Writing, acting, and production are not about “revenue.” Revenue’s a means to make a career of it, but its worth is only instrumental. We want to see the ships, hear the sounds, explore the Roddenberry universe one more time. We want to have people - be it a hundred or a thousand or ten thousand or (if your name is Jim Cawley or Nick Cook) hundreds of thousands of them - believe in us as starship captains or science officers or Klingon warriors. We want to shout “Red alert! All hands to battlestations!” into a microphone. We want to put on a uniform and live the daydream for a while. We want to tell stories in the Trek tradition. Here is the trailer for "Cloak and Dagger". You can download "Cloak and Dagger" and learn much more about Phoenix at the official website ( which includes cast interviews, vignettes, behind-the-scenes photos and more. Roberts and his team have already mapped out a first season for the show and hope to be producing new episodes soon. Roberts says that he is hoping that the pilot is enough of a success to justify the cost of building a bridge as elaborate as the team has envisioned. One set they did not build yet is the bridge of the USS Phoenix. For the pilot, much of the shooting was done on location as well as a number of ship locations (using a combination of standing sets and CGI). According to Roberts, one of the reasons they set the show 40 years after Nemesis, was to allow them to create a new look for the show – which required the creation of new uniform designs, new props, and even new alien make-up.
Star Trek Phoenix has a large production team with more than 150 volunteers who have been working on the project for over two years.
Phoenix Creator and Executive Producer Leo Roberts (who is also a casting director) remains behind the camera, telling TrekMovie his focus on experienced actors was one of the key goals for the series from the outset. Headed by Ben Andrews who plays Captain Bryce Avari, the cast are all trained actors who have done commercial, stage, TV and film work. The characters are a typical Star Trek crew with a mix of humans and aliens, including some new species. Star Trek: Phoenix has a cast of nine main characters, with many more playing guest roles in the pilot. The pilot episode "Cloak & Dagger" takes place one year into the maiden voyage of the ship which has a mission of exploration and diplomacy. The ‘Ascension Class ship is a massive 1,400 meters long and uses a hybrid of Romulan and Federation design, with a crew of more than 10,000. Set 40 after Star Trek: Nemesis, this new fan film focuses on the adventures of the crew of the USS Phoenix (NCX-101138). Star Trek Phoenix, produced by the Seattle-based Temporal Studios, is a new take on the 25th century of Trek’s prime universe, set aboard a massive new ship: the USS Phoenix. There is a new Star Trek fan production that has just released their first episode and it is pretty impressive.
