The Montreal born Shatner also has ties with V.. Shatner is the father – in – law of V star Joel Gretsch ( Father Jack ).. Gretsch is married to Shatner’s daughter Melanie, and have two daughters together.. Zap2It got to recent chat with Gretsch..

” The whole family was in town.. We got to see a few events together.. It’s such an honor, the Olympics … come on, you’re part of the Olympics, representing your country, that you grew up in, it was a beautiful moment.. I was happy for the family to be able to share it with him..”

When Gretsch was asked whether Shatner will be making an appearance on V, Gretsch said he can’t guarantee he’ll ever appear on V..

” Yeah,” Gretsch says, ” I’ve got an in.. He’s so busy.. He’s got 50 different projects going on right now.. I think its unlikely, but if a role comes up, and they would ask him, if he’d be up for it … He’s just one of those guys, you know?”

The V Files has caught hold of a rumor that a big celebrity will be coming into the show at some point.. Could Shatner fit that role? He wouldn’t be the first Trekkie to join V.. As we reported earlier, Jonathan Frakes, best known for his role as Commander William T. Riker in Star Trek: The Next Generation, will be beaming aboard the crew as Director.. Frakes is directing Episode 1.06 for V: The New Series, which went into production on the 16th February, and will continue through til the 25th February, which will be aired on Tuesday 6th April 2010..
