Star Trek Continues is a Star Trek: The Original Series fan film series set in the 23rd century, completing the USS Enterprise's five year mission. The series production ran from 2012 to 2017, and consists of 11 episodes, 3 vignettes and multiple behind-the-scenes videos. Star Trek Continues was initially produced by Far From Home, LLC and DracoGen Strategic Investments in association with Farragut Films.

Summary[]

Star Trek Continues

The series was developed by a team of entertainment professionals led by Mignogna, Lisa Hansell, and James Kerwin who shared a fan interest in Star Trek. The idea was to complete the five-year mission set up by Star Trek: The Original Series (which was three years long but covered four years) by focusing on the final year. With the help of Kickstarter, the fan project was able to enter into a production stage. The series was able to attract a number of notable guest stars with ties to the Trek franchise such as Marina Sirtis, who provided the voice of the Enterprise's computer and Michael Forest, who reprised his character Apollo from TOS. Actors from other franchises also made guest appearances, such as Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant from Doctor Who; Lou Ferrigno from The Incredible Hulk; and Erin Gray from Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. Offspring of TOS-era actors also appeared, most notably Chris Doohan, who played his father, James', character of Montgomery Scott throughout the series, and Amy Rydell, who played the TOS-era Romulan Commander previously played by her mother, Joanne Linville.
