We had an entire episode w/ no Book. Cutting back screen time of either won't be that big a deal for Joss. Wash can easily be inserted to lighten up a sceen or perform a Crazy Ivan, but that still leaves 7 crew and a whole 'verse of characters out there to draw from.

I was looking at everyone's profiles on IMDB and Gina Torres was the only person with anything currently filming besides the BDM. Maybe it's Zoe we're going to see less of.

You see Alan Tudyk is the only person it could be.And it doesn't matter if he only has two films currently showing. He is the only one of the cast to be a co-star with Will Smith. In other words he is quite busy with roles.

You know considering the fact Joss made fun of him for being the cast member who could never rember his lines on the DVD. It's shocking that he could be the break away star but it's happened.

i don't understand, why is ron shepheards schedule conflicting, he's not exactly an actor in demand is he? Wasn't firefly finally his serious role. surely serenity would be a priority for him, the same kinda applies to alan but not as much i guess. Maybe somone has actually begun to realise how good these actors actually are and wants them.

Ron Sheppard? You mean, Ron Glass?

Ron has been around for decades. His major role was back in the 70s, on the series "Barney Miller".

Come on people. Tudyk is mostly an unknown, nobody, part from a handful of Fireflyfans are going to see "I,Robot" because he is in it. They couldn't care less. They go because they want action and Will Smith.

And to see how horribly they'll destroy Asimov's vision.

Where have you been? Alan Tudyk has been in numerous films, starting with a small role in "Patch Adams" w/Robyn Williams, then "Wonder Boys" w/Michael Douglas, "Hearts in Atlantis" w/Sir Anthony Hopkins, "28 Days" w/Sandra Bullock, "A Knight's Tale" w/Heath Ledger, even several voices in "Ice Age". Each movie has moved him farther up the ladder of success. His latest movie, that just opened Friday, is "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story" w/Ben Stiller; and, "I, Robot" is due to open 07/16/04. FYI - even though Alan's character, 'Sonny', is a CGI character, Alan made every move, did every scene that you see Sonny in. It's Alan's voice and his eyes that you hear and see. "Dodgeball" topped the charts this weekend and it's a funny, funny movie - if you haven't seen it yet. People seem to think "I, Robot" will be a hugh success, as well. I hope he has a lot of air-time in "Serenity". I think he adds a lot to any scene he's in.
