William Shatner (born March 22, 1931) is a Canadian actor, author, producer, and director. In his seven decades of television, Shatner became a cultural icon for his portrayal of James T. Kirk, Captain of the USS Enterprise, in the Star Trek franchise. He has written a series of books chronicling his experiences playing Captain Kirk and being a part of Star Trek, and has co-written several novels set in the Star Trek universe. He has written a series of science fiction novels called TekWar, which were adapted for television.
Shatner also played the eponymous veteran police sergeant in T. J. Hooker (1982-86) and hosted the reality-based television series, Rescue 911 (1989-96), which won a People's Choice Award for the Favorite New TV Dramatic Series. Shatner also appeared in the NBC series, 3rd Rock from the Sun in seasons 4 and 5 as the role of the "Big Giant Head" whom the alien characters of the Series reported to. From 2004 until 2008, he starred as attorney Denny Crane in the final season of the legal drama The Practice and its spinoff series Boston Legal, a role that earned him two Emmy Awards.
Shatner has also worked as a musician, an author, a director, and a celebrity pitchman.
Sir Patrick Stewart OBE (born 13 July 1940) is an English actor whose career has included roles on stage, television, and film in a career spanning almost six decades. He is a multiple time Olivier, Golden Globe, Emmy, Screen Actors Guild and Saturn Award nominee.
Beginning his career with a long run with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Stewart received the 1979 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for his performance in Antony and Cleopatra on the West End. Stewart's first major screen roles were in BBC-broadcast television and film during the mid-late 1970s, including Hedda, and the I, Claudius miniseries.
In the 1980s, Stewart began working in American television and film, with roles such as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation and its successor films, as Professor Charles Xavier in the X-Men series of superhero movies, the lead of the Starz TV series Blunt Talk, and voice roles such as CIA Deputy Director Avery Bullock in American Dad!. Having remained with the Royal Shakespeare Company, in 2008 Stewart played King Claudius in Hamlet on the West End and won a second Olivier Award.
Malcolm McDowell (born Malcolm John Taylor; 13 June 1943) is an English actor, known for his boisterous and sometimes villainous roles. He trained as an actor at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
Throughout a career spanning over fifty years, McDowell has played varied film roles across different genres as a character actor. He is perhaps best known for the controversial roles of Alex DeLarge in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange (1971), Aces High (1976) as Gresham, the title character in Tinto Brass's Caligula (1979), and Mick Travis in Lindsay Anderson's trilogy of if...., O Lucky Man! and Britannia Hospital (1968-82). He is also known for his work in Cat People (1982), Star Trek Generations (1994), Tank Girl (1995), the 2007 remake of Halloween and its 2009 sequel, Halloween II, Easy A (2010) and The Artist (2011).
McDowell has had recurring roles on numerous television series such as Entourage, Heroes and The Mentalist. He narrated the documentary The Compleat Beatles (1982), and in recent years, has become a prolific voice actor in films, television series and video games such as Call of Duty: Black Ops III. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2012.
The fact that these two get along so well, and have absolutely zero conflict, says a lot about their character.
It's called "Acting". 😉 They play characters that get along and characters that don't get along for decades. lol. While it is likely they do get along because they are good human beings, cons. actors are expected to perform for the audiences.
Well also Patrick Stewart never had to worry about Bill Shatner taking screen time away from him, being he was a tv star in his own right. Whereas George Takei, James Doohan, Walter Koenig, Nichell Nicols all had to play third fiddle to Bill Shatner thus causing intense career fallouts.
Also unlike Star Trek which had Bill, Leonard and Dee as the main stars, Star Trek: The Next Generation, the characters were all more of ensemble with equal screen time.
This was awesome!
Interesting that Patrick Stewart cites Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and that it ended up as a title for The Orville.
Their both great!!
Being from Canada and a fan of the original series
I have to say Kirk.
Sorry Patrick, your second.
Inner Light was also the very best episode that series ever produced. Sheer genius. It contains several essences of Truth in counterpoint with one another, playing mysteries against one another so as to reveal a Truth which could not be realized without being "inwardly known", just like the essence of someone's life condensed into a few minutes, or ages condensed into one generation, a world condensed into one act. Second best, perhaps in some ways better, would be "Measure of a Man".
I love that they both love motor racing :)
Love Sir Patrick’s boots !
