), the TNG crew felt more sanitized. For many fans, this was the boring crew.

Yet, if you squinted, you could see where the show glossed over what might be some significant character issues. Picard’s love of adventure got him killed multiple times, while Crusher was so sure of herself she’d regularly ignore commands and once even was convinced the universe was the broken one. Riker cracked jokes and put his career first to avoid intimacy, and Geordi LaForge was so obsessed with engineering he fell in love with a hologram. These characters have always had flaws, but they rarely, if ever, drove the action.

Until Star Trek: Picard .

Twenty years after Nemesis , this crew’s last big adventure together, they’ve all returned, and they finally feel like messy humans instead of warriors from the ancient sagas. Picard and Riker race to save Crusher, Worf deals with a new threat to the Federation, and Troi, Geordi and whoever Brent Spiner is playing this time around get caught up in the action too. They all still feel like the characters of TNG — only pried out of the 1990s syndicated space adventure mold and put into the 2020s prestige streaming show mold.

A young Black woman dressed in a Starfleet uniform stares at something off screen with concern.

Watching the first six episodes of this season, I kept thinking this was what it must have felt like to be a fan of the original series and finally get great movies like Wrath of Kahn and The Voyage Home . These are still the same characters, played by the same actors, but we’re seeing them in a way the original show never could have allowed. And I don’t just mean that it’s more violent, although Worf does dismember some people. Sometimes the characters make bad decisions in Picard . They mess up. They fight.

But when you worry Picard is starting to feel like a too-edgy sequel, there will be little moments of wonder you can only get in Star Trek . New discoveries. Clever puzzles that get solved. Old villains reappear and feel more menacing thanks to the bigger budget and better special effects of Picard .

Picard and Riker flank Seven of Nine on the bridge of the Titan. They are all seated, with Seven seated in the center.

Like Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, this feels like a proper Star Trek show in a way a lot of live-action Star Trek has failed to. But because these are characters we’ve known since 1987, there’s real emotional weight to these adventures. And some shockingly good acting. Jeri Ryan is back as Seven of Nine, and she continues to steal every scene she’s in by virtue of just being that good, but she’s not carrying the whole show on her back like she sometimes did the last two seasons. Patrick Stewart seems to sometimes doze his way through Picard , but there’s a scene with him and Gates McFadden’s Crusher that will have you sitting up straight — eyes glued to the screen. Michael Dorn and Michelle Hurd both have their own scene-stealing moments as Worf and Raffi, respectively, and in one scene, Brent Spiner reminds us of why he and his characters Data and Lore had such fervent followings in the ’90s. There’s something a little electric as all these characters come together.

There are still four episodes of Star Trek: Picard I haven’t seen, and the show could drop the ball spectacularly. The wildness of this show (you should really make an effort to avoid all spoilers) could veer into absolutely absurd territory. But in these first six episodes, you have a very goofy, very thrilling, and very fun sequel to Star Trek: The Next Generation .

Star Trek: Picard airs weekly on Paramount Plus beginning February 16 .
