[FCEEVIPER]

Looking forward to this!

 

[Union Jack]

Cool.gotta love the big blue!!

 

[Primal Slayer]

He can draw but some of his people look very scary to me.

 

[Sawyer]

Matt Bomer voicing Superman?!
John Noble voicing Brainiac?!!!

Impressive... most impressive.

You beat to me too it t:

It's so good we're finally getting a Superman whose not overly bulky on top. I think they have got him looking right before in CO2E, Superman/Shazam & Young Justice but this is the first time I think they've got his look right on his own feature.

Considering that they're basing it off of Superman: Brainiac, it's no surprise that we're getting a slightly leaner Superman. Gary Frank has stated that he doesn't like Superman who is excessively bulky and looks like he goes to the gym. He's Superman, he doesn't need the gym.

Agreed, I prefer Superman's physique to be muscular but lean, which he is here. I never understood the body buider buid at all. How is the Clark Kent persona supposed to work when he's Super huge.

P.S Matt Bomer vocie Superman is awesome.

John Noble voicing Brainiac?

Yeah, this just shot up on my "most anticipated" list.

 

[Nightwing 52]

You gotta give it up to Stana Katic. She's already nerdtastic in Castle, then she voiced Talia in Arkham City and now this.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Matt Bomer finally gets to play Superman. Good for him.

Looks fantastic...

I look forward to adding this to my collection, It's nice to see the Classic Superman still having a strong presence in animation. As a Supes fan it's nice that I still have this media source still I pray it never changes . I hate what 52 has done to Superman & the rest of the DCU .

 

[Doc Ock]

I need to hurry up and read Brainiac! Greatly looking forward to this. I've enjoyed every adaption of Superman in the DCU so far. Although its been ages since I saw Doomsday...

 

[Mace Dolex]

Superman looks like Nic Cage...

I'm all for a Nicolas Cage'd voiced Superman in one of DC animated films, it would be hilarious.

I'm hoping he replaces Channing Tatum as Superman in that Lego movie with Will Arnett as Batman.

Really?! I didn't know Tatum was voicing Superman, god he can't enunciate correctly on screen I can imagine how unbearable it is to just hear his voice.

 

[HighFivingMF]

He dropped out. As far as I know, nobody's replaced him yet.

 

[Gabe99]

John Noble voicing Brainiac?

Yeah, this just shot up on my "most anticipated" list.

Me too!

Excellent voice cast. Stana Katic's voice is utterly perfect for Lois. The only one that gives me pause is, ironically, Bomer, simply because his voice is the only thing about him that doesn't scream "Superman" to me. He looks the part, and could certainly act the part, but I've never really thought he had that Superman voice. Oh well, I'm happy to give him the benefit of the doubt because I love him and it's nice to see him finally get the chance to play the role in something other than a commercial, lol. The rest of the casting is great, too. And while the arc this is based on was just a decent read to me, I love Brainiac as a villain, so I'm definitely looking forward to this.

Did anyone get a chance to watch that featurette on YT before WB took it down? Did it have previews of the voices?

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Yes it did and Brainiac is awesome. Actually, they're all very good, from what I heard.

 

[flickchick85]

Damn, sad I missed it then, haha.

 

[Young Superman]

Love the character design for Superman in this film.

 

[Number 6]

Superman looks like Nic Cage...

Now all I can think of is this being a totally original film with Nic Cage voicing Superman as he goes through the most bizarre, insane, crazy adventures through the 5th dimension. I'm not sure at all why something so elaborate comes to mind just from that, but dammit, you ruined this movie for me now.

 

[LeMartien]

Matt Bomer finally gets to play Superman. Good for him.

he was superman in Ratner's commercial for Toyota

[Indy Flash]

Its gonna be good.

 

[EML420]

Kickass Bomers voice is a great choice for Supes. (Imo I think he would be a better live action Batman than supes.)

 

[Young Superman]

Am I the only one who likes Superman: Unbound's design for Superman?
