Alan didn't opt out of a recurring role in a TV show, though.

Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I only had a brain...
But I already said that a recurring role in a movie based on SF tv is equivalent to a recurring role in the original TV show. None of the original Star Trek supporting actors is considered a movie star, even though they're in hit movies.

Okay, Carrie Ann Moss didn't opt out of a recurring role in a TV show. Since you were talking about her too, I thought we were talking about the literal interpretation ("Carrie Ann Moss might disagree with the literal interpretation."), not your clarified position.
I have no idea which point we're talking about now, to be honest, so I'll stop.

I'm pretty sure that movies-based-on-genre-TV (e.g. Star Trek) don't count for any more than the original TV.
I was talking about that.
edit: whoops, sorry, that was a clarification. My bad.

Alan was also in two big movies in 2004, Dodgeball and I, Robot. Combined with Spamalot, I'd say he's the most "going places" of the cast.

Just as, dammit, Seth Green made absolutely the right career decision about leaving Buffy.

Though Allyson Hannigan didn't, and I'd say she's got the most play of any of them other than SMG.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Supposedly, it's an original novel set in the Serenity universe, written by the gentleman who wrote the movie novelization, Keith R. A. Candido. However, he posted on the official movie board back in August that no such book existed nor was it planned to exist. Make of this what you will.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Also, this about Alan: ferocious acting chops. I'm just in awe of the guy. And can I just say again, somebody needs to create a vehicle co-starring Alan and Seth--movie, TV show, whatever. Their energies would so complement one another's. Would that be awesome, or am I just being tiresome?
