Star Trek: Discovery’s Anthony Rapp Reflects On Series End & Wanting One More Season

In March 2023, Paramount+ unexpectedly announced that season 5 would be the last for Star Trek: Discovery. However, the streaming service provided funding for three additional days of filming, bringing the cast and crew back to Toronto to create a special 12-minute ending that offered a more conclusive finish and a sense of closure for the series. While they aimed to provide resolution, not every storyline could be fully completed, as season 5 wasn’t originally intended to be the show’s finale.
