Many fans were surprised to see a young, up-and-coming new actor cast as Caius, one of the three Volturi leaders, in New Moon. So I'm wondering if you'll find this new cast member more age-appropriate.

Michael Sheen, best known for his portrayals of famous historical figures in movies like The Queen and Frost/Nixon, will take on the role of "leader of the Volturi." I'm assuming this means he'll play Aro, which is exciting. Sheen's a well-respected actor's actor and adds a kind of thespian credibility to the production.

What do you think? Can you envision Sheen as an intimidating, powerful vampire? Does Sheen's involvement make you think this movie is starting to sound pretty good?
