William Shatner to Voice Sci-Fi Animated Web Series, ‘The Zenoids’

William Shatner is attempting to build a mini-sci-fi empire atop the foundations of being an arbiter of cool and three seasons and 79 episodes of one of the most popular television series of all time.

Last March, Shatner launched MyOuterSpace.com, an online destination that’s “part social network, part sci-fi news site, part video channel, and part production company.” He currently serves as the site’s “Admiral,” and one of his first orders of duty was to start production on a web series.

Etan Vlessing at THR reports Shatner and Amanda Tapping will both voice characters in the animated, MyOuterSpace.com original, The Zenoids. Here’s the premise:

The Zenoids will be animated in part by Jeremy Appleman, the winner of MyOuterSpace’s Toon Boom Animate Shatner Contest. The site is also tapping members of the MyOuterSpace community to help write the series. If you’re interested in submitting, you better hurry. MyOuterSpaces says, “The first and best [script] we see, we’re going to roll with,” so if you’ve ever dreamed of hearing your written words spoken in Shanter’s voice and uncanny cadence, get your finished script of six pages or less delivered ASAP.

Shatner’s gig on The Zenoids will be one of his first starring roles in a web series since his Streamy Award-winning reality vlog, The Shatner Project.
