Synopsis

The crew behind "Star Trek" and "Transformers: The Last Knight" reunites! A stunning sci-fi action blockbuster with a whole new level of evolution! The new chapter is now available on Blu-ray in a special box set!

1. Enjoyable even for non-core fans! A "new" story with an exciting plot! For the first time in the series, this film is told from the perspective of the protagonist, Michael (Spock's human sister), rather than the captain. Packed with entertaining content that goes beyond the scope of a TV series, including the drama of her and her crew's growth throughout their voyage, and the war between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingons! With clever foreshadowing and cinematic-scale visuals, this series will be enjoyable for both hardcore fans and newcomers to Star Trek!

2. The TV series returns after 13 years, bringing together past production staff and hitmakers! The series is planned and executive produced by hitmaker Alex Kurtzman, known for the 2009 reboot of Star Trek and M:i:III, and Bryan Fuller, screenwriter of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager. Also joining the team are Akiva Goldsman, screenwriter of "Transformers: The Last Knight," Nicholas Meyer, director of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," and Jonathan Frakes, who played Commander Riker in "Star Trek: The Next Generation." While retaining the energy of the classic Star Trek series, the addition of new creators makes this even more powerful!

3. Powerful visuals that surpass the movies! This is the cutting edge of sci-fi drama! Plus, over two and a half hours of bonus footage! Dynamic images and footage follow J.J. Abrams' film adaptation. The spectacular and realistic exterior of the Discovery. An unknown planet depicted with stunning visual beauty. A fierce fleet battle between countless spaceships! Produced by an Academy Award-winning production company that handled VFX for blockbuster films like "Wonder Woman," the visuals will transport you to an unprecedented world that will make you feel like you're in a theater!

4. Don't miss the passionate performances of the all-star cast! The protagonist, Michael Burnham, is played by Sonequa Martin-Green, who gained popularity in the "Walking Dead" series. Her performance in this film has been praised as "charismatic and quietly powerful," and she perfectly portrays a new protagonist. Saru is played by Doug Jones, who is unrivaled when it comes to playing creatures, such as the mysterious creatures in "The Shape of Water." Also featured in the cast are Jason Isaacs from the "Harry Potter" series and Michelle Yeoh from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," supporting the series' new beginning.
