awesome idea or disaster in the making? Can't do worse than Tom Cruise

http://perezhilton.com/2009-08-17-robert-downey-jr-to-vamp-up

Robert Downey Jr. is in heavy talks to play the vampire Lestat, a role made famous by Tom Cruise in Interview With The Vampire, in a prequel explaining Lestat's origins. The only problem we can foresee is that Rob might just be a little long in the tooth to play the role, as Lestat was changed at the mere age of twenty-something.

But we wouldn't mind the discrepancy for a chance to see this Rob fang out.

*and yes, I read Perez Hilton but only for the pictures*

1. Robert can act. At least it's not Keanu Reaves again.

2. Yes, they should cast Anthony Hopkins and Meryl Streep as the younger Lestat
