Considering some of the things that have been flying aorund in drafts of this cript, it's refreshing to see them cast somebody who's not know as an actor.
Sounds like they've ditched the idea of a talking SnakeEyes who runs around most of the time without a mask.

Talk about a guy who gets the best non-speaking roles! Let's not forget he was also the fighting version of the Headless Horseman in Sleepy Hollow.
