CBS Studios International and Bell Media announced on July 18, a licensing agreement for the new STAR TREK television series in Canada. With Bell Media's acquisition of the exclusive linear television and subscription video on demand (SVOD) rights in English and French in Canada, each episode of the new STAR TREK series will be available simultaneously with its release in the U.S.
Bell Media has also licensed all 727 existing episodes of the STAR TREK television library ““ which includes Star Trek : The Original Series, Star Trek : The Next Generation, Star Trek : Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, and Star Trek : ENTERPRISE. The rollout for the new STAR TREK series in Canada will mirror the launch in the U.S. The first episode will premiere on Canada's most watched broadcast network, CTV, on the same night as CBS.
The STAR TREK television library will return to Space (in English) and debut on Cinépop (in French), and will also be found among CraveTV's leading lineup of premium television series. The all-new STAR TREK will begin production in Toronto this September for its January 2017 premiere. The iconic and influential global franchise will return to television for the first time since 2005 with a new ship, new characters and new missions, while embracing the same ideology and hope for the future that inspired a generation.
