The panel featured a Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Q&A in anticipation of season two, featuring some of the cast, including Holly Hunter and executive producers, and a 60th celebration clips and conversation with William Shatner, moderated by Ben Stiller.

Announcements from today's panel include:

The Star Trek Universe panel kicked off with an exclusive conversation about the upcoming sophomore season of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. Panelists included series star Holly Hunter, plus Sandro Rosta, Bella Shepard, Karim Diané, Robert Picardo and co-showrunners and executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau.

During the panel, moderated by Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau teed up an exclusive first look at the new season just for the fans in the room, and announced season two will premiere March 2027 on Paramount+.

Season two of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy follows our cadets into their second year aboard the USS Athena. There, their ideals of leadership, friendship, romance and morality are put to the test as they navigate budding rivalries, shaky diplomatic negotiations, a fiercely competitive schoolwide tournament, and the arrival of a mysterious new cadet whose existence raises questions that could have consequences far beyond the classroom.

As Star Trek celebrates its 60th anniversary, the panel continued with a special presentation of clips and conversation with William Shatner, the legendary actor behind Captain James T. Kirk, moderated by Actor and Filmmaker Ben Stiller. Together, they discussed memorable behind-the-scenes moments and stories from some of Kirk's most iconic moments on screen.
