Not long ago, Warner Brothers announced that Zack Snyder was officially attached to direct the new installment in the Superman franchise, Man of Steel. So naturally, everyone’s next step is to debate which actor will be play him. The most widely publicized rumor, so far, claims that Mad Men star Jon Hamm is up for the dual role of Clark Kent/ Superman.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
This is probably the first time in a superhero film that I've really had no preference on an actor. Normally I have guys I think would be perfect, but there seem to be so many good candidates for Superman, that I'm mostly just waiting to see what the official word is. It's not that I don't care about Superman (I'm crazy excited for this project) I just can't decide who would be better than the other.
i still cant imagine Nolan and Snyder working together
although they're in the same field that Nolas is famous for
Nolan's approach to movies is different than Snyder's approach
Me.
I'm also a huge fan of the teaming up of Snyder and Nolan but for the casting of Supes, there really should be no debate. Brandon Routh. The guy cut his teeth on Superman Returns and like some of the others here, I didn't hate the movie like so many did but the real shining star of that movie was Brandon Routh and his ability to fill the big shoes of Superman. He was charismatic and oozed heroism and naivety and nerdiness of Clark Kent.
It sucks that he's not even being considered for the part. I'd also be perfectly ok with Tom Welling taking on the role but that'll never happen. I've heard there's been a modest growth in support for Joe Manganiello from True Blood to take on the role but something about the guy doesn't fit for me. I think he looks too Italian(?)...
At any rate I read somewhere who MTV thought "should play" the role of Superman: John Barrowman, Matthew Bomer, Henry Cavill, Jon Hamm and Brandon Routh and it seems those are the names that continually come up while trolling the internet. I can only agree with one and we all know which one that is.
they need to change superman up big time if they want it to fly... Singer is a good director but his super sucked ass...
they need to turn super man up on his head and make it darker... lose lex for now... bring in fresh meat for superman's cannon fodder...
they need an different angle I think something like an aged or gritter superman... not a clean cut super man... or one that becomes clean cut...
not a young no name actor as well they need a strong actor that has been there and done it...
they need that and they need to bulck him up...
