One of Hollywood's most recognizable figures for more than a half-century, Shatner, 94, has thrilled millions in his varied career. From his international breakout role of "Captain Kirk" in the original "Star Trek" series—and its numerous incarnations—to famed "T.J. Hooker" in the 1980's up to the "Priceline" pitchman and space traveler of today, Shatner won Emmys and his first Golden Globe for his portrayal of eccentric lawyer "Denny Crane" on both "The Practice" and "Boston Legal." He has received four more Emmy nominations as well as other Golden Globe and SAG Award nods.

A true Renaissance man, Dolph Lundgren first caught the attention of U.S audiences with his portrayal of Russian boxer "Ivan Drago" in Rocky IV in 1985. He went on to star in more than 30 movies, including Masters of the Universe, Universal Soldier, Johnny Mnemonic, The Defender, The Expendables and Missionary Man. He later reprised the Drago role in Creed II.

Daniels, best known to fans as "C-3PO" across the Star Wars franchise, has more than 100 acting, producing and writing credits.
