ETHAN HAWKE - HAWKE TO PLAY VAMPIRE

HAWKE TO PLAY VAMPIRE

ETHAN HAWKE is set to sink his teeth into a new vampire role opposite WILLEM DAFOE. The Before Sunset star is growing his hair in preparation for the neck-biting role in Daybreakers, which he'll shoot in Australia. He says, "I'm going to make a vampire picture and I'm going to chew on some necks. "Willem Dafoe and I are duelling vampires. It's a vampire movie set way in the future where everyone is a vampire and we're all eating our own resources, so we're trying to get off on foreign humans. "We're trying to get off of trying to create blood substitutes. It's a big analogy about what's going on now. It's really dark and weird and everybody's sucking each other's blood."
