Marsters talks Spike telemovie
James:"I am willing to put Spike to rest, but I would love to play him again" |
 Dread Central snagged a ticket to the Rue Morgue Festival of Fear a couple of days back and bumped into a certain distinctive-cheekboned vampire.
James Marsters, currently shooting a batch of "Smallville" episodes, told attendees not to put too much stock into the rumours of a "Spike" telemovie - even though he is keen to play 'William the Bloody' again.
"I am willing to put Spike to rest, but I would love to play him again," Marsters said. "There are constant rumblings in the background that there would be a project that would have that happen. I have been approached on the periphery about it, kind've like, 'We're not really thinking of doing this, but if we did, would you be interested?'"
Marsters' interest has a stipulation though. "Joss [Whedon] came up to me when 'Angel' was still filming and asked me if I'd be interested in a TV movie and I said, 'Hell, yeah. But you have five years.' Because this character read as a twenty-seven year old [when I first took the role], I was thirty-five then but kinda looked twenty-seven. Now I'm fourty-three looking like a thirty-five year old, but my character is not supposed to age one day. I think I could maybe match that first shot, but I think I maybe have about two more years [left]."
A couple of weeks back AICN mentioned that Tim Minear had been asked to write and direct a new "Spike" telemovie. No official confirmation as yet.