Malcolm McDowell is such a funny and talented person. Patrick Stewart and Malcolm McDowell standing up. Malcolm McDowell: well sit down
Patrick Stewart: no thank you. Malcolm McDowell: ok I will then he sits just hilarious!
this is an amazing convention!in Quebec,canada!from:betsye j.thomas
He did a great impression of a nerd asking a question.
two best captains
Yes!
These guys are Giants no doubt about it !
Is it me, or could Stewart play an excellent older Steve Jobs in some "What if" reality....?
"Da ah ah ah ...." - William Shatner
Star Trek next generation was like a soap opra, like days of our lives. Patrick Stewart is best in the xmen movies
Don’t ever compare Star Trek to a soap opera. WTF.
Haha That was GREAT!
Captains on the bridge! Captains on the bridge!
"City Across the River"? Yeah, Bill.
That was funny i think he was city on the edge of forever
the one dislike must be a romulan :-)
Could be a Klingon...
racefaceec90 Or George Takei
+racefaceec90 Hey, we are a great race!
+Adi Adrian Hahaa! good one!
5 dislikes... 2 times romulans , 2 times cardasians and 1 time Q just to troll
Great cut down on Abrams trash movies...
The two best captains Star trek has ever had period!
Agreed
Don’t forget cap. Janeway and Sisko
@@swifty1969 no one has forgot them but Kirk and Picard are by far the best captains star trek will ever have
@@leonardmccoy9178 as for myself, Janeway is up there with them.
@@swifty1969 she's good better than sisko but not a touch on Jim or Jean
The Jar Jar Abrams Star Treks are horrible.
That bridge set alone is enough to make you wonder. Everything is so white and shiny - your eyes would go buggy in a few days from working in that place.
Anything Jar Jar Abrams is horrible :P
Hey grandpa, you forgot to take your member berries again?
No but seriously. They're way better than the TOS TNG MOVIES.
But I'm sad that they've just become action movies instead of exploration.
Still, at least the franchise is alive now. Before Abrams came in it was dead as a doornail.
If anything, Abrams brought back Star Trek.
DtoTheE Abrams has done nothing 4 Star Trek but made it a Bayformer joke apart from a bad movie & Ep here & there Star Trek was doing just fine nobody wanted a reboot.
***** Ha the last 2 movies where flops & mostly forgotten to the public nowadays also Better Acting? dude no Just no :P Go away Please
These men are living legends! Love them both so much!
Both Shatner and Stewart have my utmost admiration & respect as actors. :)
can you still say that after "Picard"?
They "made it so"
What show? Its like talking about the Star Wars sequels.... those don't exist either unless you allow them to be lol@@blitzmom2674
It's March 24, 2023 and Shatner doesn't seem to age...
We just saw him on March 9 at the Atlanta Symphony Hall.
They showed the Wrath Of Kahn on a big screen and then Shatner and a young lady who served as his co-host sat on 2 chairs around a coffee table in the middle of the stage .
Shatner went on regaling the 1800 people in the auditorium for 90 minutes, walking from end to end of the stage and back and forth repeatedly like a teenager, his voice booming like he was still a young stage actor.
He sat down and up from that chair with ease at least dozens of times thought out the performance. It was a dazzling display of youthful vigor 13 days before his 92nd birthday. It was truly amazing. Shatner is a geriatric wonder. He actually still competes in equestrian events.
He really does have incredible energy and agility for his age, not many 92yr olds are flying around to conventions and giving talks as often as he does.
"And then, I reported you for elder abuse."
Never heard a better way to diffuse a potentially awkward situation.
Damn William Shatner looks good for being 81 years old
Damn yes. I thought he was younger than Patrick and here he is around, nine years older.
My Trek Best. Out.
He’s older maybe 88, Patrick is 80 now!😼
90 now!
This was a lot of fun to watch, and the surprise visit by Malcolm was the icing on the cake!
That's it...time to watch Star Trek again...
I love Willam Shatner and TOS !!!!!!
everyone does. Enterprise & TOS only series.
OH Man, this is maybe, one of the very, best interviews, conferences, whatever you want to call it, that I think, I've ever seen. Over a hour long, and it felt like a few minutes and I was pissing myself all the way through. Utterly, priceless. So happy I watched.
My Very Best. Out.
I can't argue with your comment!
