He and Chris Pratt have first right of refusal on every VO role in Hollywood, it seems

James uses his friends. Fillion is in this specifically because he wanted him to have this terrible haircut.

I was specifically mentioning Angel because it is a Joss Whedon Show, but yes, he was Kirk Gleason on Gilmore Girls for years. It’s probably his best known role, besides Kraglin from Guardians of the Galaxy.

He really does keep hiring the same actors! Nathan Fillion has appeared in every movie James Gunn directed since Slither in 2006, although his part in Guardians 2 didn't make the final cut.

As is Pratt. I know Reddit still seems to hate the guy, but he did a good job with Mario.
