Thema: Neue Star Trek Serie: Bryan Fuller ist raus Antwort auf: TVTV - Tun wir, was der Fernsehen uns sagt! von Sascha
Jetzt ist das Ding nicht nur auf Mai 2017 verschoben, sondern hat auch Bryan Fuller als Showrunner verloren. Wohl, weil er nicht genügend Zeit hatte, um sich neben anderen Projekten genügend mit Star Trek zu befassen.

Hannibal/Pushing Daisies showrunner Bryan Fuller is stepping back from the showrunner role on Star Trek: Discovery. According to the report, the decision was made late last week to hand the day-to-day showrunning duties over to executive producers Gretchen Berg and Aaron Harberts before Discovery begins principal photography in Toronto next month.  Berg and Harberts worked with Fuller previously on ABC’s Pushing Daisies. Writer-director  Akiva Goldsman (I Am Legend, Fringe) is also expected to join the series in a top creative role.

The series will still follow Fuller’s initial vision for the show, and Bryan will remain on board as an executive producer and will still be involved in developing the stories. CBS is reportedly happy with the material so far, but Variety says that there had been “some strain” between Star Trek producer CBS Television Studios and Fuller over the progress of production on the show, stemming from Fuller juggling other duties on his Starz’s drama American Gods and NBC’s Amazing Stories. It was apparently clear to CBS that Fuller didn’t have enough hours in the day to devote to the series.

The network was unwilling to delay the premiere date once more. It’s unclear if Fuller will step back up as showrunner after his schedule becomes less busy.

We have already been told that Fuller wrote the first two teleplays for Discovery. Fuller’s involvement as showrunner is most of the reason fans are excited about the new series. Fuller was a writer for Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and said all the right things on the summer’s TV critics press tour as well as San Diego Comic-Con.
