This was a crowd funded thing that was supposed to film a pilot episode to pitch to CBS for a new Star Trek series. I guess they turned it down and made it a movie instead?

ok going out on a limb here..."crowd funding"....not major investors just a bunch of regular people putting money in?

Yep via kick starter. Last I heard they were still in production (bout 6 months ago). I guess they finished up and cbs turned them down cause I haven't heard any thing since.




Edit: there we go

There are a few rather "ambitious" fan films out there each one believes CBS will take them on as the next series.

This doesn't look like my cup of tea.

We are very pleased to announce that Star Trek: Renegades will be producing further episodes!
As promised to our backers, we engaged the top entertainment attorney in LA who has exceptional connections to CBS and Paramount. For reasons we are not able to disclose, CBS cannot move forward with Star Trek Renegades at this time - or any Star Trek series for that matter.
We have nothing but praise for CBS. Their approach in allowing these independent productions supported by fans is enlightened and progressive. They deserve kudos for understanding that it is us -- the fans -- that keep Star Trek alive.
So, we are excited and pleased to announce that we will be moving forward with Renegades as an independently produced fan-supported Internet TV Series!
Our current film will be denoted as Episode 1 (the pilot) and we are actively writing Episodes 2 and 3. Walter Koenig has agreed to reprise Admiral Chekov in this two-part episode, with Episode 2 ending with a cliffhanger, and Walter has decided that Episode 3 will be his final performance as Chekov.
We are so honored to work with Walter, who will be an active participant in the writing and production.

In addition to most of our returning cast, we also plan to bring in many fellow Trek stars and their familiar characters to join us.
As we complete the final fulfillment of all our rewards, we will be announcing a new crowdfunding drive for the next two episodes.
Beyond that, however, we have an innovative new plan for funding subsequent episodes. Our goal is to produce 12 episodes a year, or roughly one per month! To accomplish this, we’ll use conventional episodic television production schedules, including shooting each episode in 7-8 days, editing and scoring the episode over the next month, then completing the VFX over the following 2-3 months. And this is now possible since we have the core Renegades team in place, and most of the difficult and time-consuming VFX work was accomplished for the pilot.
We hope you enjoyed Renegades and will continue to support our Series. We have multiple story arcs in the works which will extend over multiple episodes and even seasons!

Sweet! Thanks T'Hor!

I'd be totally alright if they used the team from Axanar.
