Tudyk is best known for his role as Hoban "Wash" Washburne in the cult science fiction/western television series Firefly and as "Steve the Pirate" in the 2004 comedy Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story; he reprised the role of Wash in the feature film Serenity. Tudyk also played a gay German drug addict in the film 28 Days, the emotional robot Sonny in I, Robot and, in a recent episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, a convicted pedophile.

According to Tudyk's IMDb biography, upon hearing that Firefly was cancelled, Tudyk threw a "We Don't Work for FOX Anymore" party for the cast and crew of the show. This was confirmed in the audio commentary of the Firefly series DVD.

In 1999, Tudyk made his Broadway debut in Epic Proportions. He was also in Wonder of the World, The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told, Misalliance, Oedipus and Bunny Bunny.[1] Tudyk was in Spamalot in 2005, from June to December 2005, filling in for Hank Azaria. He is currently starring in a limited run of Prelude to a Kiss on Broadway.
