Features

By GustavoLeao / 19:35, 8 June 2007 / Star Trek: Nemesis

William Shatner has posted a new video message on his "Shatner Vision" feature of his web site, talking a bit more about the recent rumors about his return to the role of Captain Kirk in J.J. Abrams Star Trek XI movie. Here is a transcript of the video, cortesy of Trek Movie Report.

"I know nothing. It kind of...makes me feel bad. I know nothing. I know less than you people out there because I don't read about it, I am not paying much attention to it. So if you hear anything send us an email so you can tell us whether you hear of any information. You know how the tabloids pay for gossip information about celebrities, well celebrities are now paying for gossip information about studios."

You can watch the video at WilliamShatner.com.

Um, Kirok, Batman II as you put it or "The Dark Knight" is out in July 2008, isn't Abrams trek movie out in June 2208 or slated for fall of 2008? I don't know where you got your false info from.

With something as big as Star Trek, to not answer the Shatner question at this point and to even keep HIM in the dark, is terrible. HE of all people has a right to know.

HE of all people has NO right to know. I don't know what makes you think Shatner deserves to know anything about the film. I like the man but he's an actor, after all. He had his meet-and-greet with Abrams - an actor talking with the producer/writer of the project. And if Abrams wants to pursue him for a role - great, then both parties talk further and negotiate terms; if not - Abrams owes nothing to Shatner. This is a business - and that's all STAR TREK is - an entertainment product.
