Diffently not tom cruise...heck no! i think tom cruise is a horrible actor. He is not sexy and i think there are very few teenage girls who think he is sexy and needless to say Dante is supposed to be sexy. tom cruise had the opertunity to play that type of role, (the guy that all the girls think is hot) in Interview with the Vampire and i must say that he bombed. Lestat is suposed to be hot. i think hadyen christansan would be better as Nero. he is good at being Emo. Daniel craig as Dante um no...I think i'd like to see Reuben play Dante.
