William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill sets an April video-on-demand release date for home viewing. Directed by Alexandre O. Philippe, William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill is an intimate portrait of the legendary actor best known for generations as Star Trek's Captain James T. Kirk. You Can Call Me Bill was released on March 22, which was Mr. Shatner's 93rd birthday, and had a successful theatrical run of over 500 screens.

Legion M, the world's first fan-owned entertainment company, and home entertainment distribution company DECAL, announce William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill will be available for video-on-demand rent or purchase everywhere on April 26th. The documentary is also now available for pre-order on Apple TV and Fandango At Home. Jeff Annison, President and Co-founder of Legion M says:

"Ever since our premiere at SXSW we’ve been chomping at the bit to get this film out for audiences to watch. This is a movie that’s been 93 years in the making— we couldn’t be more excited to partner with DECAL to make this film available everywhere movies are available to purchase or rent.”

William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill allows the legendary 93-year-old actor to look back on his life with profound clarity. Of course, Shatner touches upon his years of playing Captain Kirk in Star Trek, but this is only a fraction of Bill's career which has spanned 70 years on stage and screen. Shatner looks back on his lean years after the Star Trek TV series was canceled, his many successful acting roles, and his actual journey into space aboard Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin in 2021.

In You Can Call Me Bill, William Shatner shares his fears of how the Earth is heading toward a climate crisis, and he worries about what life will be like for his loved ones after he is gone. But along with his regrets in You Can Call Me Bill, Mr. Shatner celebrates the remarkable life he has led, the opportunities he has made the most of, and the people he has met along the way. William Shatner will always be linked to Star Trek and Captain Kirk, but You Can Call Me Bill lets him have the last word on his life as he knows it.
