There's a new crew in the "Star Trek" universe.

"Star Trek Discovery" hits CBS All Access, the network's online streaming service, Sunday, and the new show takes place 10 years before Captain Kirk (William Shatner) led his team into the final frontier. 

The cast includes Michelle Yeoh as Captain Philippa Georgiou, Sonequa Martin-Green as first officer Michael Burnham, Anthony Rapp as science officer Paul Stamets, and James Frain as Vulcan ambassador Sarek, Spock's (Leonard Nimoy) father.

Michelle Yeoh captains the USS Shenzhou as Philippa Georgiou.

Yeoh is best known for her roles in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and its sequel, as well as "Memoirs of a Geisha." She had a cameo in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" and will next appear in "Crazy Rich Asians."



Sonequa Martin-Green plays first officer Michael Burnham. She is second-in-command of the USS Shenzhou, serving under Captain Georgiou, and was raised by Vulcan ambassador Sarek after Klingons killed her parents.

Before heading to "Star Trek," Martin-Green was on "The Walking Dead" and "Once Upon a Time."



James Frain plays Spock's father, Ambassador Sarek. It's a younger version of the role originated by Mark Lenard. Sarek won't be on the ship; he will instead communicate through holograms.

Frain was most recently on "Orphan Black" and played Azrael on "Gotham." He's also known for his roles on "The Tudors" and "True Blood."
