I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!
I remember in the late 90s, early 00s' there were rumblings of him playing Anakin. I had always wondered if there was any truth to it. I also remember that crazy rumor of an NSYNC cameo happening in Episode 2. :mjlol:

But the actor has not ruled out playing a superhero in the future. "You never know, you never know," he added. "They’re getting better and better as far as complex characters in these movies. I haven't yet. But no, I don't rule out anything."

:jbhmm: Hmmm....

Did a quick imdb check, from the time he would have had to film ep 2/3 he made

Catch me if you can
Aviator
Gangs of ny
Departed
Blood diamond

He maybe would have made 2 of those 5.....but he also built his resume up in that time to be in the goat discussion today.

Thank you leo for not accepting the role.

puts it in a whole different perspective. George Lucas might be dead somewhere if it went down like that
