Harry Lennix Officially Joins Man Of Steel As "General Swanwick"!

Nice.

well he's a good actor but IMO it would have been cool seeing him as Ron Troupe I understand he's older than Troupe is in the comics but it would have been nice to see other supporting characters from the Daily Planet like Lombard and Grant but oh well fingers crossed this turns out well. And sounds like the military is going to play a big role does that mean that rumour from a while back about Superman going up against the military is true, I don't remember zod being mentioned in that rumoured plot so who knows

@Hellsing

he would be too old for that character remember Ron Troupe marry Lucy Lane

OOOOBAAMAAAA!!!

@TheGODDAMNSUPERGUY

my bad lol

also yes Gordon alway had a son in the comics James Gordon Jr

like a lot of people i had him down as playing the president

cool. he is good actor.

Meloni should play Jax-Ur who like rumors are saying is replacing Zod´s hulking sidekick Non.

@jazzman not a bad choice but the way things are going I doubt we'll see the Daily Planet crew get expanded which is sad

This film just gets more and more interesting. The military vs. Zod and Superman?? There has to be another villain in here somewhere. Many people were mentioning Metallo who was part of the military. It would make sense and would make the movie much more interesting.

Never knew his name till now...

Superman over Cap anyday

@nailbiter and banekill- I agree...who the [frick] is that character???

@JULEZ- Agreed, this film is lookin more and more militaristic by the day.

@naterator- Yeah, just at least a hint of brainiac at the end is sufficient. IF this film were to just be the first of a possible trilogy. For a one-off film I'm hoping they find a way to introduce Brainiac. It isn't fair they keep giving that character the shaft every single time a new Superman film comes out.

@Hellsing and jazzman- I agree with you both. We need the daily planet crew in this flick. Perry, Jimmy heck even Cat Grant. I'm surprised Dan Turpin won't be in this film. He would have been a great addition to the movie for the Metropolis PD. Lex Luthor...I wish was in the film but obviously he won't be. I guess they really are taking Superman away from the world we once knew in the comics and they'd rather make up characters who never existed in the comics rather than using pre-existing/already-established characters. Typical of Nolan. But sad for the really hard-core fans who grew up with those characters. I'm still really excited for the film and it's still my #1 CBM. But my hopes for an updated Daily Planet crew and a chance to see the REAL, TRUE Lex Luthor from the comics, are dead now.

@Banekill- Nice catch actually. The likeness is incredible.

I wasn't big on Voyager. I loved TOS, TNG and the more recent 'Enterprises' prequel series.

Tim Russ was good as a Vulcan though ;D

He's a great actor. He has been a great actor in every role he has portrayed thus far. Im not surprised by the condescending remarks by some of the folks on this message board.
