Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Spock & M'Benga Still Nameless For Now

So you remember that report earlier about how Paramount+'s Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn & Ethan Peck-starring Star Trek: Strange New Worlds revealed the first names of Babs Olusanmokun's Dr. M'Benga and Peck's Lt. Commander Spock via posters on display at Star Trek: Missions Chicago? That's where the names were listed as Dr. Jabilo M'Benga and Lt. Commander S'chn T'Gain Spock (thanks again, TrekCore)? Well, the folks over at Paramount+ want you to know that those names are not the right ones and shouldn't have been on display. Here's a look at the statement that was released earlier tonight:

At Star Trek: Mission Chicago, we inadvertently displayed posters with Spock and M'Benga's names that were incorrect. Sometimes when you work at warp speed, mistakes are made. While Spock and M'Benga do indeed have first names, they have yet to be revealed.

With Paramount+'s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds set to lift off on May 5th, here's a look at the official trailer followed by a look back at the previously-released teaser trailer:

STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS is based on the years Captain Christopher Pike manned the helm of the U.S.S. Enterprise. The series will feature fan favorites from season two of STAR TREK: DISCOVERY: Anson Mount as Captain Christopher Pike, Rebecca Romijn as Number One and Ethan Peck as Science Officer Spock. The series will follow Captain Pike, Science Officer Spock and Number One in the years before Captain Kirk boarded the U.S.S. Enterprise, as they explore new worlds around the galaxy.
