Star Trek Discovery has just cast actor Anson Mount of Inhumans fame (and Hell on Wheels, before that) as Captain Christopher Pike.
If you recall how the final episode of season 1 ended, the Discovery went nose-to-nose with the Enterprise, reacting to a call for help from the pre-Kirk Enterprise.
Of course, in the original series, Spock was an officer under Christopher Pike, so maybe we get to see Michael Burnham’s brother this time around? Time will tell.
This casting news does gel with studio rumours that Pike might get a temporary transfer to command the Discovery in one of the early episodes.
