The Hagemans’ good fortune might be Star Trek: Prodigy’s doom

BBG News

As a long-time Star Trek fan who has spent countless hours navigating the vast expanse of the Star Trek universe, I can’t help but feel a pang of disappointment upon hearing the news about the potential delay for Star Trek: Prodigy Season 3. The Hagemans are undeniably talented storytellers, and their move to write the live-action Lego Ninjago movie is an exciting opportunity that I wholeheartedly support. However, it’s a bittersweet moment for us fans who have grown attached to the Prodigy crew and their adventures.

It’s now been five months since the second season of Star Trek: Prodigy hit Netflix, and they released all twenty episodes at once for fans to enjoy a marathon viewing. However, there’s been no news from Netflix about a third season, even though enthusiastic viewers have been vocal in their calls for it, starting another promotional effort.

Currently, the masterminds behind Prodigy, Kevin and Dan Hageman, are penning a real-life Lego Ninjago film for Universal. Given their significant involvement as executive producers and writers for the first nine seasons of the Ninjago TV series, it’s no wonder they’re eager to script this live-action movie. However, this development might not be as exciting for Prodigy enthusiasts.

The Hagemans have previously mentioned that completing an animated series requires time, and with their new task of scriptwriting for Ninjago, the brothers won’t be devoting much attention to Prodigy – at least not in the near future.

Although there’s a chance that Netflix may renew Prodigy for a third season, it won’t be coming out any time soon because the movie needs to be completed first. As the creators of Prodigy, the Hagemans aren’t likely to hand over control of their creation to anyone else, and they shouldn’t! It’s unlikely that work on Prodigy season three could start until after the production of Ninjago is finished. This information might prompt Netflix to cancel Prodigy instead of waiting several years for another season.

The issue arises when networks take too long to renew shows, forcing creators to pursue new projects. This leaves fans in a state of uncertainty, much like we’ve experienced over the past five months.
