[His next project, Sunshine (2007)] We`re doing this film Sunshine (2007). In fact, we`re casting for it in a few minutes actually. It`s about a mission to the sun. It`s a sci-fi set in space. They`re flying a bomb to the sun and the bomb is like the size...
Danny Boyle
I`ve been lucky. And thank goodness the (sci-fi films) I`ve done have been good movies. I feel like some kind of lucky star has, for now, shone on me.
Jeff Goldblum
I grew up watching sci-fi and monster movies like I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957) and all those creepy old Vincent Price horror movies. They made a huge impression on me and I think that`s what Independence Day (1996) is going to do for a whole generation...
Jeff Goldblum
I did a grad film but that ended up hurting me more than it helped. My grad film was this over the top, gonzo, completely absurd sci-fi thing with non- professional actors. When you have actors in their fifties who are still doing student films, you`re no...
Richard Kelly
Lots of sci-fi movies are much ado about nothing. What I liked about [The Island (2005)] is that it`s a universal thing: we all want to live longer. But how selfish would you be to achieve that? You could get a liver, a heart, kidneys, essential things. B...
Michael Bay
(When asked about his relationship with Joss Whedon): I`ll tell you this. No one has ever shown the kind of faith in me that Joss Whedon has shown, in both giving me a lead on his sci-fi show Firefly and in letting me play a villain for the very first tim...
Nathan Fillion
I was gobsmacked by that. I was absolutely gobsmacked. All these things that are happening. I just sit back and . . . I can`t believe it but I love it. I`m totally enjoying it. Because I`m a fan, a sci-fi fan, they have made a young boy`s dreams come true...
John Barrowman
I was in London during my first sci-fi convention for Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997) and I was at the local bar, having a drink, writing in my journal, and this woman came up to me and said, "Do you want a drink?" I said, "No, thank you." She pushed it ...
Emma Caulfield
I`m a ridiculous sci-fi fan. In fact, I admit it freely; my manager is horrified. I just recently bought seasons two through five of Star Trek: The Next Generation" (1987) on DVD. And I`ve watched all the episodes, half on the plane and a few of them as I...

With BSG, sci-fi is the human experience taken beyond the envelope. When I first became involved with the project, I knew that I would be able to play a human being for many years, exploring and reflecting on issues that would impact people`s lives.
Mary McDonnell
There was concern whether SCI FI would want the show back with all the recent changes. But now, the changes have made it feel fresh, like starting over.
Michael Shanks
That`s the thing with sci-fi and action roles. You have to play the danger as real. If you don`t, you end up with egg on your face. You have to commit. You can`t think about how stupid it might look without the special effects.
Victoria Pratt
So much of literary sci-fi is about creating worlds that are rich and detailed and make sense at a social level. We`ll create a world for people and then later present a narrative in that world.
James Cameron
She`s parlayed that into a fan community that far exceeds what her actual work on the show would engender, if you thought about it. She`s also been able to get lead roles on Sci Fi Channel movies because of that, ... I see how hard she has to work to do i...
Chase Masterson
Sci-fi films are the epic films of the day because we can no longer put 10,000 extras in the scene - but we can draw thousands of aliens with computers.
William Shatner
It`s the ideal time slot for the audience we hope to reach. The future of sci-fi is in this demographic because they enjoy screaming and being scared. We also have strong storylines, which both genders appreciate.
Peter Johnson
It`s not action-sci-fi as it`s an internally relationship-driven show. The great thing about life post-Star Trek is we do have this incredible fan base where not only is the work more consistent but they loyally tune into everything we do. It has made a h...
Chase Masterson
It was unique, it was incredibly well-written, it clearly had the potential to reach not just sci-fi fans but fans of good television. Unfortunately, we didn`t live long enough to realize its full potential.
Gina Torres
I`m very proud of Space 1999. Its success paved the way for other sci-fi shows to follow. My hope is that the DVD release will help it reach a new generation of fans.
Martin Landau
I`m open to sci-fi, but I was never a diehard fan. I have no idea why it keeps following me. I`m extremely lucky, I guess; it`s a lucrative venue.
Yancy Butler
I wish everyone was a sci-fi geek because then there would be no violence in the world. There`d be no wars. There`d only be people e-mailing each other.
Claudia Christian
I learned that you can make a sci-fi film that is satisfying overseas. European people have everything in check. I`d make every sci-fi film in Europe. They only work 14 hours a day. After that, it`s overtime.

Michelle Rodriguez
I haven`t really had that many opportunities to play "lead" so I guess I jumped at the chance. I have also never done any "sci-fi" projects and thought it might be fun.
