Nathan Fillion’s long-haired snap from the 90s will make your head spin

Long before he starred in The Rookie, Nathan Fillion landed his breakout role as Joey Buchanan on the daytime soap opera, A life to live. But during his time on the popular ABC show – which he starred in in 1994 – the actor sported a completely different look, and we couldn’t get over his hair!

Clearly a fan of the ’90s curtain trend favored by Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, Nathan is almost unrecognizable in this incredible photo. Because of his long hair, we had to take a photo twice, and we were also surprised to see him wearing a pair of glasses – which he seems to rarely wear.

The revealed photo was actually taken as a promotional photo for his time A life to live. A turning point in his career, Nathan’s role on the show earned him a Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Young Actor in a Drama Series. The 52-year-old also has plenty of happy memories of his time working on the soap.

“I don’t know where an actor can go to work and be with people who have been doing this for 25, 35, 40 years,” Nathan continued. “And I just say ‘I don’t know what I’m doing’ and they say ‘No problem, this is what you do’. They’ll take care of you, they’re very nice people.”

In the interview with TV insiderNathan is also noted A life to live star Erika Slezak – known as Victoria ‘Viki’ Lord – and his parents convinced him that continuing his acting career in New York was a good thing.

“They were scared because I… [but she] I sat down and talked to them,” he said. “When they left the set, my parents were very calm and relaxed. They say, ‘Okay, these are good people and they really care about you. This will be a great job for you.’ I was in an extremely safe place where I could learn at an extremely high speed. I collided with the best.”

When asked which ex-colleague he would like to work with again, Nathan replied “Everyone!” before adding: “I want Bob Woods [ex-Bo Buchanan] join The Rookie.”
