Earlier this month and ahead of the series' May 5th premiere, Paramount+ released the first official key art poster for the Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn, and Ethan Peck-starring Star Trek: Strange New Worlds– one that does a fine job of tying together the struggle between making a life on Earth or boldly going where no one has gone before. Now, the streaming service has confirmed that Nami Melumad (An American Pickle, Absentia) has been tapped as the score composer for the series original score and has been recording the score for the first season in Los Angeles over the past several months. Melumad joins Jeff Russo (Star Trek: Discovery & Picard, Legion), who composed the main and titles music.
