Paramount+ Unveils Star Trek: Section 31 – A Straight-to-Streaming Spin-Off

Following the success of Star Trek: Lower Decks and in anticipation of Strange New Worlds Season 3, Paramount+ has released a new Star Trek film directly to its streaming platform. Clocking in at approximately 100 minutes, this special focuses on Michelle Yeoh's character, Philippa Georgiou, from Star Trek: Discovery, and her involvement with the clandestine Starfleet division, Section 31.

Critical reception, however, has been mixed. IGN's Jordan Hoffman gave the film a scathing 2/10 review, stating it would likely frustrate longtime fans while failing to engage others. He praised Yeoh's fight scenes as the only redeeming quality.

Despite the negative reviews, you might still be curious. If you're considering watching Star Trek: Section 31, here's where to find it:
