Exclusive: Read The Star Trek 2009 Scene Written For William Shatner
From trekmovie, Most fans can remember that one of the biggest debates around JJ Abrams Star Trek movie was about if it would (or should) include William Shatner. The film makers spoke of how they tried to find a way, but in the end felt it wouldn’t work. However, JJ Abrams revealed that Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman did write a scene for Shatner, and today we have that scene for you to read.
Putting Shatner into Star Trek (2009)
TrekMovie received the scene below from one of our trusted sources and it has been verified to be the scene written for Shatner (but never shown to Shatner). The “Alternate Scene B” actually creates alternative versions two scenes from the end of the movie: the moment between Spock Prime (Nimoy) and Spock (Quinto) in the hangar, plus the award ceremony with Kirk (Pine), Pike (Greenwood) and the Commandant (Tyler Perry).

All the comments on the page are positive, with people expressing their belief that it "would have worked" etc. But I'm really glad they didn't do it. Shatner is just nothing like Chris Pine (although Spock's stilted mannerisms and Nimoy's extreme age make the Quinto/Nimoy matchup seem plausible). And anyway it's badly written and shmaltzy and not necessary. The movie as it stands is perfect anyway.
I totally agree, although props to the writers and Abrams for finding a graceful way to shoehorn Shatner in there anyway.
I agree as well, it's perfect as it is.
