I'm not sure I would discount Penn as being able to play that role. He
has developed an ability to portray different characters. I admire
that in an actor. Johnny Dep does that as well. They become someone
completely different. Many of the hollywood actors are simply
themselves in what ever they do. I used lump Jack Nicholson in the
later group until he did About Schmidt. Same with Nicholas Cage until
he did Adaptation. It was impressive what a loser Cage was able to
portray in that movie.

"The best way that, for my own opinion, I think, you know, given what are
the facts of -- the only way that I'll answer it is to say that, you know,
again, I do not stand here as a pacifist. I would aspire to be a pacifist.
I'm not. I doubt I ever will be." (Sean Penn/Jeff Spicoli on Larry King
