The second season of the American television series Star Trek: Picard features Jean-Luc Picard as he and his companions attempt to save the future after time is broken. The season is being produced by CBS Television Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment, with Akiva Goldsman and Terry Matalas serving as showrunners.
Patrick Stewart stars as Picard, reprising his role from the series Star Trek: The Next Generation as well as other Star Trek media. Alison Pill, Isa Briones, Evan Evagora, Michelle Hurd, Santiago Cabrera, Jeri Ryan, Orla Brady, and Brent Spiner also star. A second season of the series was in development for months before being officially announced in January 2020, with Matalas joining the series ahead of the planned departure of first season showrunner Michael Chabon, who remained as a writer and executive producer.
Delayed from a planned June 2020 production start by the COVID-19 pandemic, filming began in California in February 2021 and lasted until September, shooting back-to-back with the third season.
The season is expected to premiere on the streaming service Paramount+ in February 2022, and consist of 10 episodes.

If not... A short synopsis: Speaking to Inverse about his new book, his thoughts on fandom, and his love of old comedies, Brent Spiner also revealed a huge twist for Picard Season 2.
Although he played a hitherto unknown secret human brother of Data in Season 1 — Altan Soong — Spiner says he’s not returning to play that character in Season 2. In fact, he’s not playing any character that he’s ever played before. It’s not Lore. It’s not B-4. It’s certainly not Data.
“I can tell you I’m not Data,” Spiner says firmly, explaining at the time of the interview that he would wrap filming of Picard Season 2 on September 2, 2021. “I know they haven’t revealed much about me being in the show. I can tell you I’m a member of the Soong family. And, that I’m not playing a character I’ve ever played before.”
