Star Trek: Picard's Final Trailer Pushes Back the Darkness

Jean-Luc Picard has one more fight left in him—and he needs some help from his friends to make sure he can win it.

Paramount has released the final trailer for the final season of Star Trek: Picard, teasing the tumultuous events that will force Patrick Stewart’s legendary TNG Captain to play his last hand. After all, you better need something apocalyptic to get the bridge crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise back together.

And apocalyptic things do indeed look, as—contrary to assurances of the Captain who promises Picard and Riker (the returning Jonathan Frakes) a stress-free adventure—we get to see Starfleet ships blowing up, crashing into each other, and in general the good men and women of Starfleet, our returning heroes included, having a pretty hectic time. And so Worf (Michael Dorn), Geordi (LeVar Burton), Deanna (Marina Sirtis), and Beverly (Gates McFadden) all get back into the Starfleet saddle to help their old friend face a mysterious new foe. Oh, and of course, Picard regular Brent Spiner is along for the ride too. But who is he playing this time, considering that Data bit the proverbial android bullet back at the end of season one?

Time will tell—and it’ll tell soon, as Star Trek: Picard returns February 16.

No ancient evil is to blame, thankfully; it’s an unspecified “tech issue,” according to a Max spokesperson who responded to a comment request from Vulture after the issue was noted by dismayed fans on Reddit . The fact that The Return of the King extended edition is merely temporarily unavailable is actually good news given Max’s track record for removing content in the past, and the explanation makes sense considering The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers remain available in both their theatrical and extended editions. The Max spokesperson assured Vulture that The Return of the King extended edition will be, ah, returning soon to the service, though as of this writing i...

Image: Universal Pictures Just in time for Halloween and for the release of Blumhouse and Universal Pictures’ Five Nights at Freddy ’s fans can visit a pop-up location of the fictional franchise from the game and film. That’s right, a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has mysteriously appeared in Hollywood. Like in the game and upcoming film, it’s a run-down spot that’s been closed down due to some mysterious activity within.

Check out the video captured by deadboifilms on TikTok below at the location on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood (near the Chateau Marmont Hotel).
