Star Trek: Prodigy has always been a stealth sequel to Star Trek: Voyager, but the addition of 10 classic characters could make the continuation more explicit. Prodigy season 2 will continue the story of the young Starfleet hopefuls led by Admiral Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), as they work to rescue Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran) and the missing crew of the USS Protostar. Now that Dal R'El (Brett Gray) and his young team are working directly with the real-life Janeway instead of a hologram, there's a possibility that they could interact with more characters from Voyager.
Actor Garrett Wang has recently stated that his Star Trek: Voyager character, Harry Kim belongs to Star Trek: Prodigy. This creates the possibility that more Voyager characters will appear in Prodigy as Janeway seeks help in locating Chakotay and his missing crew. Star Trek canon has established that, except for Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), many members of the crew of the USS Voyager are still serving Starfleet officers during the Prodigy timeline. This therefore allows many Voyager characters to appear in Prodigy season 2 and beyond.
