Hollywood Insider says:
So we’ve got ourselves a new Superman, Henry Cavill.
Great actor, but hearing that it didn’t necessarily come down to that - who would be the best man for the job; the decision was eventually made by way of mathematical equation, ‘who is available to the movie in the window that we’ve got?’ Quite a few of Cavill’s competitors impressed, especially True Blood star Joe Manganiello, but they weren’t as readily available ‘right away’ as Cavill was.
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.
I don't mind the idea of Jessica Biel being cast in this role but I much prefer Malin Akerman in the role. She's hot, and has already portrayed a strong woman. None of the other actresses strike me as being able to pull it off. Bring in Kristen Stewart and I'll write this movie off immediately. I'd like to see Erica Durance take the role on but that'll never happen because they don't want to confuse the movie with SMallville.
Again, before I say it, I have absolutly nothing against any of th actors or actresses. I personally do not want to see Biel in this role at all. She is nice looking and a good actress, but thats just too big of a name in a role that shouldn't be that well known.
If they didnt pick Routh or other suggestions because of Snyders "we want lesser known names" then why change it now?
Well they should definitely go with the cartoon version in the submission image. If she's not available, then I would prefer they went with a less-recognizable actress. Am I getting grumpy or something, b/c I'm increasingly bothered by going to movies to see "Big Name Actor" play "Role"!
