with wash suffering from his untimely death at the end of serenity, the position of pilot is vacant onboard serenity. if joss does eventually make a new series of firefly or another serenity movie, which actor (or actress) should be the new pilot?
Try to think of suitable actors, maybe even character actors. dont be scared to come up with a radical choice.
my nomination is- RYAN REYNOLDS. he has perfect comic timing, but can also be seen as heroic if required. if you dont know him check out two guys and a girl or Blade Trinity.
of course, both mal and river fly serenity at the end of the film, so they are possible choices.
see who you can come up with

Well River is the most likely candidate. Since she clearly has an aptitude.

I agree River is a good choice it just depends on how stable she is now. I hope she doesn't wander off and kill the whole crew cause the wall is pretty. Anyway maybe Mal should keep flying with her for awhile just to be safe.

I'd pay good money to see what Jayne would be capable of, pilot-wise.

That'd be a hoot!

I'll be in my bunk...

I think River would probably be the pilot at least for a while but I think Joss may actually either have one of the current crew either learn to fly or more likely hire new crew.
I can't begin to guess who would make a good pilot. One actor that I think is usually overlooked is Ewan McGregor. I don't think he'd play a Wash-like character but something completely different. Just a thought I suppose. I would imagine though that the crew would need someone light hearted who could make the crew laugh even in worst circumstances to keep the morale up.

What about John Cho from "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle", to add that Asian element. The guy has shiny comedic timing. Maybe.

Well we know already that Inara can fly a shuttle and it just might be a good excuse for her to stay on the ship.

I agree that River is the best candidate, but it's the future, can't they just clone Wash? They would have to dig him up first, or maybe use a hair from his hairbrush to clone him.

Wouldn't it be something if the new pilot were Inara? However, I don't think she nor the captain could handle their feelings in this relationship without some major event happening between them, most likely one that tears them apart emotionally from each other. However, then the fun tension between the captain and Inara wouldn't be around...

Hell, Mark Hamil might make a good pilot, now that he looks the part ;)

Can`t clone from hair I`m afaid, no DNA.

I`ll bet it costs an arm and a leg to clone people in the `verse anyway.

Now just suppose Zoe is pregnant with Wash`s child. Not entirely implausable considering they were arguing about it during the episode `Heart of Gold`.
Presumably, any sequel will take place a year or two after the events in `Serenity`.
Having a young kid in tow might make for some interesting plot twists dont you think?
Might even be a justification for Wash to appear as a flashback.
