Shatner will appear alongside fellow Canadians Evangeline Lilly (Ant-Man and The Wasp, Lost, The Hobbit Trilogy) and Michael J. Fox (The Back to the Future Trilogy). Other guests who have been announced include Robin Lord Taylor (Gotham, The Walking Dead), Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic World 2, Thor: Ragnarok), Karen Gillan (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and 2, Doctor Who) Jennifer Morrison (Once Upon a Time, House MD) and Stranger Things Joe Keery.
