The Cast of 'Firefly' Will Reunite! (For a Video Game)
by Andy NeuenschwanderUsually when you read a story that says that the cast of "Firefly" is reuniting, it's an April Fools prank. But this time, it's real!
Here's the catch: The new project isn't a reboot of the TV series or another movie. Instead, it's an online multiplayer game. But you know what? We'll take it!
The announcement was made today at Comic-Con, with the introduction of Firefly Online. The MMO game will feature voice acting from the entire main cast of the original "Firefly" series and "Serenity" movie. In fact, Alan Tudyk (Wash) will be voicing multiple roles. That makes sense seeing as Tudyk is an accomplished voice actor who most recently voiced the Duke of Weselton in "Frozen."
The wesbite for the game is currently returning a 404 error, but a short trailer for the game is already out. The trailer includes some details about the game, including your ability to customize your character, build and modify your ship, and travel all across the 'verse starting trouble.
Oh, and there's a pretty great cameo in the trailer, too.
