'Star Trek' TV News & Update: What To Know About The Bryan Fuller Series So Far [Plot, Cast, Air Date]

The "Star Trek" TV reboot on CBS All Access is already taking shape. Set for an early 2017 debut, showrunner Bryan Fuller recently revealed more details about the series' production in an exclusive interview.

Speaking with Collider, Bryan Fuller stated that "Star Trek" on CBS All Access will have a total of 13 episodes that will run between 45 to 60 minutes. It will feature one underlying story or plot that will develop with each episode. However, Fuller did not reveal the storyline just yet, when there are plenty of "Star Trek" universes to base this from.

Per Trek Core, the "Star Trek" TV reboot has a standing condition that it will only air six months after the movie "Star Trek: Beyond" is out. This is to avoid "market confusion" given the differences in actors, timelines and plots. The latter will premiere in July, which sets the television reboot's potential air date at around February 2017.

However, the showrunner assures viewers the "Star Trek" TV reboot will not be littered with profanity even if they don't have to adhere to certain rules.
