William Shatner Confirms Talks for Star Trek Return at 93 Years Old

SNW will end with Kirk in the centre seat, the real question is will they lead into a ‘TOS: Year One’ starring Wesley and Peck or not?
 
You know they could have Shatner do that live action comedy being done by Tawny Newsome. Use some deaging graphics to make him look like he did in Generations. He has been brought out of cold storage and he is on vacation.
 
I fell for it! Should have known they wouldn't do that. They are saving him for the Janeway show. :)
 
They actually had a New Voyages short story where Shatner, Nimoy, and Kelly were beamed aboard the Enterprise of a parallel universe and had to actually act out their roles.

I got it in a box somewhere, I think.
I suspect they lifted this idea from "Visit to A Weird Planet Revisited" from 1976, sequel to an earlier story "Visit to a Weird Planet" (1968), where Kirk, Spock and McCoy found themselves in the Paramount filming studios after a transporter accident.

Kirk finally tries to live out his retirement but he’s now a big celebrity so he’s being hounded?

I could really go for that. TOS got 3 seasons and IIIRC 21 animated episodes.

Why not have 1 or 2 seasons of SNW with Kirk, Spock, Bones, Scotty, Sulu, and Uhura on the Enterprise, showing the beginning of Kirk's command of the ship. Bring in Gary Mitchell as well.

I only want this if they go away from late TOS stuff, and actually center on characters like Lee Kelso, gary Mitchell, Liz Dehner, Alden and Piper. So many of them are barely developed. If Sulu, not on the bridge yet. Maybe Rand. Maybe Kevin Riley. No McCoy. No Chekov. Don't retread things we already have seen a million times.
 
Liz Dehner is a "new hire." Not much room for adventures before her demise.

They've rewritten so much else, giving that a pass would be a very tiny thing for them. Gary's coldness and attitude towards her could be a result of stuff thats happened already. If I'm supposed to get over all sorts of things that I've complained about, they can do this for me. Lmfao. (half joking... but since I already insist its in a rewritten timeline, this wouldn't bother me at all.)

"PIPER: Life sciences ready, sir. This is Doctor Dehner, who joined the ship at the Aldebaran colony."

That could have been months ago, and the statement was just a reminder to those that she hadn't interacted with directly yet. Doesn't say specifically who would know that.

Kirk and Mitchell don't seem to know her. She definitely "knows" them, though. :lol:
 
Just saying, with some of the other changes and rewrites, and all the times I have been told that its just drawing in between and changing perspective on the characters, this would be a very minor things to get over. if we can create entire relationships, put people on the ship ages before they should, and change people's race, then this is barely a drop in the bucket. If I'm forced to accept it or other things, than I am going to use the same mechanic to push for something I want lol.
