Paramount+ dropped a teaser at San Diego Comic-Con in July that opened with a flashback to the young Philippa, musing via voiceover about how an emperor “can only be loyal to duty” to ensure that the empire stays strong. But the rest was largely devoted to Yeoh swanning about in fabulous outfits while her fellow secret agents told her what a “bad bitch” she is. “Somebody’s got to keep it lively, right?” Georgiou smirked.
We don’t learn much about the plot in this new trailer, but we do get an eyeful of the snazzy casino-type setting on the space station where Georgiou has set up operations, as well as a glimpse of the Cheron, an alien species from The Original Series who are black on one side, white on the other. Georgiou is recruited to join Section 31. Apparently the Federation faces “a threat unlike anything Starfleet’s ever seen.” (I bet they say that to all the former evil empresses.) Billions of lives are at stake, and the Section 31 team must band together to save the day—with a bit of oversight from Starfleet to ensure they don’t, like, commit murder or something. Cue fight scenes, big explosions, spaceships in distress, and other classic Star Trek tropes.
Star Trek: Section 31 premieres on Paramount+ on January 24, 2025.
