William Shatner, fresh off the debut of his EPIX documentary The Captains, will continue filming the pilot for the documentary television project he’s hoping to get off the ground, entitled Fan-Addicts.
As we previously reported, Shatner began filming the pilot at Creation’s New Jersey Star Trek Convention last June.
In partnership with Creation Entertainment, Shatner will be collecting more footage for the pilot at the Las Vegas Star Trek Convention in less than two weeks, as they’ve put out a call for fans to submit stories, talking about their passion for Star Trek.
Entries must be 500 words or less and can be submitted directly to Creation, by emailing Creation’s Adam Malin (adam@creationent.com) before Friday, August 5th at 5 p.m. PST.

Last year when I heard the con was being moved to the Rio, from it’s old home at the Hilton, I was a little worried. Now with all these announcements it’s starting to feel like this is gonna be one heck of a year to be in Vegas!
