Casting call: Jake Gyllenhaal as Captain Planet?
If I had to cast the role today, Jake would be my first choice. The man was made for the part. Not only is he a young heart-throb and Hollywood hot commodity, but just by looking at him you know Jake is a man of action -- a perfect fit for Captain Planet! Plus, I bet he would look alright with his face painted blue.
But beyond the actor's obvious professional credentials, let's not forget that he's quite the eco-warrior in his personal life. Not only has Jake been seen biking around Los Angeles (in spandex!), he's also a dedicated Whole Foods shopper and doesn't hesitate to freeze his butt off for oddball eco-stunts along the arctic circle.
Most importantly, he loves puppies -- and Captain Planet is, without a doubt, also a friend to the animals.
So, yeah, Jake Gyllenhaal. Good actor. Great bone structure. Environmental activist.
He'd be perfect.
