Interview de Nathan Fillion :

Citation:

I just got a chance to chat with Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic, stars of the hit show Castle. And I have to say, if you’re not watching it, you should be. Great chemistry, laugh-out-loud dialogue, and an awfully pretty cast. You’ve seen Katic on 24, Heroes and in the recent James Bond film Quantum of Solace. Fillion lead the cast in the beloved, and canceled far, far to early Firefly and the wildly popular web series, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-along Blog. The pair gave us the scoop on what’s going to happen in season 2, the Firefly Easter Egg that Fillion hid on set, and whether or not Katic would be willing to appear in the Dr. Horrible sequel. So you guys are back on speaking terms. How is the relationship between Castle and Beckett going to deepen this season ? Nathan Fillion : Well, there’s going to be a little rebuild. We kind of have to establish some trust back, you know what I mean ? Get a little closer...what do you think about how our relationship is going to deepen ? Stana Katic : I think we’ve had a bit more flirt this year than last year. And I think the writers have been playing around with that a bit. And we’re taking time to get to know the other characters as well. We’re going to go there, but we’re going to go there slowly and just enjoy every moment. Fillion : Yeah, Castle’s flirting a lot with Esposito (Jon Huertas) and Ryan (Seamus Dever) too. What do you think it is about the show that’s made it so popular ? Fillion : Well, I can tell you why I like it. It’s light. I want to watch TV and be entertained. I think there are a lot of mysteries and procedural-type shows on the air that are brooding and dark. It’s got a much lighter sort of attitude, our show. And I always miss on those shows when they don’t go for the joke. Oh, the guy’s head is cut off. ’Oh his head’s not really in it.’ There’s a joke right there. You just didn’t go for it. I mentioned this interview on Twitter last night and the response was incredible. One of the questions I’ve been asked to ask you is how much improvising there is on the show. Katic : There’s plenty of improvising going on. I mean, even the physicality is, most of the time, thought up by the actors, and a lot of that adds up to a comedic bit. And, you know, the guys always work out a comedic ending...a beat...what do you call that at the end of a scene ? Fillion : A tag. Katic : A tag at the end of a scene, just to give the editors an option to end it differently or on a lighter note. Fillion : Yeah, if there’s something going on in the middle of a scene that we want to do, a joke, we work it to see if it will work out. And once the scene is done, it’s a free for all. They can cut it at any point. So that’s when we start horsing around. Katic : Yeah, the cameras keep going for a bit to see if they can catch something. I recently spoke with Phil Lamarr, who is guest starring on your Halloween episode. He told me to ask you guys about costumes. Fillion : We did some Halloween costumes this year. We’re going to dress up. An astute observer, an astute spectator will notice there’s some winks and nods and nudges to other television programs that perhaps some of the other actors have participated in. Ooh, is that possibly the Firefly Easter Egg you mentioned on Twitter ? Fillion : [laughs] I mentioned that. But no, that’s not the one. But for people looking for the Firefly Easter Egg, don’t look for it before the Halloween episode, because it enters the realm, the Firefly episode. I’ve put down something on the set. Katic : You did ? Fillion : Yeah, an astute observer will see something on the set. Katic : OK, an Easter Egg. Fillion : An Easter Egg, I call it. Oh, so you don’t know about it Stana ? Katic : No. Fillion : Stana didn’t know about it. She doesn’t follow me on Twitter. Katic : [laughs] Fillion : Don’t let anybody know. It’s the Huffington Post. [laughs] I noticed the "bam said the lady" in the last episode. [Note : "Bam said the lady" and "Feed the birds" are slang terms created by Fillion. Click on the links to get the definitions.] Fillion : Yeah, we do a lot of "bam said the lady" and... Katic : "feed the birds". Fillion : Yes, "feed the birds". [laughs] Are you going to be creating any more slang this season ? Fillion : New slang. [to Katic] What are you going to... Katic : Well, we’ve got my... Fillion : Yes, well, is that yours ? Did you invent that ? Katic : A girl on the set. Fillion : OK. Stana’s got some stuff coming up that, I think we should maybe repeat that stuff... Katic : Right now ? Fillion : No, not right now, but in the show I think we should circle and do it again. Katic : Yeah, yeah, got that. Fillion : Some swearing alternatives, you know. Rather than swear, we’ll say this. Oh, I love TV swearing alternatives. Fillion : Oh yeah ! So are we going to find out any more about Beckett’s mother this year ? Katic : Yeah, you know, we deal with it somewhat at the beginning of the season in episode one. And we touch on it in this episode, very briefly. [to Fillion] We have that talk with the board. And that’s something for the future that’s probably like a series end or a mini-arc at the very end of our season two. So it’s definitely a slot in the writers’ minds, and something that we’ll have to address for sure. And, again, it’s another element of the Beckett/Castle relationship that will come to light as we move forward in the episodes. I happened to be walking through the Grove in Los Angeles the other day, and I noticed that Richard Castle is going to be doing a book signing ? Fillion : You