Nick Carter was being a total ‘Star Trek’ fanboy in Las Vegas while recently hanging with a pair of Captain Kirks — William Shatner and Paul Wesley.
The Backstreet Boys alum dropped by Creation Entertainment’s STLV: Trek to Vegas 2025 Convention last week … where he snapped pics with the two sci-fi stars.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ … the trio chopped it up for about 20 minutes and were very interested in one another’s work — and a lot of support was shared between the actors and musician.
Most fans know Shatner played the iconic Capt. Kirk in the original ‘Star Trek’ TV series and in several films … and Paul plays the character in the Paramount+ series “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.”
Of course … Nick was already in Vegas working — he and the group are about to kick off their highly anticipated “Into the Millennium” residency at the Sphere.
As for Shatner … he is still going strong, giving fans a thrill as he visits conventions around the country — all at the age of 94!
It’s not clear if after their chat … the trio boldly went to the craps table.
