Star Trek: Prodigy creators and executive producers Kevin and Dan Hageman share their hopeful update for season 3 on Netflix. Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 premieres Monday, July 1st, on Netflix, with all 20 brand-new episodes releasing on that day. After a dedicated 2023 fan campaign to save Star Trek: Prodigy when Paramount+ canceled the beloved CGI animated series, Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 is a victory for viewers, who will naturally want even more adventures of iral Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and the USS Protostar's ragtag team of young Starfleet hopefuls.
Kevin and Dan Hageman ed Screen Rant for an exclusive interview to discuss season 2. When asked what the status of Star Trek: Prodigy's production team is if Netflix orders season 3, Kevin Hageman says they "look forward" to that day, and that they "would love" to come back for whatever iteration of Star Trek: Prodigy Netflix wants, whether it's an animated movie or another 20-episode season 3. Read Kevin Hageman's quote below:
Kevin Hageman: Well, it's been a while [since] we finished [season 2]. We don't have offices anymore. We're in our homes right now. I know that everyone in our crew, we had such a delight working on this show. So, I look forward to that day when we can make that call, we get a call from Alex Kurtzman, and they're like, 'Netflix has an appetite [for more Prodigy]'. Whether it's an animated film, a sequel, or if it's a third season. But to be able to call up our crew and actors, I know everyone who can would love to come back.
Kate Mulgrew Urges Fans To Watch Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2, Hopes For More Seasons
With Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 premiering on Netflix on July 1st, Kate Mulgrew urges fans to watch so that Netflix orders more seasons.
How Star Trek: Prodigy Season 3 Can Happen On Netflix
It's up to audiences to stream, watch, and post about Star Trek: Prodigy
Star Trek: Prodigy season 3 happening is dependent on audiences watching the next 20 episodes on Netflix once they premiere on July 1st. While Netflix is generally secretive about viewership numbers, it charts the millions of minutes streamed, how shows are binge-watched, and also social media chatter about a series. Kevin and Dan Hageman told Screen Rant that they know Star Trek: Prodigy season 1, which premiered Christmas Day 2023 on Netflix, was "well-watched", but Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 needs ardent viewership, especially in the first week and the first 30 days, for Prodigy to secure a season 3 order.
A best case scenario would mean a likely 2-year wait for more Star Trek: Prodigy, whether it's an animated movie or Star Trek: Prodigy season 3.
Kevin and Dan Hageman also brought up the possibility of a Star Trek: Prodigy animated movie potentially being ordered by Netflix in lieu of season 3. Star Trek overseen by Alex Kurtzman's Secret Hideout is now making 2-hour format Star Trek streaming movies, with the first, Star Trek: Section 31, awaiting a release date on Paramount+. But, as the Hagemans pointed out, the Star Trek: Prodigy production offices closed after season 2's episodes were completed. A best case scenario would mean a likely 2-year wait for more Star Trek: Prodigy, whether it's an animated movie or Star Trek: Prodigy season 3. But fans would gladly wait for more Star Trek: Prodigy.
