Star Trek: Starfleet Academy has officially launched, with the first two episodes now streaming. And we already know that it will be back for more — the Paramount+ series was renewed in October 2024, over a year before the January 2026 premiere. But given the concept of the show, it feels like they can keep bringing in new cadet classes and keep it going beyond that, easily — and executive producer Alex Kurtzman agrees.

“Honestly, it could go forever because you have the four years of our current cadets, and then it would be really interesting to follow them and see what happens once they’re deployed. But then you have every year a whole new class. So you could keep going forever,” he pointed out when TV Insider spoke with him and executive producer Noga Landau ahead of the premiere.
