But sadly, Bryan Fuller is now stepping down as showrunner for Star Trek Discovery (via Variety), which is more than a little disheartening given his passion for the project.
But for those worrying that Fuller backing away from Star Trek: Discovery means the series is in trouble, there’s no cause for alarm (at least not yet).
Perhaps most promising was the news that Bryan Fuller – former Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Voyager staff writer and since celebrated creator/producer/writer of TV series such as Pushing Daisies and Hannibal – would serve as Star Trek: Discovery‘s showrunner.
Production on Star Trek: Discovery has been slow to start (hence the delay of release) but practically everything we’ve learned about the series remains promising.
