Bionic Interview: Kevin Rankin on Bionic Angels Radio Show
Damn, those Angels! The three ladies snagged an exclusive interview with actor Kevin Rankin, a.k.a. Nathan, from Bionic Woman. Nathan is one of our favorites around these parts, as evidenced by our series of Nathan and Jaime clips from previous episodes.
Viewers may also recognize Rankin from one of NBC’s other shows, Friday Night Lights, where he plays Herc. Filmed in Austin, TX, Friday Night Lights is quite a ways from Vancouver - home to the set of BW. Rankin’s schedule keeps him busy shuttling back and forth from Texas to Canada.
Technical difficulties prevent us from hearing the entire interview, but you can listen to most of it here.
Some highlights:
Romance between Nathan and Jaime?
- Not going to happen anytime soon, but who knows.
Travel between Austin and Vancouver?
- Hectic but he loves the two cities.
Inspiration from the original series?
- He was more of a Six Million Dollar Man fan but he loves the bionics.
How was he cast as Nathan?
- The latest show runner for BW, Jason Cahill, is a producer for Friday Night Lights and he asked Rankin to join the cast.
I for one hope Rankin gets a bigger role on BW because the scenes between him and Michelle Ryan are great.

Rankin also pulls double duty and plays Herc on NBC’s high school drama Friday Night Lights. Needless to say, Rankin is a busy man, shuttling between Vancouver, where BW is shot, and Austin, TX, where FNL is shot. [...]
