Why isn't Nathan more popular?

He will. All in good time...
Many of those who have been mentioned loafed about for years in the lower echelons before they became popular.
Although is that really what you want to see? Personally I'd prefer Nathan to be a more low key actor. Well known but certainly not in your face, as the Cruises, Clooneys or Pitts of the world.

The man is certainly talented enough and good looking enough to make it big. We all know just from watching the BDM that Tom Cruise can't hold a candle to Nathan. Not only can he make us laugh and in the case of us women- want him, but he can truly move us to tears. Hollywood will understand the depth of his talent one of these days.
I think his big break is right around the corner.. perhaps the BDSequel?
And I don't think it'll hurt for his star to rise... he'll be able to choose what he does. And I don't think the man can leave Serenity anymore than we can. 
Plus, he's so good looking, how much longer can those folks in Hollywood keep him out of sight?!

Its jealousy. Thats what it is, they are jealous of the deliciousness that is he.

I dont think Nathan will ever forgett the Browncoats, hes a big fan of the show himself and seems to love playing Mal, and if they gave him boring blockbuster movies so star in I think he would simply say no. The man seems to try to work in projects he likes.
You can’t stop the Signal.
Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

Yeah, I agree - he's one of us at heart and I don't think he'd ever get to turning his back on the browncoats or the 'verse.

It's because he's Canadian. 
No, I'm just kidding. It's just because he hasn't had that big blockbuster movie yet. Once he's in a movie that hits it big, then the bigwigs will notice him and go, "hey, check this guy out, let's hire him". Also it's because he's Canadian.

I just saw Saving Private Ryan Saturday evening for the first time in several years and I was blown away by the brief appearance Nathan had as the "wrong Ryan". I've never seen a male actor breakdown and cry so well. It's usually so fakey, but not our boy Nathan. By the end of that minute I was practically crying too.
Just adds to his appeal-it seems he can do anything acting wise and the face and body help too! LOL
One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

Oh, NCBrowncoat, his performance in that is startling. It actually does exactly what it is supposed to do, you are just heartbroken for this young man. Not a fake moment there.. you really BELIEVE that he is Minnesota Ryan.
He does a fantastic job! And how come S. Spielberg isn't making a movie with Nathan?
You know, I don't know if you have a special fondness for Nathan or not, NCBrowncoat, but if you're interested in joining the Appreciatin' Nathan crew over on the Browncoat Board, PM me or drop me a line at followmal@gmail.com. We have quite a crew of Nathan lovers or Mal-oholics over there. We're always happy to have new members and we have a lot of fun.

Remember, Clooney had years of working in the wilderness in all manner of crappy roles before he ended up in ER (second time anyway). Nathan is definitely growing a base, plus now he has two good leading roles in motion pictures under his belt, it'll be interesting to see where he goes from here.
