Nyota Uhura has arrived on the Enterprise. Although each episode of the forthcoming Paramount+ series — Star Trek: Strange New Worlds — is designed to tell self-contained stories, one arc running through the show will be the origin of Uhura’s career in Starfleet. Unlike the Nichelle Nichols version of the character in The Original Series or Zoe Saldaña’s take in the three “reboot” films, Celia Rose Gooding is starting at the beginning.
