Who is Nathan Fillion?

Born Nathan Christopher Fillion on the 27th March 1971, in Edmonton, Alberta Canada, he is an actor, voice actor, best known to the world from playing Richard Castle in the crime-drama series “Castle” (2009-2016), and previously as Captain Malcolm ‘Mal’ Reynolds in the short-lived TV series “Firefly” (2002-2003).

Early Life, Family, and Education

The younger son born to June and Robert Fillion, who both were English teachers, Nathan has an older brother, Jeff, with whom he spent his childhood in Mill Woods, a residential area in Edmonton. Nathan went to Holy Trinity Catholic High School, and later enrolled at Concordia University of Alberta and the University of Alberta, during which time he was a part of the Kappa Alpha Society.

Career Beginnings

Nathan moved to the USA, settling in New York City in 1994, but not before he worked in several theatre, film, and television projects in his native Canada. He was a part of the improvisational theater Theatresports with Rapid Fire Theatre, and also appeared in the improvisational soap opera entitled “Die-Nasty”.

Once he moved to New York, Nathan started auditioning for various parts, and got a pat on the back with the role of Joey Buchanan in the soap opera “One Life to Live” (1995-1997), when he left the show to pursue other projects, though he eventually returned for a brief guest appearance in 2007.

Throughout the ‘90s, Nathan made several notable appearances, such as in the part of Johnny Donnelly in the TV series “Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place” (1998-2001).

He started the new millennium with the role of Father David in the critically-acclaimed fantasy horror film “Dracula 2000”, starring Gerard Butler, Justine Waddell and Johnny Lee Miller.

Rise to Prominence

As the 2000s developed, Nathan became more popular as an actor, and as a result was cast in the lead role in the highly-acclaimed TV sci-fi action series “Firefly”, which although airing for only one season, won a number of prestigious awards, including a Primetime Emmy Award. Nathan then got the lead role in the action-adventure film “Serenity”, starring next to Gina Torres and Chiwetel Ejiofor, and continued in the same manner in the second half of the 2000s, starring in the sci-fi horror “Slither” in 2006, a film directed and written by James Gunn, and in 2007 starred with Keri Russell in the drama film “Waitress”.

“Castle”

In 2009 Nathan got his most prominent role so far, as Richard Castle in the crime-drama series “Castle”. In the series, Nathan is seen portraying the titular character, a best-selling mystery writer who joins the NYPD and becomes extremely close to Kate Beckett, an NYPD detective portrayed by Stana Katic. At first, Becket is quite irritated by the very thought of Castle working with her, but as the series develops, the two become rather close. The show aired for eight seasons on ABC, before being canceled in an abrupt ending. Nathan won a number of awards for his performance, including four People’s Choice Awards. The role of Richard Castle certainly launched him to real stardom, and increased his wealth to a large degree, as he was eventually receiving $100,000 per episode.

Continual Success

Concurrently with working on “Castle”, Nathan had many other projects, and also started a career as a voice actor. He featured in the epic-drama film “Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters” in 2013, then from 2015 until 2017 he portrayed Jack Moore in the TV series “Con Man”, while in recent years, Nathan played Gary West in the TV comedy-horror series “Santa Clarita Diet” (2017-2018), and Jacques Snicket in the new take on the famous children’s books “A Series of Unfortunate Events” (2018). He is currently working on several projects, including the film “Nomis”, and the new TV series “The Rookie”, in which he will portray John Nolan.

Voice Acting Career

Nathan is recognized for his deep manly voice, and has used it to gain recognition as a voice actor as well. Back in 2013, he gave voice to Johnny in the animated film “Monsters University”, and in 2015 started giving voice to Green Lantern in a number of animated films from DC Universe. He is also recognized as the voice of Monstrous Inmate in the highly-acclaimed film “Guardians of the Galaxy” (2014). Most recently, he was the voice of Sterling in the third installment of the popular animated film franchise “Cars” in 2017.

Quotes

#	Quote
1	[describing how he blew his chance at serving on a jury] We’re talking to this judge who belonged on TV. He was handsome, had good hair. He was telling us about the importance of jury duty. I was riveted. He was funny, and at one point they call you back into the room and they’re gonna decide whether or not they’re gonna use you. I walk in. They’re all charming, they’re all nice, and one of them says, ‘Hey, you’re an actor!’ I decided to have a little fun and I said, ‘Yes, I’m a very good actor, which brings me to the point: I don’t know which juror I’m playing. I still didn’t get my script.’ The judge didn’t get it. He looks at me and he says, ‘There’s no script’, I said, ‘Oh, improv. Good. Let me give you a little back story to my character. I’m the guy, when they sequester the jury in the hotel, I tie the bedsheets together, I come out the window and I pit the plaintiffs against the defence attorney’. I got excused.
2	[on the DVD commentary for Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog (2008), talking about his skill at portraying “Joey Buchanan” on One Life to Live (1968)] The only question you have to ask yourself is ‘How good a Joey Buchanan was I?’ A man’s ‘Buchananity’ is what separates him from reptiles and lawn furniture.
3	[on Firefly (2002)] – It was my favorite job ever. What wasn’t great about it? I got to wear a low-slung holster. I got to ride horses. I got to have a spaceship. I got to act mean and curmudgeonly. [Creator Joss Whedon] is really good at kicking characters in the nuts so the other characters would have laughs at my expense and that was great too. … If I got $300 million from the California Lottery, the first thing I would do is buy the rights to Firefly, make it on my own, and distribute it on the Internet. … We’re the most story-literate society the world has ever seen. What Joss tends to do is twist story conventions into reality. Whereas the story goes like this, real life goes like this, and that’s what Joss has mastered.
4	(When asked if he would go back and do a Firefly (2002) TV series again after Serenity (2005)): I hope so. Daddy’s got bills to pay!
5	(When asked what makes Caleb unique and threatening): His accent. Never trust a southerner. No, I’m kidding. They’re wonderful. You want to believe in his niceness and his charm, but he’s an evil kind of crazy man who’s righteous. Fear the righteous.
6	(When asked what he likes about playing a villain): Being able to be evil. You can’t do the evil things that you want to do in real life. You certainly can’t because it’s against the law and society says all that they have to say about being evil. You want to be bad everyday. You want to do the bad evil things that you can’t get away with and now I’m able to be bad and super strong. It’s a fantasy.
7	(About Serenity (2005)): There is nothing like a major motion picture to make you feel a little bit better about having your TV show canceled.
8	(When asked about his relationship with Joss Whedon): I’ll tell you this. No one has ever shown the kind of faith in me that Joss Whedon has shown, in both giving me a lead on his sci-fi show Firefly (2002) and in letting me play a villain for the very first time. No one’s ever let me play a villain before. So, I would say that I think he’s done great things for my career and certainly my confidence in general.
9	(On Firefly fans attempts to save the show) It’s very Jehovah’s Witness. I’m not sure if anyone’s actually going door to door, but it’s not far off.
10	(Talking about the cancellation of Firefly (2002)): I broke the cardinal rule of don’t fall in love with what you’re doing, because the rug can get yanked out from underneath you, and when it did, I was heartbroken.
11	My favorite villains are the ones you don’t see coming. What I enjoyed about playing Caleb was that he was so very, very clever, so very, very sweet, and so very, very twisted. I liked that he’s not a typical villain. He’s soft and sweet and righteous, and yet he’s perverted and twisted in his head.
12	I’ve 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 …
