At the age of 94, Star Trek actor William Shatner is working on a star-studded heavy metal album, featuring contributions from the likes of Zakk Wylde and Henry Rollins and covers of Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden.
The film and TV star announced his as-yet-untitled record today (Thursday, February 19) via a statement from his team. Marketing materials promise “a heavy metal extravaganza powered by a veritable army of metal stars – each one personally selected and hand-picked by Shatner”, with a release date of sometime this year.
