Ugh. Too old and too bad an actor to play Spike. He may surprise me though, I for one thought that Heath Ledger would never be able to play character like the joker, so anythings possible I guess.

Weeell, Spike could've been like...Nicolas Cage. How strange would that be?

They're both awful actors with poor range.

Cage always has that "resigned surprise/deer in the headlights" expression with slight mumbling and when he tries to smile or have an outburst of anger it doesn't look authentic. He could pass for a creepy geek or a bipolar psycho, but definitely not the cool type.

Keanu has that "blank stare model" look, and the most expression he's capable of is the "surfer dude smiling cheek to cheek". Maybe he could pass for the cool/aloof type, but definitely not for deep, which would be required at some point.

They're both the skinny types, that's about it. Then again, I'm not sure if I'd like to see the live-action movie made, the animated movie was enough of a let down.
