AICN editor Hercules is claiming to have inside knowledge that William Shatner is in J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek prequel movie.
Herc, in a brief post at AICN Readers Talkback message board, told everyone not to believe the hype about Shatner not being in movie.
"By the way." Herc wrote "All publicity about Shatner not playing Old Kirk in the movie is lie. Word to your mother."
In another post, he replied to a skeptical user "I know a whole f#@*& lot about this movie that you do not. Wake up, Trekkie!!!!"
AICN was the first site to post the story about the plotline of the movie involving Romulans and time travel, so we can presume the site seems to have inside sources regarding the Star Trek film.
This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.
The original report is here.

For anyone who's guided by a headline, from a news outlet that gets quoted by Trek sites...
Contact Music reports, "Shatner To Appear in New Star Trek Movie."
Their uncredited source is WENN, which is dishing this story to the international news wires.

Spock discovers a plot to send TNG era Warbirds back to aid the Bird of Prey in destroying the Enterprise at Balance of Terror.
Spock, who is unable to communicate with Starfleet command and whose ship is underpowered to time travel backwards is forced to instead fly his ship into the Nexus.
There he meets with Kirk and convinces him to leave the Nexus to help save their earlier selves. As they ride their horses into the distance, Picard watches trying to figure out how he will defeat Soran on his own, since he isn't nearly as equipped for fistfighting as James T Kirk is.
Since they cannot defeat a Warbird with any TOS-era ships, they exit the Nexus during the Cardassian war and commandeer the Defiant, whose current commander, Worf, is only to happy to go kill some Romulans. This provides the a handy (and somewhat more believable than in Insurrection) method of awkwardly putting Michael Dorn into the movie, which appearantly now is in the Paramount constitution.
As the Defiant travels back in time and then across space to the Balance of Terror, old Kirk and Spock pick up transmissions from the TOS Enterprise, which is the only time we even see Quinto, Pine and crew in the movie.
The Defiant lays a mine on the hull of the Warbird, (since it's cloak is v.3.7 and the Warbird has only v.2.7-SP4, the Romulans never know the Defiant is within 3 meters. But before the Warbird is destroyed, Spock downloads details on a clone of Picard living with the Remans. As the situation near the neutral zone is resolved with Sarek dead amd Kirk/Spock alive, old Kirk and Spock determine that for some reason the entire TNG era is f'd beyond all recognition, almost like an evil creator had been screwing up everything since about Picards 3rd year in command of the Enterprise.
To resolve the sitution, Kirk and Spock convince Worf as well as Dax and Odo who are also on the Defiant that they have to clean up the mess of the 24th century, thus providing a plot for at least the next 4 movies.

So, the slow banana boat has just docked with the mainland. Welcome, Chiquitas!
Here in the land of skyscrapers, Team Abrams has declared their intent to include elder Kirk, and Shatner told us that JJ wants him in the story. There's time aplenty to tickle the script and ink a contract. Meanwhile, "I'm not signed up" Shat plays it perfectly straight. Gossipmongers kindled and stoked their own publicity "lie."
Coming down the creek: A dinghy of oblivious bloggers bellowing about campaigns of deception by a Bad Robot.
P.S. IESB.net says Karl Urban is confirmed for the role of Dr. "Bones" McCoy.
