Sci Fi Wire posted a new interview with Free Enterprise director Robert Meyer Burnett in which he talks about the upcoming sequel. Here are few excerpts of the article.
"We met with [William] Shatner a couple months back," Burnett said. "We [had] talked to him over the years about it. There's one story element that he has always maintained that we keep."
Shatner, who is Jewish, will preach from the Jewish holy books. "There's a plot element where he actually becomes a rabbi," Burnett said. "That's something that he's constantly reminding [me]. He's like, 'That's still in the plot?' I'm like, 'Yes, there's actually a scene atop Masada with him.'"
"Finally," Burnett said. "I think obviously the success of the new Star Trek movie [attracted financiers]. I think it's time. It's time."
More from Burnett can be found here.
Shatner wanted Nimoy to be a part of this too. For a while he talked about being on a pilgrimage to Israel and being lost, and the two heroes had to enlist the help of Nimoy to go find Shatner.
Whatever it is, Free Enterprise was great- and I look forward to #2. Maybe they will try and deliver it around ST12.
