William Shatner Q&A

November 9, 2006 5:11 AM

There's an interview with actor William Shatner on GameSpy, where they ask him about his voicework on Star Trek Legacy, Encounters and Tactical Assault. About trying to get his former colleagues in the game "[..] they didn't want Nimoy. The only person who wants Nimoy is his wife, and she's been having doubts".

    # Both Shatner and Star Trek co-star Leonard Nimoy are of the same ethnicity, Ashkenazi Jews of Ukrainian descent.
    # Shatner and Nimoy share the same birth-month and year, separated by only 4 days. Shatner's birthday is March 22, 1931 and Nimoy's birthday is March 26, 1931.
    # The two men also both suffer from chronic tinnitus after getting too close to an exploding special effect while working on Star Trek. Shatner's was almost debilitating but has been mitigated by retraining therapy.
    
    That's quite freaky.

      Shatner is an avid paintball player.
      That really surprises me for some reason. I never would've tagged him as a paintball player.

        There were a couple episodes of Boston Legal where he shot things (and people) with a paintball gun.
