Wow, way to stay on topic there, chief. But since you called me out on it....I'm of the opinion that it WAS up to him, it certainly wasn't because WB didn't want to show the character/costume of Superman, since there WAS multiple shots of the suit itself in the FOS and a CGIed Superman
in that very episode. It had nothing to do with a movie that's still nearly 2 years away. The only logical explanation is that Welling didn't want to wear it, even though it's the least he could've done after 10 years of his complete lack of acting talent.
Oh well, at least you're whining about something other than your "Cavill's hair" thread being deleted or someone having the nerve to mention James Earl Jones once being on Lois & Clark when you mentioned it first or whatever. Now why don't you run along and go pray that maybe someday you'll see Welling again if someone decides to make "Cheaper By The Dozen III: The Cheapening".
