Daniel Craig the Vampire Slayer

.
Well this is just odd. Seems that the next step for Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer empire in its all-forms-of-media saturation is the world of motion comics. SciFiWire has the scoop - the web series will apparently take place after the on-going series of comic books - as well as some of the casting run-downs for the voice actors they're currently looking for to voice some familiar characters - Faith, Kennedy, Principal Wood - as well as some new ones, like a Fairie, a Slug Queen... and actor Daniel Craig?

"Guest-Star / Male / Caucasian / 30 - 40 years
Description: MAXX INITIATIVE is now casting voice over talent for the Buffy the Vampire Motion Comic, upcoming web series. Seeking the role of actor DANIEL CRAIG - Male, caucasian, mid 30s. Voice to match actor Daniel Craig."

Yup. Daniel Craig. Okay. This is some weird fan-fic'y kinda thing. I see Faith tackling him in his blue trunks! Or maybe Principal Wood tackling him in his blue trunks. Yeah, that one.

I've read one of the earlier Buffy season 8 comics (not one of the ones this motion comic thing will be based on) and Daniel Craig appeared there in a weird dreamscape fantasy of Buffy. I'm guessing they'll do something similar here?

Right you are; I forgot that, Melinda. I've been reading the S8 comics too and loving them. I wish they came out quicker is all, it's hard to remember what happened a month ago when the new issue comes out.
