"Star Trek: Discovery" has been renewed for a third season by CBS All Access, according to Deadline. Michelle Paradise has also been promoted to co-showrunner (joining Alex Kurtzman).

Paradise joined Discovery originally in 2018 as writer/co-executive producer, with her first writing credit being March 14's "Project Daedalus" episode. She previously worked on CW's "The Originals" and Logo's "Exes & Ohs."

"Her grasp of character and story detail, her drive and her focus have already become essential in ensuring the Trek legacy, and her fresh perspective always keeps us looking forward," said Kurtzman.
