Star Trek: Picard reaches its Season 1 finale this weekend, and a new teaser gives us a glimpse of the show’s first climax.

The series sees Patrick Stewart reprise his iconic role as the Starfleet legend, who has since retired in France on his family’s vines, but it’s not long until his traumatic past comes back to catch up with him: while he has been looking to find a new life firmly on the ground with his dog (named Number One), he’s soon approached by someone who prompts him to start an investigation that takes him back to Starfleet – and to his own past.

Joining Stewart on screen are Michelle Hurd (Blindspot), Alison Pill (The Newsroom), Harry Treadaway (Penny Dreadful), Isa Briones (American Crime Story: Versace), Santiago Cabrera (Salvation) and Evan Evagora. Old friends also returning include Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine), Brent Spiner (Data/B4) and Jonathan Del Arco (Hugh the Borg), not to mention Will Riker himself (Jonathan Frakes).

Episode 10 sees a final confrontation on the synthetics’ homeworld, Coppelius, which pits Picard and his team against the Romulans, as well as the synths who seek to safeguard their existence at all costs.

Written by Michael Chabon and directed by Akiva Goldsman, the episode premieres on Amazon Prime Video on Friday 27th March – within 24 hours of its US debut on CBS All-Access. Here’s the teaser – or you can watch along with our weekly episode reviews here.
