The new trail also name-checks Spock. The iconic character was previously confirmed to be appearing as a younger incarnation in the Netflix show.

The action-packed - and at times very funny - trailer was revealed during Comic-Con, and shows Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) speaking about adoptive brother Spock, and how he might have a link to the new challenges the crew of Discovery are facing.

Executive producer Alex Kurtzman said: "We know we owe you a lot of answers about how this show connects to canon this season, just not the way that you expected."

Production got underway on the new season in April 2018 and it is expected to be released in 2019 on Netflix in the UK and CBS in the United States. However, no release date has yet been confirmed.
