Members lovely_m Posted November 19, 2010 Members Share Posted November 19, 2010 If Superman Returns was not to your liking, then you're in luck. Casting for a new Superman movie has already begun. Guess Routh won't be playing Superman again. http://www.deadline.com/2010/11/exclusive-the-casting-search-for-superman-begins/#more-82121 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted January 30, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted January 30, 2011 Don't know who this guy is but hopefully he's good. WARNER BROS. PICTURES AND LEGENDARY PICTURES BURBANK, CA, January 30, 2011 – Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures announced today that Henry Cavill has won the coveted role of Superman, the iconic superhero. The film will be directed by Zack Snyder, who stated, “In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time, and I am honored to be a part of his return to the big screen. I also join Warner Bros., Legendary and the producers in saying how excited we are about the casting of Henry. He is the perfect choice to don the cape and S shield.” Charles Roven, Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Deborah Snyder are the producers of the film. The screenplay is being written by David S. Goyer based on a story by Goyer and Nolan. Thomas Tull and Lloyd Phillips are serving as executive producers. Cavill recently wrapped production on “The Cold Light of Day” and stars in the upcoming “Immortals,” opening this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 He was in The Tudors and I liked him on that show. I'm just glad that it's not Routh or Welling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 Henry Caviill! What an inspired choice. You would sooner associate him with something like James Bond, but he will look a perfect Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 Not a bad choice, now to find the perfect actress for Lois Lane and actors for Perry and Jimmy. I wish they would use Aaron Ashmore for the movies, he was perfect as Jimmy on SV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 You've never seen THE TUDORS??!!!!!! He doesn't necessarily have the "Superman" look but he can act. This is what you call a BIG break lol Hopefully he's a great choice for the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 I dunno, pics I've seen of him I can buy as Superman. People said the same thing about Brandon Routh, that he looked too young and whatnot. I was hoping Matthew Bomer would get it LOL, but I like this choice. I love Anne Hathaway but please don't cast her or Natalie Portman as Lois. Erica Durance Lois is gonna be hard to top IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted January 31, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted January 31, 2011 Nope. But I'll eventually watch it because I like British royalty. Anne was just cast Catwoman so she's definitely not going to be Lois Lane. If I'm going for a name actress, my choice would be Rachel McAdams. I wouldn't mind someone who's not really known either.

Members dragonflies Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Apparantly Kevin Costner is being considered for Jonathan Kent in the movie. Good choice IMO. He can do the middle America Farmer as we saw in "Field of Dreams" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Great casting, I love Cavill, (would have been fine with their second choice, Joe Manganiello)--though I agree with the eternal grump Alan Moore (who wrote Watchmen and would have never allowed a movie but lost the rights)--Zack's fanboy tendencies unfortunately always have a somewhat silly whiff of homophobia to them--besides cutting the pro gay elements of Watchmen, there's the villain in 300 (which Zack said he played up as gay because he thought nothing would be scarier to a heroic buff man than a killer who might also want to [!@#$%^&*] him lol--hilarious in a movie that relishes the homoerotic)... The only irony is in the recent EW article they go on about how they wanted a much more mature and older looking Superman this time around. Henry, IMHO isn't that (even if he doesn't look as boyish as Routh did) and isn't he 26 or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Henry? Boyish? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I never called him boyish (I said he was less boyish than Routh but didn't mean to imply he was still boyish ). But he does look like a younger Superman to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 4, 2011 Members Share Posted March 4, 2011 Looks like they cast Diane Lane as Martha Kent. Good choice IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
