About Star Trek

Star Trek is an American science-fiction television series created by Gene Roddenberry that follows the adventures of the starship USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) and its crew.

About Captain Kirk (source Memory Alpha Wikia)

James Tiberius "Jim" Kirk was a male Human Starfleet officer who lived during the 23rd century. Kirk was arguably one of the most famous and highly decorated starship captains in the history of Starfleet. As the commanding officer of the Constitution-class starships USS Enterprise and USS Enterprise-A, Kirk served United Federation of Planets interests as an explorer, soldier, diplomat, and time traveler.

About Gorn (source Memory Alpha Wikia):

Gorn were a cold-blooded species, with green, rubbery skin, red blood, and an average height of approximately two meters. They tended to be many times stronger than most humanoids, albeit slower and less agile but with greater stamina and, like most cold-blooded species, preferred warmer temperatures.

In the episode of "Arena" Gorn is played by multiple individuals which include Bobby Clark and Gary Combs.
