- “I’ve turned down a lot of offers to do documentaries before,” Shatner told Variety in an interview published Thursday.
- “But I don’t have long to live. Whether I keel over as I’m speaking to you or 10 years from now, my time is limited, so that’s very much a factor. I’ve got grandchildren. This documentary is a way of reaching out after I die.”
- The Canadian actor went on to reflect on getting older, saying, “The sad thing is that the older a person gets the wiser they become and then they die with all that knowledge. And it’s gone. It’s not like I’m going to take my ideas or my clothing with me.”