can’t stop him. A little bit goofy and a little bit amazing. Are you going to be doing this in character ? Fillion : Ah, no. I just show up and sign a bunch of books. I’ve done it once already in Northridge and it was really nice. We had a great turnout. A lot of excited people having a good time. Katic : You could sign it ’Nathan Castle’. It would be confusing. Fillion : I have to sign it ’Nathan Fillion’. I’ve been practicing my autograph since I was in high school. So it would take about three times longer to sign ’Richard Castle’ than it does...I don’t even have to look when I sign my name. I spend that time with eye contact and getting to know somebody, you know what I mean ? So Castle’s book Heat Wave is out. What kind of trouble is that going to cause ? Fillion : [to Katic] I’m looking at you. Katic : [laughs] I think it’s going to be a series that they’ll always address throughout the episodes, but I think dealt with all of the problems that it would cause. But there’s the opening coming in episode four or five, right ? Fillion : Uh huh. Katic : Which will be a bit of fun. We get to play around with that. But that’s it. I think we dealt with the big elements which are the publicity and the launch of the book and all of that. But we’re pretty much in good stead with that. She knows that she’s his muse and she’s dealing with it. Fillion : I think the fans are going to see a lot of similarities between Heat Wave the novel and Castle programs that they’ve been watching. Castle borrows a lot of stuff from his real life to put into that book. But also with a little twist on it that you would expect from Castle, thinking how would he like it to turn out. If I don’t ask you about the Dr. Horrible sequel, I’m quite certain someone will murder me. And I’m a huge Dr. Horrible fan. I’ve talked to a few of your cast mates about it. Do you know the form yet ? Will it be happening as a film ? Fillion : We know that there is a sequel that’s going to happen, but we’re not sure about the medium it’s going to happen in yet. Did you talk to Felicia Day ? Did she ask about me ? What did she say ? [laughs] I haven’t talked to her yet, but I’m hoping to soon for The Guild. I’ve talked to Moist (Simon Helberg). Fillion : I like him. Stana, any chance you’ll join them and sing ? Fillion : [to Katic] We’ll have to get you in a superhero outfit. Katic : Oh god, I can’t wait. Would you sing ? Katic : I’d love to ! I thought it was a great, great piece. Fillion : She sings like a bird. So what can you tell us about the next episode ? Katic : We are trying to find out who murdered a model during New York’s fashion week. It’s a super sexy episode. We have to go through all of the ins and outs of the New York fashion scene. Castle is obviously enjoying himself thoroughly. Fillion : You want to see a really happy crew on a TV show ? Bring in thirty gorgeous extras. Castle airs Monday nights at 10 pm on ABC.

Une interview de Nathan Fillion au sujet de ses actuels projets : Ifc.com Interview

Even if Nathan Fillion weren’t currently playing the eponymous mystery writer on the hit TV series "Castle," the genre fans out there would surely know the charming Canadian actor from his work with cult-beloved producer Joss Whedon. Fillion had a pivotal role as a serial-killing priest in the final episodes of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," captained both the ship and ensemble cast of space western "Firefly" (and its spin-off feature "Serenity"), and goofily played Neil Patrick Harris’ superhero nemesis in Whedon’s web musical "Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog." Fillion currently co-stars in writer-director James Mottern’s terrific desert drama "Trucker," starring Michelle Monaghan in a career-launching performance as Diane Ford, a free-spirited (okay, promiscuous) big-rig driver who’s forced to watch over the 11-year-old son she all but abandoned to her ex. Fillion plays Diane’s drinking buddy Runner, one of the locals whose casual relationship with her proves complicated by the fact that he’s married. In support of the film, Fillion called me to talk about trucks, villains, Joss Whedon’s super-fans and the superhero franchise he’d like to reboot. What’s the largest vehicle you’ve ever been behind the wheel of ? I had a Ford F-250. It was a big ol’ farm truck, but it wasn’t a rig. That’s about the biggest I’ve ever driven. That’s what I drove back and forth to high school. I was a poor guy, and it was a truck that my uncle owned and let me drive because I had no money. It was little compared to the thing Michelle [Monaghan] was driving around. If you go to a sci-fi convention and there’re 3,000 of them in a room, one of them is going to get a little riled up and ask you to take off your pants. Runner’s relationship with Diane is unconventional, to say the least. Some people believe that men and women can’t be just friends when there’s any chemistry between them. Would you agree ? No, I don’t agree. I think when there’s chemistry, you know if there’s going to be some sort of compromising. You can know that. I like to think I’m able to draw the line. When it comes to married women, or if you’re in a relationship yourself, I try to keep myself out of situations that would force me to make decisions that could [lead] to trouble. Michelle Monaghan’s been getting a lot of buzz for the role since the film premiered at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Could you share any outside observations about her in this performance ? I’ll tell you what I really enjoy. We all go to the movies, we all watch television, we know what they’re about, how they