RUMOR: Is Nathan Fillion Being Considered For Superman?

No your thinking about ANT-MAN that he's up for

TABOO13 - What the HELL are you on, and more importantly, did you bring enough to share with everyone?! ...Pattinson for Superman??!! ...rumors of Taylor 'Sharkboy' Lautner appearing in 'X-Men: First Class'???!!! What the HELL is the comic book world coming to???!!!! These movies demand TALENTED actors who actually CAN act, not overblown, overhyped Disney rejects who's only real 'gift' is a genetic disposition to stand there and 'look pretty'!!! Otherwise these projects will be reduced to the laughing-stock material of say a 'Twilight' film! NO!! Oh HELLLLLLL NO!!!!!

In my opinion, Fillion would have been best suited as Green Lantern, not Ryan 'Van Wilder' Reynolds! My vote for the Big Blue Schoolboy is:



...John Barrowman!!!

I like Fillion and all, but Superman?? HA!!!!!!!!!!

Um...source?

Where did u get this rumor?

@Superguy1591: I like what you said and it's true. Superman represents the very ideals and values that we as humans must work and strive for. I hope whoever they cast will have the integrity towards the character and will always know which direction Superman must go. That is also why I do not want Brandon Routh to return...he still reeks of "Superman Returns" and is a hack of an actor. I used to be against Tom Welling because he's too associated with Smallville and I wanted a fresh new face...but sometimes getting someone who's "too fresh" wouldn't work either...plus Tom Welling really does look the MOST like Superman, he looks more like Superman than Reeve. So I- as a Superman-fan (not a smallville fan) will finally vote in favor of Welling. He's got the look and the acting chops and at this point Green Lantern is gaining so much steam, we need someone like Welling with his experience in the role. My close friend is hardcore GL/Hal and I"m hardcore Supes. I want to be able to tell him, my favorite hero beat his in the new films. :)

does anyone else realize a TV star can also mean HBO which means The Tudors which means Henry Cavill :P
so all you Cavill for Superman fans can still have your hopes up! :D

TABOO @ people tell me I look like Robert Pattinson a lot....I take it as a compliment cause A LOT of girls find him attractive xD hahah

@loganoneil - Alright thanks, I've never seen those the only time I hear of him is on this.

@McLovin- Thanks for the kudos, it's good for us Superman-fans to be free here to discuss our own ideas and share our thoughts on the new Supes film coming out. I just hope it can stand up to the Batman and GL trilogies. I have heard nothing of a possible trilogy coming from this reboot, but I sure hope they consider the idea. If no trilogy then I'm fine with one REALLY epic film. And yeah, Tom Welling totally looks the part, I mean...he EMBODIES the near-exact physical attributes of Superman. And if given the role in the new film...he would be the TRUEST of all Supermen since he has played Clark Kent for 10 years now and then of course upgrading to Superman. I hope they go with Welling rather than take a chance with some unknown like Routh again. Because WB CANNOT [frick] up this new film...they already [frick]ed up the last one...if they [frick] up this next one, then I'm scared that that'll be it for our big blue boyscout on the big-screen. He needs to be done justice finally like all the other heroes...WB needs to get their act together and give him a decent villain with decent action- PLEASE WB LET HIM THROW AT LEAST ONE FREAKEN PUNCH THIS TIME. Let him actually FIGHT someone this time around- he's a SUPERHERO for pete's sake, i'm sick of "soap-opera-supes"

Hey Taboo alot girls tell me I look like Rob Pattinsons Father. Does that score me any points or what? No? Alright fine!.........Got any picks of your Mom?
Just kiddin'. =P

Oh I know man. I'm just funnin' myself. :D

...but I do got big wood for my Boy Fillion....but you know in a totally hetero kinda way...

Does Serenity make sense without seeing anything else? It's a instant netflix thing. May watch that if it stands alone.

Clint@ It is definetly worth watching. I have probably watched Firefly four times. But you can watch Serenity without having watched the series dude.

I think Fillion would be really awesome as Superman.Also I'm a BIG Smallville fan but I don't know if I'd want to see Tom Welling as Superman though I do think he is probably one of the few actors who thoroughly understands the character.

Were we all delighted about the idea of Jonathan Nolan directing? I mean, he's never directed anything before.

No. That is all. No.

Oh God, please God no. This person, Castle, looks wierd. That's the best way to say it. He looks wierd as hell.
