Hey,why the hell not? To me,this man can play an AIDS stricken armadillo, and it would be convincing.I think he is the most multi-talented,most underrated actor in the business.This man has been acting since he was 10,and he has managed to stay just below the Hollywood radar,amazing!!! He is gorgeous,sexy,ultra mysterious,and that's the way we Baleheads like it.I'm excited about this news!!!!!
