William Shatner Says Abrams Wants Kirk and Spock in Star Trek XI

Features

By GustavoLeao / 10:29, 12 November 2006 / Star Trek: Nemesis

Star Trek star William Shatner revealed more about his recent meeting with Star Trek XI producer J.J. Abrams at a fan convention in Springfield, Massachusetts on Saturday night (Nov. 11). He was talking about the film Generations when he made this comment.



"I had a talk with J.J. Abrams a while ago and they were writing a new script – and we are all hoping it will be wonderful." Shatner told the audience "And he said, they were going to get the Kirk and Spock characters in there. And I said, "How will you do that, I'm dead." (laughter). I said, "That's a problem." So, they are wrestling with that death, OK."

Thanks to 'Ray Kelly' for the submission.

Here is what will transpire, mark my word: The film will take place in the 24th century (or early 25th, which is plausible) after the events of Nemesis. It is clear Spock will have a large role in talks between the Federation and Romulans (he might even meet Pardak in this one). There will be a reason for Spock to contact Kirk for some matter of galactic importance, hence, he will devise a way (he is Spock of course) to go to the Nexus and there the movie will have its scenes with Kirk and Spock, provided Shatner and Nimoy sign up. Then, of course, we will have the flashbacks to the Academy with Matt Damon strutting around in that glittery shirt with the christmas ornament on it, and some other bloke with pointy ears...voila, Star Trek XI..
