Actors are constantly putting themselves forward for superhero roles, and obviously that rarely (if ever) ends up with them getting the gig come casting time -- but it is a good way to gauge fan reaction at the same time, and if the right people happen to be paying attention...well, who knows? The latest actor to name drop a superhero is Glee's Harry Shum Jr., who reveals to MTV Geek that he would love nothing more than to suit up as Batman's former protege, Nightwing. "I love it," Shum tells the site. "I mean, I grew up on comic books and superheroes, so right now it's the rage. But I've been wanting to play him since I was a kid, so it'd be a dream come true... I'm game, man! Put me in a super hero movie, put me in a Star Wars movie, and I can die happy." Makes sure he gets Star Wars in there while he's at it! So whaddaya think CBMers? Can you see it?
