It should also be found at the official site, but the actual clip doesn't seem to be working right now.

They picked a fairly average-seeming clip, but hit damn it's nice to see an actual ensemble cast photo.

The Star Trek: Discovery season 5 cast

Holy fuck Culber... Hot damn.

Also I know nothing about the dude on the far right but he also can get it.

I really wish there was a high resolution image of this. I'd love to use this as my wallpaper.

i almost ran into the actor in new york back in 2008 on my bike while crossing the roosevelt bridge because he was shirtless and i was too busy staring at his very prominent pecs to watch where i was going; so agreed, he could definitely get it. lol

i think he looked back at me too; but i suspect it was to wonder wtf was wrong with the fat guy on the bike. lol

Can't tell you anything about the character, but that's Leoben Conoy/Number Two. I guess this time around, the river of time pulled him into a different franchise.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

All we really know about him so far is

spoilerHe's a Starfleet captain, his name is Rayner, and he's poised to be some kind of curmudgeonly frenemy to Burnham.

And because Callum Keith Rennie is always great, I could not be more excited.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

As long as he doesn't kidnap some child and make Saru think it's his.

Hype level: medium

In all seriousness I really really loved season four and am a bit turned off by the first teaser for season 5 being a CGI action scene featuring a played-out "on three" joke.

Not that any of this will change my behavior in the slightest way. Can't wait to see everyone in the discussion threads!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Excited but really sad to see this show only getting this one more season.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Better to have a conclusion of some kind, I think. That's a rare treat these days.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

True, I guess at least we can feel good knowing we are all guaranteed conclusions with our own lives, if not with our tv shows.

I’m not caught up yet, haven’t seen season 4 so I’m not going to watch the trailer yet and can’t comment on it. However, I do think it’s…funny? That the thumbnail image for the trailer shows Burnham looking like she’s about to cry. The fact that she shows emotion doesn’t bother me but I know a lot of fans gripe about it so it strikes me as an odd choice to feature that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

She looks confused. But sure.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Okay sure, I can see that. Maybe it’s a WTF face going on? Again, didn’t watch the clip so maybe it comes off differently in context.
