VOICES FROM KRYPTON: And then there are all of those Internet rumors about Tom Welling being cast as Superman…

GREGORY NOVECK: Not happening, if for no other reason than it would just confuse the issue.

GREGORY NOVECK: I don’t really see it as a conflict. And it’s better for the actors, frankly. If there are a couple of guys playing Batman or Superman, at least those guys don’t get pigeon-holed for the rest of their careers

My take:

We all know W.B. aint gonna please all fans; but casting NIETHER of the 2 choices is extremely stupid. If it wasnt Routh; I was expecting Welling and vice versa.

I see no logic at all in not casting either of them; it shoulda been one or the other.

If the choice sucks; all fans must unite to stop this ***** from being made!

That was a great read. He makes plenty sense and I agree with him.

 

[Thunder Emperor]

BUT casting a teenage look alike is worse. Seriously you know that in all seriousness. Fan would rather have Welling or Routh. Rather tan teen JLA

Thats what I mean. I thought welling was worst case scenario until i read what they were apperently considered; which i couldnt believe theyd even think about

BUT there are other actors I can think of who can do the role; so Ill save my hate/jubilation till we get some kind of official word.

They claimed they are casting a man in his late 20s to play Superman in JLA.

Batman will probably be cast around the same age range.

With Bale and Routh, there will be 2 Batmans and 2 Supermans now....

The audience will have to deal with that confusion.

Late 20s in hollywood is nothing; Adam Brody is 28

We'll have to wait and see; though rob at iesb said he has some very good potential news...

Hopefully that the movie is being cancelled.

 

[Steelsheen]

Even if JLA sucks, I'm looking forward to Batman TDK and Superman MoS now.

BIGTIME.

i'll have to agree, i was so hoping that JLA will hit it out of the ballpark, but as of this time, its starting to look more and more like mediocre effort.

No it means they unite against Superman #2. Remember Welling only plays a young Clark

"dat" as in slang/ghetto "that"

[Manosman]

superman #2 or #3 you guys know what i mean, i was just trying to make the sv fanboys feel a little bit better now that they know welling will never be superman.

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

Why not say "that" I'm confused

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

Excel what would you do if it all turned around and Welling was cast somehow?

 

[Manosman]

i have no idea

 

[Steelsheen]

united to support him or united to hate him?

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

I'm supporting whoever gets the role myself. Even it were Welling. By far not my first choice but I'd have hope that Miller could get what's needed out of him (and maybe lower his voice to sound more like Brandon's ) for the part.

People must see.. THE CHARACTER of SUPERMAN comes first

 

[Manosman]

i guess it depends on who they cast.

seriously; id move on and look forward to the other 5 heros
