Wrenn Schmidt in Nuremberg (2025)
"Star Trek: Khan," the latest expansion of the Star Trek audio universe, delves into one of the franchise's most compelling villains, exploring Khan Noonien Singh's transformation during his exile on Ceti Alpha V. The series bridges the gap between Khan's first appearance in The Original Series and his vengeful return in 'Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan'. The podcast features Naveen Andrews ("Lost," "The Dropout") taking on Ricardo Montalbán's iconic role, with the story following Khan's evolution from a charismatic leader to the ruthless antagonist fans know from the films.

The stellar cast includes Wrenn Schmidt ("For All Mankind," "Outcast") as Lieutenant Marla McGivers and Sonya Cassidy ("Lodge 49," "Reacher") as Dr. Rosalind Lear. In an exciting nod to Trek history, the series features franchise veterans George Takei reprising his beloved role as Captain Hikaru Sulu, and Tim Russ returning as Voyager's Tuvok.

This ambitious audio drama releases new episodes weekly on Mondays through November 3, 2025, available on all major podcast platforms.
