Take your first look at Star Trek: Discovery's final frontier. CBS shared the image via the official Star Trek Twitter account, showing starring actress Sonequa Martin-Green in her role as first officer Michael Burnham and Michelle Yeoh as captain Philippa Georgiou, leader of the USS Shenzhou.

Does that semi-futuristic desert garb look kinda familiar to you? It did to these folks, too.

@startrekcbs @SonequaMG I think you may have made a mistake. They look like they are from another "Star" franchise.May 17, 2017

@startrekcbs @SonequaMG Is that the scene where they find BB-8?May 17, 2017

@startrekcbs @SonequaMG These are her first steps...May 17, 2017

Former GamesRadar+ News Writer

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
