This casting is so spot-on!

Has Lombard appeared in a live action adaption yet? I can’t remember

He's in Man of Steel. He along with Perry save Jenny while the World Engine terraforms Metropolis.

And he says that really funny line "who ever did this deserves to die!" It was classic Lombard.

 

[Captain Tired]

I don't know him but he certainly has the look of a Lombard.

He's that guy in most if not all SNL sketches.

 

[Babillygunn]

I love his Lexus December to remember skit on SNL

Yeah that much I've learned through the Hype

He is much funnier out of SNL imo. The YouTube channel he had with Kyle is great stuff. Total milf, totally.

I'm unfamiliar with Bennett's work as I haven't watched SNL in years besides clips here and there, but I trust Gunn here and he certainly looks the part. I'm just glad Lombard is in this and for the potential of some awesome Daily Planet staff banter. Hoping Cat and Ron are in this film as well.

Really happy that Ron is getting some love and the casting for Lompard and Cat is perfect (even if Hoover doesn't go super Saiyan blonde for it).
One thing is clear, we're getting the Daily Planet dynamic that made L&C and the post Crisis Bryne era so much fun for a wee while. Something tells me Chickflick approves.

Now let's hope that Gunn already had talks with the Planet gang about their MAX spin-off...

LOL! That brings back some memories. Honestly though I would literally consider giving up my pinky toe for a Don Cheadle Captain Planet movie "The power is mine b***es"

 

[SupermansPal]

Clark completely towering over Lombard will be hilarious.

Must be a city thing for girls and guys to be so short.

 

[Sawyer]

Could be reaching, but what else do we have to talk about…?

 

[SupermansPal]

Seems like Mikaela will be part of the Ohio filming too.

Considering the talent involved, I'd love to see a Daily Planet Crew spinoff!

I thought we agreed to call them The Daily Planeteers!
