Star Trek: Prodigy Beams Up Some Bad Guys

Star Trek’s large new break into okid-focused animation with Prodigy has already given us a motley crew of alien teenagers, a Starfleet legend to information them, and even a glimpse of their slick new ship. But now we all know what they’re going to be up in opposition to, and it’s already sounding very good.

Deadline has confirmed that two main antagonists within the sequence shall be voiced by Lord of the Rings, Legends of Tomorrow, Fringe, and a couple of billion different beloved exhibits and movies’ John Noble, and Black Mirror, Westworld, and House of Cards’ Jimmi Simpson. Noble will voice a personality referred to as “The Diviner,” described as a “ruthless tyrant” who runs the asteroid Tars Lamora with an iron fist. On the hunt for the mysterious U.S.S. Protostar that our child heroes uncover for themselves for his personal agenda, the Diviner truly has a connection to one of many protagonists specifically—the younger Vau N’Kat Gwyn, voiced by Army of the Dead’s Ella Purnell. With his physique failing, apparently the Diviner created Gwyn to comply with in his footsteps to pursue the Protostar, in order that she finally ends up a part of its ragtag crew could be very attention-grabbing certainly.

Meanwhile, Simpson will voice Drednok, a spider-like robotic guard and the Diviner’s proper hand. Intriguingly, regardless of being the Diviner’s high agent, Drednok is described as “a friend to no one,” and is definitely answerable for conserving the Diviner on observe in his pursuit of the Protostar. That makes it sound like there’s maybe going to be mysterious figures above even these two, and no matter they’ve deliberate for an experimental Starfleet vessel might be not going to be excellent news. Good job our plucky younger children have gotten the Federation’s most interesting Delta Quadrant consultant readily available in holographic kind to assist them battle again, proper?

Star Trek: Prodigy begins on Paramount+ later this yr. No doubt we’ll study extra within the upcoming Star Trek Day celebrations on September 8.
