Brian Fuller steps down as showrunner for Star Trek: Discovery
There has been a change of captain on the bridge of the upcoming CBS All Access digital platform series "Star Trek: Discovery". According to Variety, Brian Fuller resigned as showrunner of the project. However, fans of the popular franchise should not worry, since Fuller, who simultaneously oversees two more new television projects – "American Gods" for Starz and "Amazing Stories" for NBC - will remain executive producer on Discovery. Fuller's place will be taken by his colleagues on the series – executive producers Gretchen Berg and Aaron Herberts. Star Trek: Discovery, which was slated to launch in January 2017, will not be released until next May due to additional work. According to the available information, casting, held in an atmosphere of secrecy, is almost completed, but the performer of the main female role - Lieutenant Commander – not yet approved. A decision will most likely be made as soon as possible, as production of the series begins in Toronto next month. According to sources of the publication, the budget for the upcoming series ranges from six to seven million dollars per episode.
