The second season of the American animated television series Star Trek: Prodigy follows a group of young aliens who join Admiral Kathryn Janeway on a mission to find the original crew of the USS Protostar, and to learn more about Starfleet as they train to be warrant officers. The season was produced by CBS Eye Animation Productions and Nickelodeon Animation Studio in association with Secret Hideout, Roddenberry Entertainment, and Brothers Hageman Productions. Kevin and Dan Hageman served as showrunners.
Brett Gray, Ella Purnell, Jason Mantzoukas, Angus Imrie, Rylee Alazraqui, and Dee Bradley Baker voice the young warrant officers, with Jimmi Simpson, John Noble, Robert Beltran, Kate Mulgrew, Robert Picardo, Jameela Jamil, and Wil Wheaton also providing voices for the series. Nickelodeon ordered two seasons of Prodigy in April 2019 and the Hageman brothers were attached as showrunners. Ben Hibon was announced as director and creative lead in August 2020. The writers split the season into two 10-episode "mini-arcs".
The series was moved from Nickelodeon to Paramount+ in February 2021, and the second season was set to premiere in late 2023.
