Interestingly, season 2 will feature a major crossover event between Strange New Worlds and Star Trek: Lower Decks, as announced during the Star Trek panel at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con. While Lower Decks is an animated series, the upcoming crossover will see Tawny Newsome and Jack Quaid portraying the live-action version of their characters, Ensign Beckett Mariner and Ensign Brad Boimler, respectively.

On the same day, the streamer will also add the Blumhouse Television-produced There’s Something Wrong With The Children horror movie. The Roxanne Benjamin-directed movie stars Alisha Wainwright, Zach Gilford, Amanda Crew, Carlos Santos, and more. T.J. Cimfel and Dave White penned the script.

“When Margaret and Ben take a weekend trip with longtime friends Ellie and Thomas and their two young children, Ben begins to suspect something supernatural is occurring when the kids behave strangely after disappearing into the woods overnight,” reads the movie’s synopsis.
