To say that the Indiegogo campaign for Con Man, a new web series from Firefly's Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk, was a success would be an understatement for the century. The crowd-funded series, inspired by their lives post-Firefly, not only hit its goal of $425,000, but blew past it — so far raising more than $1.25 million. That's nearly 300% more than what they were asking.
Oh, and there's still 30 days left.
Since getting funded, the two have continuously added stretch goals for the series. In total so far, we have 6 episodes, a card set of six, and tons of extra goodies. Here are the stretch goals that have been met so far.
As for future stretch goals, here's what's planned:
For those who missed the initial announcement, Con Man is a comedic web series that mocks the lives of Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion, two stars of the cult classic show Firefly.
In the series, Alan Tudyk (Hoban "Wash" Washburne, Firefly) will play Wray Nerely, a co-star on Spectrum, a sci-fi series that was canceled and later became a cult classic. Sound familiar? Nathan Fillion (Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds, Firefly) will play Jack Moore, captain of the ship in Spectrum. Unlike Wray, Moore went on to become a major movie star. The show will follow Wray as he tours as a guest at conventions. It will feature guests from across the sci-fi community and "celebrate the world where heroes, villains, zombie hunters, and space pirates all overlap."
It basically sounds like a nerd's dream and I'm not at all surprised it got funded so quickly. For more details about the show and its stretch goals, check out the Indiegogo page.
