Enterprise season four
Rick Berman talks about the next series of Star Trek: Enterprise.
The latest issue of Star Trek Magazine features an interview with the executive producer of Star Trek: Enterprise, Rick Berman. Asked about series four, he told the magazine:
"We've already mapped out the first six or seven episodes, in a general sense. We've got a story beat out for the first episode.
"The Xindi arc will be resolved within the first three episodes. And when I say the Xindi arc I mean the predicament of where our characters now find themselves.
Confirming much fan speculation, Berman went on to say:
"I think that after that we've got some very high-concept mini-arcs that we're interested in. We can't do another season-long on Enterprise that involves Archer and company trying to save humanity. On the other hand, we don't feel that we want to go back to the Season One and Season Two concept of 'we're out there exploring space,' period.
"So we're in the process now Brannon, Manny Coto and myself - of developing smaller arcs - arcs that will run two, three, maybe four episodes. We've got a couple of them that I think are going to have some big surprises and things that will hearken back to perhaps The Original Series. We'll bring in some actors, and possibly some characters, that are very familiar to our audience."
Star Trek Magazine issue 116 is on sale on 15th July.
