Michael Weatherly: I love taking naps in between scenes. My character wears glasses (Logan Cale in Dark Angel), so when I wake up from the nap my glasses are a little bent and crooked and I have to straighten them out. There are a couple of scenes where my glasses appear crooked. It’s all because of my love of naps.
Michael:(About his car) I drive Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
Michael Weatherly: There’s not a lot on TV that’s like Dark Angel. To its credit, it’s not a show that’s trying to be like everything else. It’s not a copycat.
Michael Weatherly: When you read a script you always have that perspective. If it’s a television show, you kind of imagine it on a television, with television angels and everything. When you read a movie script, you really flesh it out with movie stars and the whole thing.
Michael Weatherly: I always had three pair of pants, four shirts, a sweater and jacket. Now I have, like, three rooms of clothes. Of course, I have terrible taste.

Michael Weatherly: When I first read the script, someone had left it in my apartment. They had been housesitting while I was away working out of the country, and when I came back this had been sitting on my desk. And it had said, ‘Dark Angel, James Cameron, Charles Eglee’. And I had thought, ‘Oh, Jim Cameron’s new movie - this is kind of cool.’ So I picked it up and read it, envisioning Ed Harris as Logan. Then, a couple of weeks later, I got a call from my manger, and she said, ‘Do you want to audition for this Dark Angel thing? We’ve got a meeting for you.’ And I said, “‘Great, which part?’ I mean, I figured I’d be bodyguard number three or maybe I’d get to be one of the jam pony messengers in the back. And she said, ‘No, no. Logan.’
