Couple updates on crew news, show is making a lot of good moves early on here. Hopefully it translates to success!
Nicholas Meyer (writer/director of Wrath of Khan and The Undiscovered Country, two of the best films) joins new series as writer and producer.

Rod Roddenberry, Gene's son, signs on as a producer. More for the name than anything, but still cool to have a Roddenberry involved.

Meyer on the direction the new series is heading:

The one thing I can relate to you is that The Undiscovered Country—according to Bryan [Fuller]—is a real sort of taking off point, or touchstone for how I guess he’s thinking about the direction of the new show. I don’t want to be misquoted and I don’t want to misquote him, but he’s fond of that film. Let’s put it that way.

I think that Bryan [Fuller]—who is a very clever fellow—has ideas—some of which I’ve heard—that are innovative and different. Different is what got me interested.
