Actor Robert Knepper, best known for playing about the sleaziest guy ever on Fox's Prison Break, is rumored to have a role in the upcoming X-Men spinoff Wolverine, according to the Denver Post. The article neither says specifically what Knepper's role will be nor explains how to pronounce his last name. For folks who want to tell their friends the news, DT suggests "The creepiest guy from Prison Break" as a viable substitute.

Knepper is one of those character actors you've almost certainly seen, but probably don't know who he is (unless you watch Prison Break. His credits include Good Night, and Good Luck; Carniv?le; and Everyone Says I love You. He can be seen this month in Hitman. His upcoming projects include a remake of The Birds, and he's rumored to be the next Bond villain, according to the article.

Wolverine stars Hugh Jackman, is written by David Benioff (Troy), and is directed by Gavin Hood (Rendition). It is scheduled for a 2009 release.
