Once you realize that this actor has held supporting parts in both Marvel and DC projects, it becomes a wonder as to why he hasn’t yet landed an official live action superhero role.

Nathan Fillion has made it clear that he is no way a stranger to geek culture, as he frequents large events where the fandom speaks for itself. During a panel at Wizard World Comic Con Chicago, the actor revealed his interest in portraying Booster Gold, a less notable character in the DC Universe, yet strangely appropriate for him to portray.

“I think I could take a pretty good crack at Booster Gold. That’s kind of my niche… show-offy, vain. I think I could handle that… not too bright.”
