What I've heard from Marsters in the BrVS mag (maybe the Angel mag. It was
one of them) is that of a Spike movie isn't done in a certain amount of
time
(I think he said about 5 years from the end of Angel) he's absolutely not
interested. He said that since Spike isn't supposed to age as a vampire,
Marsters would have aged enough (he'd be in his mid/late 40s) that it
wouldn't work.
