IESB: Welling out of the running for JLA Superman

[S_H_F_4839]

I hope Routh is in this. He is a great Superman, imo. I believe Christian Bale has said that he wouldn't mind being in a JL movie, but only after tha third Nolan Bat-film. Ideally, if they can't get him, they should leave Batman out of the movie and put him in the likely sequel after Batman 3. If Bale still wants to do it, that is. They could replace Batman with Martian Manhunter in this movie.

I agree with that if they cast routh as superman in JL, but heres a thought they could try and talk bale into a cameo, have rouths superman approach batman in gotham after having heard of his exploits and suggest it to bales batman who turns him down but leaves it open with I'll think about it.

That's a good idea. As much as I love Batman, if he is to be replaced, I would rather see Mantian Manhunter, even a scaled down one (I imagine ALL his powers would be very difficult to show in the movie).

Besides, Batman will over shadow many of the others, besides Superman and Wonder Woman.

I hope they cast a beautiful unknown for Wonder Woman. Im sick of these 'prudes' playing "hard to get" with the part. Besides, WB will only have to pay them a ton of money for a so-so performance.

Imagine Jessica 'Bile' turning down Wonder Woman. What's she done? Play the "dumber than my younger sister" daughter on Seventh Heaven and show her panties in an Adam Sandler movie. Few other things but nothing worth breaking a sweat about.

If they MUST get a big star for Wonder Woman, I would rather see Sandra Bullock. At least all the bull%#it they have to go through with the ''name'' actors might come close to being worth the aggrivation.

Who needs Jessica Bile?

 

[super85]

I think Sandra Bullock is an extremely boring actress. And too old for Wonderwoman anyway.

 

[Crazymaverick]

I hope Winstead gets the part:

 

[Bug-Eyes]

Routhy sux

 

[The Marvel]

No, he doesnt.

Prove that he sucks and then get back to us.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea i thought he did well in SR the only things i really hated about the film was the suit and the story with the kid.

 

[I Am The Knight]

No, he doesnt.

Prove that he sucks and then get back to us.

LOL!! we have a winner!! t:t:

 

[Nightwing1977]

No, he doesnt.

Prove that he sucks and then get back to us.

You don't think Routh should suck him, do you?

 

[ZIPBAGS]

Rumors are still floating that Tom has been cast as Supes.

 

[Ita-KalEl]

Rumors are still floating that Tom has been cast as Supes.

It would be great, but what rumors? t:

 

[Wally West]

Probably from the boards at Iesb. Alot of people there never gave up on his casting despite all the reports stating otherwise. I doubt it happens. I would be happy with Tom though if it did. They could do alot worse, and it scares me that that's whats gonna happen.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

Why don't they want Tom Welling? He is even better than the idiot of Brandon Routh.

 

[Milkman95]

^Because they want a good actor, and Tom doesn't really qualify. Keep him on that cute little show of his, he's good there.

Emijayne herself is dropping hints that Welling got it in the end so I will go with him for now.

That pizza photo is irrelevant. It's in between seasons and a guy with his genes can get back into great shape in 8-12 weeks.

i am not angry.

peace.

Emijayne herself is dropping hints.....

Like what?

 

[Rogzilla]

Like what?

Mainly it seems that she wasn't disappointed with the casting. She has been a major Welling supporter through this so that is one way to look at it.

Or they just found a GREAT Superman. :-P

 

[GNR]

As much as I want Welling to be in this,it would be perfect,I doubt it's going to happen since Smallville introduced the Justice League on the show.Stories would conflict and charcter histories wouldn't line up.

If only the show didn't start using the JL.

 

[Bruce_Wayne29]

^Because they want a good actor, and Tom doesn't really qualify.

If that's the case Brandon doesn't qualify either... Copying Christopher Reeve's mannerisms during almost 3 hours with a third of his talent doesn't count as a great performance.

I didn't say anything about Brandon either.

Agreed, new actor all the way around.

Since SV had that little pretend JL in SV, it wouldn't be right having Welling in this.........

Well you havent been updating us much Emi!!! Just playing, I know you've been having your RnR.

Anyways, should I assume you already now who was actually cast as Supes?



I do know most of the cast. So does Robert at IESB. Since he's gonna be in L.A., he'll most likely get the rest of it before I do. I'm just happy this is finally gonna come out.

For the record though, I'm pretty happy about the cast so far.

Very possible that from what she knows ,Welling is in the movie, or that the guy cast please here.

she mentionned several times that she was ready to accept another actor than Welling, if he fit the bill (from her pov )

so it could go either way..

I am thinking the same as you! The league would be off! They are not going to cast the same guys as Flash and Aquaman as from Smallville. So bringing Tom into doesn't make since! Wait! That Flash was Bart on the Smallville show wasn't he? So maybe they could bring Barry and Wally into his world.....nah! Still just doesn't feel right! The wait is killing me! How much longer to we have to wait to get the real list! grrrrrrr!~

 

[moguy]

Those iesb boards are filled with some pretty scary Welling fans.

They mostly want a Smallville movie, it seems.
