Ladies and Gentlemen, Meet Your Superman

Thanks to ellyfanfiction 's post on TWoP, I now know that this man is playing Clark Kent:

I love Henry Cavill. He's actually my ideal Bruce Wayne :) But I'd be wrapped with him playing Clark too.

[latetothpartyhp]

I'd heard he'd been considered for Bruce. I'm having a hard time imagining that... at least, a hard time imagining that in a Nolan movie. I have an easier time seeing him as Clark because I thought Stephen had a lot of Clark-like qualities: he was loyal, he had a rather old-fashioned sense of propriety, he was a pretty good keeper of secrets, and in the end I thought he showed a better sense of "right-action" than all the very sophisticated people around him.

Plus he's smokin' hot.

Have you seen my Batman/Smallville verse banners? I picture him as Bruce Wayne in both movies easily :D Oh boy, if you haven't seen his Dunhill ads, wow. Talk about smoldering sexy.

[latetothpartyhp]

I googled him and saw a couple w/an undo bow-tie that looked a little Bond-ish.* Is that the one? Yeah, I guess I could see him as Bruce Wayne: Billionaire Playboy. I don't think any of the Bats I've seen on screen have really managed that well, except maybe Clooney (who, unfortunately imo was not up to the rest of the role).

*I also saw a couple of shots where it looked as if he'd recently been kidnapped by a Marine's barber; his security staff needs to get on that, because that never, ever should have been allowed.

He reminds me of Gilbert Blythe from Anne of Green Gables.

[latetothpartyhp]

Lol. Yeah, he does in that picture.

But then iluvaqt  kindly pointed me in the direction of his Dunill ads:

[sue_denim]

Yes, he's a good piece of man-meat.

[latetothpartyhp]

*nods*

I know I would not object if he, uh, attempted to save me from evil-doers.

[latetothpartyhp]

I doubt Tom would have wanted the role; he seems to me as if he's ready to move on to the next phase of his life (directing/producing).

But yes. Superman will be hot.

There was a rumor in November that Anne Hathaway was being considered. I love her as an actress but I can't picture her... Another name thrown around was Rachel McAdams, I love her too and actually I can picture her as Lois.

[latetothpartyhp]

If Anne Hathaway's going to be Catwoman I can't see her also playing Lois Lane (although who knows...).

I would support a Rachel McAdams Lois. I remember when I saw the previews for "Morning Glory" thinking she seemed very fresh and funny.

[laurelnola]

I'm so excited that he got cast! He's awesome!! PLEASE let them cast an equally awesome Lois Lane! *fingers crossed*

[latetothpartyhp]

Well, by this point I should hope they would know how not to cast Lois.

bwahaha!
