Oh! Two more words: Dennis Quaid (or however you spell his name) That would be spiffy.

No superstars, please! Good character actors, on the other hand, sure, but Firefly just wouldn't be Firefly with a recognizeable big star on board.

There is only ONE Hollywood and International Superstar I want to see acting in the feature film epic sci-fi story Serenity:
Joss Whedon.
(qs)
although props to the person who said "Sandra Oh," cuz that's arthouse enough to not distract from The Cast, while still bein' suh-weet.

Depending on what Mal's family backstory is, I'd love to see Harrison Form portray Mal's father!

Cameron Diaz: as (one of) Simon's ex-girlfriends he runs into, and she's a nightmare! LOL! I can see Simon run!
James Earl Jones: Zoe's father.
Tom Hanks: Wash's brother... the crew finds that all Washburn's have the same sense of humor.
Sure, Harrison Ford can be Mal's father , I'm with everyone on that.
Vin Diesel: as one of Niska's henchmen... or a Reaver.
Kevin Spacey: Reaver.
David Bowie: Space Monkey

See I'm torn here. While big names would draw more people, I feel as though Julia Roberts and Morgan Freeman are just a bit too recognizable as *themselves* that some people may have trouble forgetting who they are and believing in the character...
that's just my 2 cents though, I could be wrong

I'd love to see Joss as one of Badgers thugs.
While watching The Train Job with commentary, it occured to me that since Joss found a decent guy to play Badger (A role he originally kind of wanted himself), why couldn't they have stuck him in there as one of the thugs... the guy behind the typewriter for example ?
Just a thought,

You know, I can't think of anybody that I'd like to *see* in a Joss production. I'm sure he and his crew will choose better performers than I could.
On the other hand, I'd love to *hear* Alison Krauss & Union Station, or maybe Mark Knopfler. Knopfler has prior film scoring experience (Princess Bride) and his work over the last few years has carried just the right mood, I think.

I would enjoy seeing minor characters from other Whedonverse shows come on board (briefly)
just as Jonathan Woodward was great in The Message
I would get a huge kick out of some other character actors
who only the fans will recognize:
Camden Toy could be a Reaver,
Adam Busch could play some sneak theaf,
Tom Lenk could play another genus from 'the academy'
only his brain sugery was completed...and successful....
LOL

Personally, I'd kind of like to see it the way it is now - relative unknowns getting their opportunity to shine and show the world just how damn good they can be.
Simon: You...you came for us.
Mal: You're on my crew.
Simon: Right. I guess I just didn't...you don't even like me.
Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?
