The entire Star Trek franchise can set up Michelle Yeoh's upcoming Star Trek: Section 31 movie on Paramount+. Although Star Trek largely avoids the interconnected narratives of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the various shows within Alex Kurtzman's franchise often overlap thematically. For example, Star Trek: Picard season 1 and Star Trek: Discovery season 2 were both stories about the fears surrounding the rise of artificial intelligence, while the most recent Star Trek season finales – except Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – all saw Starfleet's starships turned against each other.
This tendency for thematic overlap could lay the groundwork for Star Trek: Section 31, ahead of its release on Paramount+. Seeding the shadowy Starfleet organization into the current shows in the Star Trek stable could be an ideal way to keep the concept fresh in viewer's minds ahead of the movie. Some Star Trek shows have already set themselves up for appearances by Section 31, and here's how every Trek show can set up Michelle Yeoh's upcoming movie.
