As you guys may know, I was already excited to see Darren Lynn Bousman’s Repo! The Genetic Opera, (which starts filming today in Toronto) but after what I read yesterday, I am damn right ectastic about this film. Buffy fans rejoice! Anthony Steward Head has been cast as the lead villain in REPO!
Shocktilyoudrop gives us this:
Anthony Stewart Head, known to “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” purists as the Watcher named Giles, confirmed via his official site he’s locked for the rock horror musical’s leading role. He’ll play Nathan – father by day, Repo Man by night. This means Head is going to be working closely with Alexa Vega who’s co-starring as Shilo, Nathan’s daughter.
This to me is a perfect casting choice. I was convinced the ‘Repo Man’ was going to be Tobin Bell. (Saw series “Jigsaw”) Anyone who is a fan of Buffy knows that Anthony Steward Head has a remarkable voice, and to see him play the bad guy for once is going to be a treat.
