Casting For Superman Reboot Has Not Begun!

I am upset they are going to half ass this movie but if that is what it takes for WB to keep the rights then fine I will sacrifice.

@bleedthefreak- NICE update but why upload such a gay looking pic of the guy? I prefer the one in the business suit that "Superguy1591" posted.

So now it's likely between this guy and Matthew Goode? Odd choices to say the least but hey- AT LEAST WE GET A NEW SUPERMAN.

WB better not [frick] it up again or i'll be so [frick]en pissed i swear i'm sick of them. They have [frick]ed up 3 Superman films so far AND Smallville is NOT helping Superman's image. If they can give GL a badass film, they should be able to do the same with Superman.

He deserves a WORTHY OPPONENT. He needs to fight someone already. Keep Lex in the film he is ESSENTIAL but have him as a side-villain aiding the main villain. I vote- Luthor and Brainiac of course but since WB never wants Superman to fight, they just might go back to Supes being all "touchy-feely" and never throwing a punch.

Batman has thrown plenty of punches in the Nolan films. GL will be throwing punches (particularly a giant fist through the use of his ring) so why can't Superman be given the SAME respect as them? He is the FIRST so he deserves the BEST film of the three. It makes no sense for WB to say "Ok Batman and GL, you guys get the BEST movies. Supes...[frick] you" That is basically what WB has been doing to Supes through the years. I mean come on- "Superman Returns" ??? "Smallville"???

That is all bullshit. Superman deserves better. He deserves a REAL enemy. A REAL physical threat is all the fans want at this point. No more whining, no more stalking lois, no more child-support issues, no more of the- "I feel so alone" emo crap.

GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT- A REAL fight is what is necessary at this point. 5 boring Superman films without the use of his actual rogues gallery except for- Lex and Zod is pathetic.

If I could smack WB upside the head I would. They just have no respect for Big Blue.

I end this rant with- [frick] YOU WARNER BROTHERS. The new film better not take place completely in West Africa, we need him back in Metropolis at some point AND I don't want the "warring tribes" to be the villains of the film- THAT IS SO [frick]ING LAME. We all have wanted Brainiac. Stop being little douchebags and stop dancing around the issue WB, give the fans what we want.

I'm with the majority: new Superman, no homages with past actors. The homages are nice. Between "Smallville" and Singer's sequel, they are more than done!

Fresh faces, script, interpretation = good for audiences and box office!

Donner and Reeve need to be toppled from their sky-high throne once and for all. For the past 3 decades they have ruled. I want this new Superman to top Reeve.

And I want Snyder to really make his mark ABOVE Donner.

New generation deserves a NEW Superman. Routh=Reeve. To me that is just 'more of the same'

-_-

@Superguy1591- I tend to agree. Batman, Spider-Man and even though they aren't heroes- both Sinestro AND Joker were all portrayed by Brits (Ledger was Australian but i believe was a British territory or somethin)

That's a lot of good wholesome American comic book characters gone British. If Supes goes British that is ok with me. I prefer an American of course but I am fine with a Brit. Just as long as the guy LOOKS like Supes and can act and is of course a NEW face.

@Superguy1591- Cavill? Meh.

He is too "obvious" of a name. I want an actor chosen that NONE of us have ever thought of. Joe M would be GREAT I know but I just don't see him getting the part.

I just wish WB would already start casting, i mean damn. I guess it is good too though- means they are actually taking their time with this film. Perhaps completely RUINING 3 Superman films had finally taught Warner Bros a good lesson??

Doubt it. But we can only hope. For Superman's sake.

Someone on here used to throw Matt Bomer's name around a lot for Supes. I thought it was terrible because he is so skinny, but then every time I'd watch White Collar I would just see Clark Kent. If Bomer could bulk up for Supes like Chris Evans has for Cap I think he'd be a good choice. There is the issue of his voice though, Bomer's voice is not Superman's voice.

I hope his experience of voicing the character in the animated All-Star Superman adaptation would help him portray the character live action if he's chosen but he does have a good look for it nonetheless.

Furthermore @itbegins2005- WB has a hatred for Supes I can feel it. I mean they once considered nic cage for the role -_- that is pathetic. Now their recent film track record with their big-name heroes: Batman got 'Begins' an epic film and then TDK an even MORE epic film. Green Lantern is looking to have an epic first film maybe topping 'Begins' even. Superman got 'Returns'- a HORRIFYING disappointment and now it is getting rebooted- PATHETIC. They might not HATE Superman but Superman IS their most bastardized hero. That is a fact. WB dont care bout Supes

Ehh, I was really looking forward to this, but now, it isn't looking good at all.

Does anyone else think we should let Superman go. I'm I the onlyone who thinks it is a time come and past for this character.

@Sweetre15- ya stupid WB opted not to make a sequel but they were the assholes who "ok'd the script. They always do this shit where they hype up a Supes film then totally [frick] it up the ass. I remember being so excited back in 06' only to be disappointed. WB sucks and have zero respect for Superman AND his fans

Davis would make one ugly Superman.

As for them not casting anyone yet, it's because they're waiting for Smallville to end so they can hire Tom Welling.

I'm gonna get a lot of flack for that one.. ;-)
