Summer Glau on Dollhouse? It’s Possible Says Whedon

With her show Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles now canceled by the geniuses over at FOX, Summer Glau is looking for a job. Say, how about reuniting with her Firefly and “Serenity” bud Joss Whedon over at his new show Dollhouse? You know, the show that got renewed despite being of way lesser quality than Glau’s own Terminator show? Yeah, that one. Maybe Whedon can get her on the show as compensation?

Michael Ausiello over at EW thinks it’s a very real possibility:

The noise you’re about to hear is the sound of the Whedonverse exploding. Joss confirms to me exclusively that, well, he’s one step ahead of you. “If anybody thinks [bringing Summer onto Dollhouse] hasn’t occurred to me already then they have not met me,” he says. “I mentioned it to her before [SCC] was canceled. I was like, ‘You know, we should get you in the ‘house.’ But first we have to come up with something that works.” And casting her as a doll would not work, insists Whedon. “Summer would be perfect to play an active, but she’s done that [type of role] a lot,” he says. “I’d rather see her play someone who talks too much. The most fun I have is when I get somebody who’s good and comfortable at doing something, and then I make them do something else. Summer said to me, ‘I would like to play a normal girl before I die of extreme old age.’”

Yeah, but she’s just so gosh darn good as the stone cold fox killing machine!
