Will George McFly and Robert Zemeckis reteam for BEOWULF'!'

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with an interesting little bit of potential cool-ass casting for Robert Zemeckis' BEOWULF, currently being adapted by Roger Avary and Neil Gaiman. I love me my Crispin Glover and the thought of him playing Grendel in a BEOWULF flick has me happy as can be. Fangoria reported this tidbit from an interview with Glover. In the article, Glover says the role isn't nailed down yet, so it ain't official, but having that little bit of Crispin's trademarked bat-shit insanity in the role of Grendel would be cooler than cool, in my opinion. What do you folks think?
