SMALLVILLE SCOOP: Wrestler Matt Morgan Being Cast as Darkseid?

SMALLVILLE SCOOP: Wrestler Matt Morgan Being Cast as Darkseid?

According to tipster Mr. Vancouver, wrestler Matt Morgan is in talks to portray the physical emodiment of Doomsday on Smallville.

This is what we were told: "Morgan was one of the people up for the part of Doomsay in Season 8 but lost out to Dario Delacio. He stands at 7'0 tall and bulked up massive and I'm told there will be a costume to be worn a bit like the Doomsday costume, but not a full body suit; instead head gear and a body suit, but his natural arms and size will be painted grey along with face prosthetics. He will be introduced towards the very end of the season around Episode 20."



What do you think? Does this sound authentic?

well at least they aren't going cgi with it, they could never afford to do it justice that way. I think they might be able to pull this one off.

I like what I'm hearing. I'd want them to have a nice, long fight scene with Superman (not clark kent, but Superman).

i also want to see Green Arrow vs. Mad Harriet (justin vs lindsay hartley). A bit of domestic violence would liven things up

...then in the end, chloe makes a brief appearance, only to get shot

As long as they don't do the Galactus-cloud. Getting a real actor sounds like they won't. Good times.

When I say "real actor" I meant it in it's broadest possible sense.

If someone else provided the voice I am all for it.

it may work,if they use a ton of make-up like they did with creating "hellboy" & have someone else voice him.

but really he should be saved for a superman film more than a low budget shit tv show.

@ deadpool

agreed. didnt they learn that lesson when they tried to do doomsday?

this show has gone so far off the deep end i don't even put any energy into explaining how bad it is. it is seriously almost comical how bad they have screwed Superman up.

That's how they get you, MrDCUniverse. Deprive us of quality television, so when we get something that we are fans of on TV, it can be crappy and we'll still tune in to it every week.

By the way, all professional wrestlers are required to have their Screen Actors Guild cards with them when they perform. Refer to State of NJ vs. WWE

He was also an American Gladiator, so I think that Matt Morgan would do more justice to the role than that F-job that was Doomsday. I can only hope!
