Romanek's Wolffather

According to Anthony Hopkins, he's in the frame for a role in Mark Romanek's Wolfman film. He'll be playing the father of Benicio del Toro's character, the titular wolfman, but seems to think the character has lycanthropic tendencies himself.

He said "There's also a chance I may play the Wolfman in London in a movie with Benicio Del Toro" and later added "I play the Wolfman's father in Paris. A wonderful part."

Seems like sensible casting to me. You?
