The actor claimed ‘Trek’ creator Gene Roddenberry would “be turning in his grave at some of this stuff.”
William Shatner closed out the first night of San Diego Comic-Con in style — with plenty of cursing and a look back at his storied career.
In an hourlong chat with emcee Kevin Smith, the 91-year-old actor talked about aging, space travel (both real and fictional) and his place in the pop culture consciousness.
Shatner’s age was a running joke throughout the panel, with the actor quipping that he could die at any moment during the panel. “None of us really want that, sir, but that would be fucking incredible at Comic-Con,” Smith joked back. “People would be like, ‘He died like the legend he was.’”
