In an exciting development for Star Trek fans, both “Star Trek: Lower Decks” and “Star Trek: Picard” featured the return of Wesley Crusher, played by Wil Wheaton. However, due to limited screen time, viewers didn’t fully explore how his role as a Traveler had transformed the once brilliant young man. Enter “Star Trek: Prodigy,” which not only welcomed back Wesley but also granted Wheaton ample opportunity to shine onscreen. The series provided him with an engaging storyline, a clear sense of purpose, and even hinted at potential future Star Trek spinoffs. According to Wheaton’s interview with CinemaBlend, he is intrigued by this new direction for the character.
