William Shatner will not be reprising his role as the original Captain James T. Kirk in Star Trek Beyond, the actor has confirmed.
With Star Trek Beyond being released during the year of Star Trek’s 50th anniversary, there’s been speculation about the original Kirk’s return. Early rumors suggested Kirk would be seen side-by-side with Leonard Nimoy as the original Spock, prior to Nimoy’s death in 2015. Shatner himself even confirmed that the studio had contacted him about the idea, but now says that he has no involvement at all.
“There was never a conversation,” he tells SFX Magazine.