Stewart contradicts all the BS things other Star Trek cast members have said about Shatner over the years.
Like?
@Ikcerab Sin as someone who worked at Paramount he's an asshole nemoy was a joy and so was everyone else but he thinks he's God gift he's a curse
@Ikcerab Sin ua-cam.com/video/4qv16CBWkeU/v-deo.html did he really though?
@Ikcerab Sin Exactly. I don't dislike Shatner (he will always be my Captain Kirk), but he was known to be hard to worth with back in the day, and it's not just George and Walter who've said so. Jimmy Doohan and Nichelle Nichols also took issue with him. Even Leonard Nimoy stopped speaking to him towards the end of his life if I'm not mistaken. If it was just one person saying he was difficult, I would take it with a grain of salt because there are two sides to every story. But the fact that pretty much *all* his co-stars have said this (whether they reconciled with him or not) is a strong indicator that it's true. If Shatner wasn't in the limelight, he got angry. In Walter's book "Warped Factors," there's a part where he details an incident during the filming of the episode "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" where basically the episode's director called Shatner out for trying to be front and center in a shot, and Shatner cussed him out.
@jack bauer Envy did not allow them to recognize WS's star, which obviously overshadowed them. WS created Captain Kirk and will never be surpassed. WS is a treasure.
Now William Shatner has finally seen space for real in a Blue Origin rocket, Patrick Stewart should be next to experience this life changing event! Come on Patrick!
I want to see a TNG prequel movie, screw the JJ Abrams reboot.
Adam Johnson Wil Wheaton as Riker and Idris Elba as Worf! ;-)
And James MacAvoy as Picard?
If you were able to meet one of them and get to know The Who would it be? Willam Shater or Patrick Stewart If someone was asking me I would say Patrick Stewart because he would probably be a nice English gentleman. I’m not sure about Willam shatter
Canadians are nice too.
The two best captains of the Enterprise 🙌
Kirk & Archer
William Shatner was so sexy as Captain Kirk, and he still looks good!
and he's 90 now and just went to space -simply amazing
its The City on the Edge of Forever...not city across the river...but its ok i love both of them...we all make mistakes..:-) i loved this whole video!!! so awesome!!
Great actors
good men and
Good examples of kindness courage and carrying on when things got tough the though got going
God bless you gentlemen ladies and Gentle Beings
Salut
He tells stories like he's acting out early Captain Kirk.
(guest)
Interesting interaction between the 2 Star Trek Captains.
Wish the audience wouldn't scream at every opportunity.
☺
Me too, although I totally understand their excitement
McDowell delivered his line sooo gourgeously at 51:11 That made goosebumps
LOL i grew up in Montreal many moons ago, soooo funny and delightful to hear Shatner reminescing.
oh jeez the Morris Minor, my parents' car when I was a baby. Too funny
Two great actors who made millions around the world imagine what a much better future for mankind would be like.
I don't care what anyone has to say but in my opinion, they are the best acting Star Trek captains individually in their own right as well as good solid friends in real life--this was not acting but genuine friendship!♥
I met them both at Fan Expo in August and... WHAT a thrill!! Even if it was just for 30 seconds (Had to move the line along) *Sighs*
Patrick had Arthritis, so we couldn't shake his hand, and he requested no pictures, but still... so polite... so gentlemanly.
Shatner says his favorite episode is...City Across the River. oy vey!
Shatner’s doumentary on TNG was pretty good.
Two legendary actors
P.S. Three legendary actors ;)
The only question I ever found hard was who do I like? Kirk or Picard?
Of course the answer is Captain Pike.
Both!!
Terrific stuff. Both compelling people. Got to say, that captain Picard role of Patrick Stewart is just phenomenal. Holds up so well, gift to the world. Great performances of all time
Three legends I admire
Couldn't they get them a couple of clip-on mikes?
This is absolutely hilarious and amazing wow
"Fifty years...""Forty-six."
+Bondek Interesting how it's like he adjusted it for the year that we (you and I) are watching this :-)
Its Nov 2021 and Shatner looks just the same. Amazing actors and amazing people.
Legends forever....................
This video should be retitled: “Two great actors get asked too many horrible questions.”
Two if the greatest cpatins in star trek
Lol, they're a great comedy duo, they could take this act on the road.
These two should do stand up together, great chemistry
Fantastic chemistry. Agreed.
