Superman Set To Fly

Posted by samzenpus on from the faster-than-something-and-really-strong dept.

arock99 writes "After many years of battling various script rewrites, Superman is set to soar again. Various sources (superman-v.com, darkhorizons.com, aintitcool.com) report that Brandon Routh (of Gilmore Girls) has been cast as Superman. With production only a month away, Brian Singer is set to tackle yet another super-hero film after previously having directed both X-Men and X2. Had it not been for his recent passing, Christopher Reeve would surely have been part of the production team in some capacity. Superman should hit theaters around summer 2006."

    If nobody watches gilmore girls then you might want to see what brandon looks like he has the dark look of superman but only time will tell if he is suited to the part.

    The iPod Lite Project taking orders soon.

    Seriously, now... GILLMORE GIRLS??? PLEASE.

    They should rather have used the smallville dude. Why?
    Because chicks dig him (so thats 50% of the population covered who will be watching) and because he knows the role.
    People would relate better to him as superman as a result of the interesting effect of continuity. They cant just keep changing all the time!
