It was big event that had been taking place all day, but my interaction with him has only been really wonderful.”
Meanwhile, Shatner, as reported by The Times of India, denied the rumors of an alleged feud with the cast of Star Trek XI, while admitting that he would like to be involved in a future Star Trek project. “I wish them all the best,” said Shatner. “I certainly hope it’s a great success. If the movie is successful and they make another one, never say never as James Bond…I loved Star Trek in all its many phases. I dearly would love to be a part of it.”
Shatner also had a message for Pine. “Chris, good luck…and hold your breath. It’s going to be a whirlwind.”
