Veteran Star Trek Actor William Morgan Sheppard Has Small Role in New Movie

Features

By GustavoLeao / 05:42, 19 March 2008 / Star Trek: Nemesis

Den of Geek just posted an exclusive interview with veteran Star Trek actor William Morgan Sheppard, in which he reveals that he has a small role in the upcoming Star Trek prequel movie. 

Sheppard is a British actor who already played three characters in Star Trek - Doctor Ira Graves in the second season TNG episode "The Schizoid Man", a Klingon Commander in Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country and an alien named Qatai in the Star Trek Voyager episode "Bliss". Here are few excerpts of the interview.

You have a long and continuing association with Star Trek, even up until recent weeks, you were saying?


Yes, just did the J.J. Abrams one. Can't say anything about that obviously.

You can't say anything at all?

No I can't, and you damn well know it [laughs]! But yeah, I'm only playing a very small part.

Is it a repeat of any role you have played previously?

No, I will say that much, definitely not. In fact I am playing a different race, I've done Klingons...actually, I am going to be judging as a Klingon, though I won't be dressing up as one for it, at one of those big conventions up in Maryland. That one's in July, and they want me to go. It's a Klingon convention. Can you believe it?

Just for Klingons?

It seems to be, yes. But I thought the Star Trek ones were apparently coming to an end. I am in at the tail end of it. I only started doing it towards the end of last year, and this year they have booked me for about four different things. I am coming over to do some, with my son.
 
The full interview is here.

That would be BlankReg (Reg had blanked himself from the official computer database of that society).
