Shatner Wasn't Initially Too Keen on Khan in Star Trek IIStar Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was a success on the strength of its villain. But the William Shatner wasn’t sure a returning series villain was such a good idea. Talking to IGN to promote the 3. Shatner shared that he didn’t want to look to the series for inspiration at all for Star Trek II. He said: I recall that they began to talk about the second movie, and the talk began to be about what segment of the 7. And I kept saying, why do we want to go to a segment?

Why don’t we invent something absolutely new? And the people in charge were much more aware than I was that the fans would be more sympathetic to. And they were absolutely right that there was a ramification doing it that way, and the fact that the actor . Montalban’s performance in that film is timeless, and the conflict between Kirk and Khan is one of the best character beats in all of Trek. In my opinion, Star Trek isn’t flush with all that many compelling interpersonal conflicts, especially not with regards to villains. The Full Pop Aye (2017) Movie here.

There are great characters, absolutely, but plotting often tends to push more conceptual than personal, toward big scifi ideas and away from psychological motivations on the part of the cast. Which isn’t necessarily a criticism! The Full Monster Trucks (2017) Movie. But it’s part of why Khan sings here, and why he’s such a memorable presence in Star Trek II. He offers something we don’t see much in the franchise.

Anyway, we can be glad Shatner got overruled by writer/director Nicholas Meyer and crew. Pity the same couldn’t be said for Star Trek V.
