'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Anson Mount Compares Season 2 to 'Spinal Tap'

During our chat with StrangeNewWorlds star ansonmount, he shared an update on Season 2 of the StarTrek prequel series, comparing it to SpinalTap.

This summer Anson Mount returned to our screens as Captain Christopher Pike in the latest Star Trek spinoff series, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Mount first took up the role in the second season of Star Trek: Discovery, and by popular demand, Strange New Worlds was ordered with Mount, alongside Ethan Peck as Spock and Rebecca Romijn as Number One.

While Mount couldn't give away any spoilers for the hotly anticipated Season 2, Radish asked the actor how the sophomore season compares to Strange New Worlds' first outing. "It's like Christopher Guest in Spinal Tap, discovering that these knobs all go up to 11. Akiva [Goldsman] and Henry [Alonso Myers], our two showrunners, are so courageous," Mount said, sharing praise for those at the helm of Strange New Worlds.

In addition to Mount, Peck, and Romijn, Strange New Worlds stars Jess Bush, Christina Chong, Celia Rose Gooding, Melissa Navia, and Babs Olusanmokun. Season 2 will also feature the return of Paul Wesley as James T. Kirk and Carol Kane will be joining the cast in a recurring role. Season 1 is currently available on Paramount+.