work. When the main character is a cop or a spy, it’s very exciting, but I also very much enjoy when the main characters are nobodies — a trucker. Michelle’s as serious as a heart attack about her work. She’s just very, very natural. You don’t need to have a huge role to attack. She attacks what is seemingly a small character. Your career has been a bit entrenched in the Cult of Joss Whedon. Have you had any bizarre encounters with Whedon’s super-fans ? Yeah, one or two. [laughs] One thing I can say about Joss’ fans is that they’re dedicated, passionate, intelligent and very excitable. If you go to a sci-fi convention and there’re 3,000 of them in a room, one of them is going to get a little riled up and ask you to take off your pants. I’m a pretty reasonable man. I don’t let things get too far out of hand. I try not to mix fans and booze. I keep a lid on things. Speaking of Whedon, the only villain I’ve known you to play was Caleb on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Do you feel you’re ever typecast as the nice guy ? Not in the least. If anything, I’m typecast as a guy who’s maybe not so nice. He’s the hero who’s the anti-hero, or you think he’s a nice guy but he’s an adulterer. I’ve played so many roles, like a man who is married who cheats on his wife. Maybe it’s your even-keel disposition that gave me this perception. I agree. That’s part of the trick. People don’t walk around acting like they’re the villain. The villain walks around acting like he’s the good guy. The villain always thinks the show is about him, he’s going to win. The villain doesn’t think he’s a villain. I know you’re too busy with your own TV show to work on Whedon’s series "Dollhouse," but if you had time, what kind of character do you think you’d play ? Well, I wouldn’t be a doll, because they’re all in really great shape. I would be some incredibly rich businessman who hires a bunch of dolls to be some kind of private army. Yeah, that would be me. "Castle" is now in its second season. What do you like about working in television compared to film ? The most a movie’s ever taken me is three months to film, so that’s a compressed environment. With television, you have a run. You know you’re going to be there for a certain period of time. There’s a period of finding your feet, getting entrenched, and then learning and discovering more about your character. I’ve sat through my share of obligatory Will Ferrell movie gag reels, but your montage of "I’m Bill Pardy" outtakes on the "Slither" DVD trumps them all. Did you miss your calling as a comedian ? I’ll tell you this much, Aaron. I’m an actor, and I’m employed. That’s kind of like winning the lottery. I’m doing what I love to do every day. I have perhaps the best job in the world, and it’s an easy job. There’s no heavy lifting, it’s not rocket science. So when I’m at work, I’m having a blast, a really good time. You go to work with a bunch of guys who enjoy their jobs. I like to keep it light, easy and relaxed. I think that’s what you’re seeing in those bloopers and running gags — stuff that entertains us as a crew. Since both your parents were English teachers, was there any doubt that you’d be working in some field involving the interpretation of language ? [laughs] I have a tremendous respect for teachers. I was going to be a high school teacher myself, and I managed to get a job as an actor. I can’t believe that happened. I knew that acting was not a success-oriented career. I wanted to be smart about it. I didn’t want to spend my time pursuing something [where it] would be difficult to get a job, and the job wouldn’t pay much. I’ve always respected people who held a degree, so I figured if I had my degree, I could chase down whatever I wanted, and still have something to fall back on. You’ve been contributing voiceover work to the "Halo" video game series. Are you a gamer ? Yeah, we play "Halo” all the time. I’m pretty good at it. I can’t say I’m into video games, but I can say I’m into video game. I got into "Halo," started playing "Halo 2," and then "Halo 3" came around, and [franchise developer] Bungie asked if I’d like to be involved because I was a fan and effusive about it. In "Halo 3 : ODST," you can actually play a character that looks like me, my face. 10132009_FillionHalo3.jpg Do you have any artistic dream projects ? You know what ? I’ve tried my hand at writing, and it’s really stressful. And just watching directors, I feel like I should leave that to people who are cleverer than I am. I’m happy doing what it is I’m doing. If I had a dream project right now, I’d like to grab a hold of a superhero. There are so many superheroes out there, I feel like there’s none left. But there is one I think I could handle, and that’s a redo of "The Greatest American Hero." What would be your modern take on the show ? With the technology we have available today for effects, I’d say it’s largely the same idea, the same story, but the suit would be able to change and morph into whatever it is you needed him to do. So it could become armor, a scuba suit — you could do that stuff. Have you ever met "Greatest American Hero" star William Katt at one of these sci-fi conventions to pitch this idea ? I actually met both William Katt and Robert Culp on the set of "Castle." They’re friends of one of our executive producers’ fathers. We have the same stunt coordinator from "The Greatest American Hero," so every time you saw William Katt take the fall from his flying stuff, it was our good guy Dennis [Madalone]. So I’ve got my all my fingers in the right pots. “Trucker” is now open in limited release and will expand on October 16th.
