Ive always fantasized about being on TV. And I was. Then I fantasized about being in the movies. What could be better than captain of a space ship? I get to ride horses, shoot guns, have adventures. – Nathan Fillion
I got amazing training both with Theatre Sports… back in Edmonton, Alberta – I cant give those people enough credit – and the daytime drama I did. Incredible training, both of them. – Nathan Fillion
I was attending the University of Alberta. I was going to be a high school teacher, like my parents. I failed – no, I didnt fail a class, I just barely passed. I really didnt try. It was Canadian history, through the plays of the time. My God, those were boring plays. – Nathan Fillion
Ill tell you what I really enjoy. We all go to the movies, we all watch television, we know what theyre about, how they work. When the main character is a cop or a spy, its very exciting, but I also very much enjoy when the main characters are nobodies – a trucker. – Nathan Fillion
Im not sure anybodys ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much, Ive seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I dont think Ive had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities. – Seann William Scott
