Synopsis:
A mysterious spacecraft arrives on Earth, similar to the one that brought Superman himself here. From it emerges a young Kryptonian girl, who is , surprisingly, revealed to be the Man of Steel’s cousin, Kara Zor-El! Unfortunately, Darkseid, Lord of Apokolips, wants her to lead his Female Furies. Even Superman will need allies, such as Mr. Miracle and Metron. But while Superman will protect her, Kara may not want to be a warrior or a legacy, but a hero in her own right.
My director is Matt Reeves(Cloverfield)
I replaced Gavin Hood not because of fan dislike, but because Reeves can make a better action movie. The only problem is that usually a movie series doesn’t go too well with a new director(Superman [Donner-Lester], Batman [Burton-Schumacher], X-Men [Singer-Ratner])
Now for my cast:
Reprising their roles from the first two movies are:
Brandon Routh(Superman Returns) as Superman/Clark Kent
No explanation needed. I know that Henry Cavill has recently been cast, and I think he’d do a great job, but Routh is still number 1 on my list.
Zooey Deschanel(The Happening) as Lois Lane
A great actress that looks perfect for the part.
Logan Huffman(V) as Jim “Jimmy” Olsen
His character on “V” is nearly identical to my version of Jim, who Lois “accidentally” calls “Jimmy”. He now has a crush on Kara, the “Supergirl”.
Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay(Law and Order: SVU) as Dan Turpin and Maggie Sawyer
I will not explain this again. They are just perfect. I imagine Turpin to have a larger role and a mysterious personal grudge against Darkseid. He would die at the end.
Characters that have appeared in one of the two movies:
Jim Caviezel(Passion of the Christ) as Jor-El
Caviezel is an amazing actor that even looks a little like Routh.
Nicole Kidman(Batman Forever) as Lara Lor-Van
She’s been in crappy movies but she’s still an awesome actress.
Jeff Bridges(Tron: Legacy) as Jonathan Kent
He was a great father in “Tron” and could pull off the same to Superman(and later Supergirl).
Julianne Moore(Next) as Martha Kent
Like I’ve said before, I want a Martha that can fight to defend herself, and Moore is perfect for this.
Now for new characters:
Amber Heard(The Informers) as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl
She’s a great actress that looks the part and is the obvious fan favorite. Elisha Cuthbert would also have been good but she’s a little too old for this role.
Gerald Butler(300) as Zor-El
He’s a great actor, and even looks a bit like Caviezel.
CGI/voice of David Sobolov(Justice League: Heroes[vg]) as Darkseid
He was perfect voicing the Dark Lord of Apokolips in “JL:Heroes”
Robert Carlyle(Eragon) as Desaad
He already played a similar character in “Eragon”.
Kathleen Turner(Law and Order) as Granny Goodness
She sounds just like Ed Asner and you can’t really say sh doesn’t look like Granny, at least not in the pic above.
Jessica Alba(Fantastic 4) as Lashina
She does look the part and since this is a minor role, not much acting ability is needed.
Tyler Mane(X-Men) as Kalibak
He looks the part and this wouldn’t be too different from Sabertooth.
Ian McKellen(X-Men) as Metron
He looks exactly like Metron and has a great voice for it too. He’s also an amazing actor.
Daniel Craig(Cowboys vs. Aliens) as Orion
Who else is bad@$$ enough to play the Dog of War himself?
Ioan Gruffudd(Fantastic 4) as Scott free/Mr. Miracle
He’s already voiced him in JLU and is short enough for the role.
Jodi Lyn O’Keefe(Lost)
A lot of people(cough*LEEE777*cough) want her for Wonder Woman. I personally think she’s not good-looking enough for the Amazon Princess. Now, I’m not saying she’s ugly, but Wonder Woman needs to be almost godlike. She is, though, scary and bad-@$$ enough to be Barda.
