US fans have already been introduced to Dal R’El (played by Brett Gray), Gwyndala (Ella Purnell) and the rest of the crew, who will soon be returning for more adventures across space soon.
For Trekkies who were concerned with how the new animated show lives up to the rest of the sci-fi franchise, Kate also made sure Janeway was represented properly in the new iteration.
Dan added: “It’s not so much about notes, but we’ll have conversations with her.
“Like ‘what do you think Janeway would think about this?’ Because she’s so close to the character.”
Prodigy has already been given the green light for a season two, so there’s a chance the new team could start to meet even more familiar faces within the Federation as it continues.
