Viggo Mortensen May Be Cast in Superman?

[Wheels]

I'm glad Viggo droped out of Snow White. Time for Arnold to get back on that acting horse.

"An apple a day keeps The Huntsman away."

Viggo has to be Zod. The regality of Aragorn and the bat**** crazy from Eastern Promises.

 

[GreenKToo]

I will tolerate Zod to land Mortensen. I know I'm backtracking but hell, it's Viggo Mortensen.

I agree. I'm not crazy about the idea of Zod either, but if Mortensen plays him, then bring em' on.

Costner leaked a month before it was announced; Adams is announced on the day Snyder has 1 legit bomb open. I think the principle cast is probably set, and being gradually leaked.

And I think the reason that Snyder said last week that Viggo wont be in it is because the role has already been cast.

 

[KRIM]

The article states the casting was only made concrete this morning. Zack is in Paris promoting, and he had to phone Adams to inform her.

 

[Superark]

If Viggo is cast, I'll be stoked! This film is really shaping up with a fantastic cast

 

[Wheels]

Your avi rocks!

 

[Superark]

Your avi rocks!

If you mean mine, thanks!

I'm all for Viggo being in this movie, but damn, I just hope it's not for Zod. I'll accept it if it is though, I guess.

Still, I liked that suggestion of Viggo as the Lone Ranger. He would be SO perfect for that because he's great at playing Western gunslinger types (Appaloosa, Hidalgo).

With Tonto being the lead, I think we are getting a Dudley Do-Right type Lone Ranger. Don't think Viggo would fit that.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Is Tonto actually going to be the lead, or are people just saying that because it's Johnny Depp?

 

[Wheels]

Gore seems to imply that with in the bits I've read. But maybe I'm wrong.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Ugh, I hope not. I love Depp, but the story is called The Lone Ranger for a reason.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Technically, The LONE Ranger shouldn't have a sidekick.

 

[Lone]

[Wheels]

Well Tonto is not a ranger, so he is the lone ranger of the duo.

 

[sf2]

make it happen pls!

 

[DIRECTOR]

I do see him as Zod..............

But do you think he can play Jor-El!!!

I could see that, I mean he did play Aragon in LOTR, a leader, a king, why not Superman biological father.

 

[KalMart]

This is actor Timothy V. Murphy......

.....who I thought was Viggo Mortensen in those hysterical Direct TV commercials where he plays an eccentric Russian.....

So if they can't get Mortensen...they should just get that guy.

 

[Wilde]

Viggo Mortensen as Lex:

 

[Rodrigo90]

Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemoooooonnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like he says, he is "epic win" who will "push the limit...every time". t:

 

[BH/HHH]

I wish we'd here something soon on the villain and if Viggo is playing that villain

 

[DIRECTOR]

I could see Viggo as Jor-El or Metallo

The first villan should be Metallo, he is more realistic (other than Lex)

 

[Zack Snyder]

Lol people want him as any villain that isn't Zod, because they are afraid to say they would prefer no Zod at all
