Exactly, plus had Nathan been cast as Angel...It's highly likely he would NOT have gotten to be Mal. In my honest opinion, Mal is Joss's best character ever. I'd rather see Nathan play Mal than Angel. Besides, Boreanaz did a fine job as Angel.
Two great characters, two great guys. Huzzah!(sp? lol)

Nate Fillion is not a fit for a flatter character like angel, he does not look or sound right. He does great as Mal though, he balances serious/sarcastic and warm/funny really well.

@Anjalena I didn't see Nathan as Caleb until after I saw him as Mal which makes it hard to look at and get your brain in the right thought pattern, but you're right Nathan played evil well. Many times we can't picture a change or a first casting but it's only b/c of what we're used to after many years. I'd like to see audition tapes of different actors, especially when they try for 1 character then get cast as a different one. Firefly will always rate as #1 in my tv book!

@niroj28 IT IS EPIC! If FOX wanted to rob us of more years of a great show, so be it but they can't take away the fact that Firefly is an EPIC work of art!
Can someone tell me, not from rumors, please why another channel didn't buy the rights? I hear "stuff" but nothing that makes sense. Thanks!

Alan could've played Angel. 1st a sweet, innocent looking blond being a vamp, HOT body if you missed Death at a Funeral and then his portrayal of Alpha on Dollhouse! His range, dialect capabilities, etc never lets me down. In certain scenes in Serenity u can tell Nathan has great depth, not anger but inner pain that is not called upon often but can glimpsed at the right time. Firefly had so many character archs to explore & each actor capable!! Inara's death, Book's secrets....We were robbed!

@littleewok51 Wouldn't David have already been working on Bones when Firefly was in production? Wait, I'll actually not be lazy and look..nope, way off on that. Bones was 2006 and Firefly was 2002. Being a late comer to Firefly, not a fan til release of Serenity- now keep copy of each in firebox...I do forget that Firefly is almost 10 years old! Glad they changed actress playing Inara. Not enough sex appeal for 1st choice.

@silfuryn yeah fux did things like that. Look how the treated the show that kept them afloat and helped them rise through the early years "Married with Children" They didn't even get a final episode. Heck Ed O'neil didn't find out about the cancelation till two fans came up to him to console him for it being canceled.

Fox is retarded for letting Firefly go like that... they threw away a series with the most potential I've ever seen!!!

Don't pay any attention to them. Mal is the lead chracter of the tv show Firefly and the movie Serenity made after it. Mal was played by Nathan Fillion. Both were works of Joss Whedon.
If you haven't already, you so need to watch Firefly and Serenity.

Who is the girl doing the interview? It sounds like Anna Paquin, but I know it can't be her. Help me out!

Yea, I heard something about Joss considering David for the role of Mal. I don't know if he tried for it though.
