We know the movie isn't going to begin filming until at least next year, right? (When Watanabe will be 53.)

Or possibly in some sort of a medically induced coma but, for all intents and purposes, clinically dead.

It's just not a risk worth taking. Especially since it's not like he has some huge following which will guarantee great global box office.
What the hell are you talking about? It's not like people drop dead at 60. Look at a film like the Expendables people can still do action films in there 50's.
