Superman Returns Star Brandon Routh to Announce Operation Super Hero on Sunday

Recognizing that every dad is a Super Hero to his children, Warner Bros. Pictures is hosting special Father's Day events in anticipation of the Wednesday, June 28, release of Superman Returns, the new epic action adventure about the greatest Super Hero of them all.
On Sunday, June 18, Superman Returns star Brandon Routh, accompanied by his father, Ron Routh, will make a special appearance at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station in San Diego, California, where Brandon will host an advance screening of the film, primarily for kids whose own fathers are serving overseas.
While at Miramar, Brandon Routh will also be announcing details of the overall Operation Super Hero.
Footage of this event will be available on a Satellite Feed at the following dates, times and coordinates:

• Feed #1: Sunday, 6/18/06 20:00-20:15 ET (5:00pm-5:15pm Pacific) IA 6 / C 11 Downlink Frequency: 3920.000 V
• Feed #2: Monday, 6/19/06 10:30-10:45 ET (7:30am-7:45am Pacific) IA 6 / C 11 Downlink Frequency: 3920.000 V

In 50 markets nationwide, local groups and organizations -- including Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Boys and Girls Clubs, YMCAs, community centers, libraries and schools -- are hosting advance Father's Day screenings of Superman Returns on June 18. The special Father's Day screenings will give the children a rare opportunity to treat their "Super Dads" to a movie, with a surprise gift to top off the day: All of the dads will also receive a special edition Superman t-shirt.

“He did 67 interviews on Saturday and 55 interviews on Sunday, just one right after the other,” Ron Routh said.

Whoa! Routh is keeping busy!

 

[Mr. Credible]

[Kane]

Hes the man. If there was any one great thing to come out of this project, it would be Brandon Routh and the postive example he could set for this generation.

Now relized that buddy.

 

[MoviesKickAss]

Christopher Reeve would be proud

 

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Yeah, he always seemed like a pretty cool guy. He needs to play a kitten-killing murderer/rapist in his next movie to be cast against type for awhile.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

sort of ironic, being that he's in a movie about a guy who blows town for 5 years on his kid, no?

 

[JorEl]

You're going to get roasted for that comment, but it made ME laugh

A bit of lemon into the sugar
