In the expansive Star Trek universe, a new podcast series titled Star Trek: Khan has emerged, offering fans a fresh and captivating storyline. Set several years after the events of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, the podcast finds Hikaru Sulu, portrayed by George Takei, captaining the USS Excelsior. The character of James T. Kirk, played by William Shatner, is thought to have perished during the maiden voyage of the USS Enterprise-B in the podcast's timeline. The podcast's framing story is not only a reunion of familiar faces but also an intriguing narrative. Alongside Sulu, the podcast features Rosalind Lear and Tim Russ' Tuvok from Star Trek: Voyager. Tuvok, played by Russ, is an ensign aboard the USS Excelsior in the podcast's timeline. The central characters of Star Trek: Khan are Khan Noonien Singh, portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch, and Marla McGivers, played by Lydia Wilson. Khan, the genetically enhanced villain from the original series, and McGivers, the scientist who helped him, find themselves at the heart of this new podcast.
