Christopher Pike is a character in the Star Trek science fiction franchise. He was portrayed by Jeffrey Hunter in the original Star Trek pilot episode, "The Cage", as captain of the USS Enterprise.

The subsequent Star Trek episode "The Menagerie" combines footage from "The Cage" with a new framing story, featuring Sean Kenney as a scarred, disabled, older Pike. Bruce Greenwood portrays a version of Pike in the films Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), which takes place in an alternative timeline. The second season of Star Trek: Discovery, which is set prior to "The Menagerie" but after "The Cage", has Pike assume temporary command of the USS Discovery.