Sir Patrick Stewart reciting the Bard -- one word: goosebumps!
What's amazing to me is that watching this today in 2023, knowing that the Picard Series hadn't started when this was filmed .... how much more Patrick would have to contribute to the Star Trek universe.
James T Kirk and Jean-Luc Picard reunite
Kirk will always be the greatest captain, but Stewart is probably the classiest, coolest guy
55:05 - Well, the experience of a lifetime for everyone in that room, surely, goodness.
Imagine, friendships and working relationships that have lasted for as long as many of us have been alive. I was one year old when Rodney and Patrick first, met. Wow.
My Best. Out.
2 great Shakespearean actors .
Great view of the backs of audience members' shirts.
omg yes you should do it more often...that was just the best, thanks for posting
GREAT banter!!!
This was fantastic, and so incredibly funny at times! I love the way they interacted with each other and with the fans!
"I count Shatner as among the most valuable THINGS in my life"
So fab too see these two together! But sad news today about Nichelle Nichols R.I.P.
She was a classy lady. Spent so much time with each person at conventions
I stopped it as soon as the guy asked about there never being an openly gay character.
Too close for comfort?? You can't catch it like a cold, pilgrim...
Captain Kirk has more character. Mr. Pickard finds himself in subtle humorous situations..
Everything about this is fantastic.
I rather enjoyed this panel. Love these guys!
Giants!
I loved the film Generrations it was by far the best and my most favorite of all the Star Trek Movies. I was 7 years old when the original series first aired in 1966.
Good health to you, my fellow star trek fan. Wasnt even in planning then ;)
I used to slightly favor Stewart for favorite Captain. Then I saw Picard.
Now I know the better one is Shatner.
Portrayal of a good captain 20 years ago I loved Stewart. But Picard Season 1 and 2 screwed up the result. There hasn't been any good star trek (aside from fan and Orville) for nearly 10 years now.
The Caps! damn i love watching these guys
This was legendary.
Gurney Hallack and Denny Crane!
They both did Shakespeare plays!☺️😼
He means City on the Edge of Forever
Does kind of sound like city across the river.
Maybe "City Across The River" was a working/shooting title?
mr shatner was going to come to my town of Cardiff, uk, in 2020 to watch and then talk about wrath of khan with an audience.. it got cancelled 🙁
90s is still my favourite as i was born in 1988 loved seeing the opening of star trek on tv so good
So, yo missed most of the nineties. Lol.
Shatner and Stewart Perfect 🥰for each other
there are some fans that are just magical....this was one.
Shattner is so entertaining
Whenever these two guys show up together, magic is in the air. Awesome!
Amazing panel, thanks for sharing
This stage event was a very good time ! 😁
Redlettermedia needs to get that colombian star trek spin off
Love the video but @2:32min could do w/o the schmuck fucking up the whole vibe by being in the shot!
(guest)
Wm. Shatner was perfect as Captain Kirk.
He gets criticism for taking the limelight, but hey , that's what stars often do...
If he'd been a shy retiring wallflower, he couldn't have done such a good job...
As they say, "Credit where it's due "( lend us a quid, guvna...).
I wasn't keen on the other series, but it was nice to have " one of ours" (Sir Patrick Stewart) in the top role.
I appreciate his rich voice and very clear diction.
Love from England.
🖖💞🌷
Agreed, I love Bill as Captain Kirk. That show wouldn't have been as good as it was if he wasn't the character he was. Nimoy would have played Spock differently also. The show would've had a cult following regardless but not as popular imo.
love it
Kirk is so far beyond Picard, not even a captain, 100 vs 1
Guys I have the antidote how to do the perfect spin off can I talk?
Star trek was always more relatable than star wars...but the expanse tops all..sorry..
amazing!
Patrick Stewart was here in Seattle a few weeks ago for the Emerald City Comicon; I had tried to go see him, but unfortunately the lines were huge and everyone crowded the table so I couldn't see him or move in to get a better look. I did see Will Wheaton though. I went the day before Stewart was going to be doing a panel.
I also grew up in NDG Montréal on Girouard and Monkland.
I want to ask Patrick what his favorite TOS episode is, and Shatner what his favorite TNG episode is.
blacksheepwall79 Shatner hasn’t watched TNG and Patrick has watched pieces of TOS
It would hurt Shatner's ego to watch tng
