Firefly actor Nathan Fillion has explained the decision to set the new animated series after the end of the live-action show but before the events of its follow-up movie, Serenity, and confirmed plans to bring back a fan-favorite character.

        It hit hard tbh. I think it was great, makes the movie memorable and all that. I find it tacky when the main cast has an invisible invincibility shield.

        Point of clarification … he killed the characters, not the cast, right? … right!?

          “Thank God you’re here, Officer. These cast members just came in and kept killing themselves on my property!”

        Movies With Mikey has an interesting anecdote from a pre-release screening he saw of Serenity. Wash’s death was so unexpected that a woman in the audience started screaming and had a panic attack until she could be removed from the theater.

        That part was pretty brutal, but it did make the stakes in the following hallway fight feel appropriately sky high.

          I’m imagining the stakes of her hallway fight in the theater.

      Remember the words of John A. Hollywood: “Everything can be retconned”
