Is William Shatner Going Country?

Captain Kirk may be Captain Country soon enough.

William Shatner has signed a new record deal with Heartland Records Nashville, according to a press release.

While it’s not immediately clear if the legendary actor is dipping his toes into country music, he is said to be “currently working on a very special project that will be released later this year.” 

Shatner is no stranger to country music. He and Brad Paisley are good friends, and the Star Trek star even appeared in Brad’s music videos for “Online” and “Celebrity.” Brad has also appeared on Shanter’s Seeking Major Tom album in a cover of “Space Cowboy.”

Shatner has released a total of eight albums, including his most recent Ponder the Mystery in 2013.

No official release date for his new project has been announced.
