Patrick Stewart Announces 'Picard' Final Season Premiere Date at Star Trek Day 2022!

Patrick Stewart steps out for the 2022 edition of Star Trek Day held at Skirball Cultural Center on Thursday (September 8) in Los Angeles.

The 82-year-old actor, who has played Jean-Luc Picard since 1987, was joined by his Picard co-stars Michelle Hurd and Jeri Ryan at the event, along with many other Star Trek franchise stars.

Wil Wheaton, the cast of Strange New Worlds - Rebecca Romijn, Celia Rose Gooding, Jess Bush, Christina Chong, Melissa Navia, and Babs Olusanmokun – as well as Prodigy‘s Kate Mulgrew and Brett Gray, and Lower Decks‘ Noel Wells were also on hand.

One of the biggest piece of news from the annual event was the premiere date for the final season of Picard.

Debuting February 16, 2023, the final season will also reunite original stars of the Star Trek shows.

But, Patrick says, “it is not a reunion. It is an essential gathering of all of the most essential elements of ‘Star Trek: the Next Generation’ coming together to do what they do best.”
