William Shatner, Gene Roddenberry, and Leonard Nimoy came to a compromise, which Shatner believes doomed Star Trek V. Since Shatner wasn’t exactly the best director, things on the set began to fall apart.
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier was directed by Captain Kirk star William Shatner and is regarded as one of the worst movies in the franchise.
The compromise that William Shatner is referring to is his original storyline that Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry and Leonard Nimoy found to be objectionable.
William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy had their lawyers draft up a “favored nations clause” back when the original Star Trek series was still on the air.
