Six months after Star Trek: Discovery wrapped its first year of production in October, the cast and crew kick off Season 2’s journey tomorrow as the next adventure begins tomorrow in Toronto.
As we shared yesterday, some of the cast had set a course for Canada, and today some more social media bits came through from the Discovery team, starting with Doug Jones going all in to once more don the guise of his Kelpien alter-ego, Saru.
Welp… so begins season 2 filming tomorrow. @startrekcbs @StarTrekNetflix #StarTrekDiscovery pic.twitter.com/XBLt5nQHYu

Discovery production designer Tamara Deverell took a moment to praise her colleagues in the set construction and paint departments, sharing this photo of what appears to be a Starfleet vessel’s viewport being assembled on stage.
Finally, makeup artist James Mackinnon showcased his tools of the trade in preparation for the Season 2 workload.
We’re sure to see more from the set, cast, and crew as Discovery moves forward into filming on Season 2 — plus, we expect to hear more casting announcements in the coming days and weeks, so keep coming back to TrekCore for the latest news as it breaks!
