Henry Cavill for SUPERMAN!

[The Bat]

Dude, Chris Nolan IS the GREATEST!

I just can't see Caviezel as Superman. I think Cavill looks more like him to me. And he's still young enough, that if they make more than one Movie...he could play the part for awhile.

Guess it depends on your take on the character . . . not to say anything bad/good one way or the other, but it just seems your take on Supes is younger and, well, prettier, while while others here see him as more mature and rugged . . . matter of taste and imagination.

Although, watch Caviezel in "Count" and maybe you'll change your mind a bit -- he plays the dual identity thing well, and it was actually his look and bearing in the scene when he strides from a just-landed hot air balloon with a big, red cloak flowing behind him that initially made me think of him as a contender for the Man of Steel.

Just sayin'.

I've seen the "Count"...great Movie! And Caviezel is an excellent Actor. As far as "my take" on Supe's age...it isn't just mine. Nolan dropped one hint about his age...he said "I want the Movie to be about a young Superman, just starting out".
There's a reason WB named him the "Godfather" of Superman. After "The Dark Knight" made a BILLION Dollars at the Box Office, they'll pretty much let him do anything he wants. He has final say in the Script, he chose the Director...need I say more?

Tom Welling clone.

They got the wrong guy from "Count of Monte Cristo" -- they should've gone with James Caviezel . . .

Exactly...




I don't want a young and pretty metrosexual playing Supes...I want a Supes with some testosterone for Christ's sake.

Superman's gotta have some Gerald Butler-esque size to him.
And Also needs to be roughly the same Age as Bale is ... , or look AS IF He could pass as the same. I wanna see that Worlds Finest Flick Myself, and if the Avengers Movie takes off ..., Warner will probably think the same, if they already are not.

I liked that Dude that Hector Posted ..., from True Blood. Keep that Teen Bop Choice Award Crap on TV.

Cavill looks like Gerard Christopher from the Superboy TV show. Why not just hire Gerard Christopher as he is older now an probably looks grown-up enough to play a Super-MAN. I don't know if he has the acting chops for the big screen but still...



Today:

[The Bat]

The same could be said of Cavill...that Photo Manip was from 2002. I imagine he looks a but older now.

Oh Dear God not another Freeking Pretty boy....

Superman Needs to look like this if you don't please do not apply for
acting position It's SuperMAN not Freeking SuperBOY!!!!!!

[The Bat]

I think we need to Clone Chris Reeve...because let's face it, he was THE BEST!

Hey! That's the first Superman casting suggestion I completely agree with you on!

Here's another possibility.

Ryan Mcpartlin

He's 35, could play 30 and is a comic geek. He's 6'3" and is fairly chisled, though he would need to put on a few pounds to be convincing. Just imagine him with black hair to get a feel for this idea. He's been on Chuck and a few other shows. I don't know of his acting skills, but I think he embodies the look pretty well.

I can see that(dye his Hair black). He has the Superhero Jaw which is very important...and he doesn't look like an old Geezer like John Hamm.

Where was this guy when they were casting out for Steve Rodgers?

[Earth 2 Chris]

Apparently, Flash Thompson is in the running to be Superman...
