William Shatner Wasn T The First Kirk To Meet The Gorn In Star Trek Captain kirk (william shatner) had a famous fight with a gorn but star trek: strange new worlds shows he wasn't the first kirk to meet the gorn.

New Star Trek Trailer Features William Shatner Recreating His Epic Until strange new worlds, it was assumed that the first contact with the gorn was with captain james t. kirk (william shatner), but we now know of at least two previous interactions. How can the enterprise encounter the gorn in roughly 2259 if kirk doesn’t see the gorn for the first time until 2267? the answer is simple: at no point in this episode do we ever see a gorn. The gorn are a reptilian race dating back to the original series episode "arena," where captain kirk (william shatner) battled a gorn captain. After debuting in combat against william shatner's captain kirk in star trek: the original series, a very different gorn appeared in star trek: strange new worlds.
William Shatner Wasn T The First Kirk To Meet The Gorn In Star Trek The gorn are a reptilian race dating back to the original series episode "arena," where captain kirk (william shatner) battled a gorn captain. After debuting in combat against william shatner's captain kirk in star trek: the original series, a very different gorn appeared in star trek: strange new worlds. The gorn have since appeared, or been mentioned, in various star trek books, video games, and other media properties, including the 1973 episode "the time trap" of star trek: the animated series.

Star trek: strange new worlds brings the gorn back into the timeline before captain kirk’s famous fight in “arena,” and that return raises a question: if the enterprise crew met the gorn earlier, why do kirk and spock act as if the species is new to them in the original series?. In the mirror universe, years before kirk would encounter the gorn, captain jonathan archer encountered a gorn in the star trek: enterprise episode “in a mirror darkly, part 2.”.
