Superman Wants to be in Warcraft Movie

Superman Wants to be in Warcraft Movie

Looks like Superman wants to put away the tights for now, and pick up a sword.

MTV spoke with Brandon Routh at San Diego Comic-Con and the "Superman Returns" star revealed that he's not only a big gamer, but specifically excited about the upcoming World of Warcraft adaptation:

I know they just announced that Sam Raimi is gonna be directing so that's very cool. And, again, my friends over at Legendary [who also produced "Superman Returns"] are working on that so, you know, I'm looking forward to what's gonna happen with that. Routh was obviously looking to express his interest in working on the movie and Raimi (he was even wearing a Warcraft t-shirt), but when pressed Routh remained a little coy:

You know, you might get a little action, a little sword-fighting. That'd be a lot of fun. Raimi won't start work on Warcraft until after he's finished Spider-Man 4, which means Routh will have some time to further market himself.

Cool, I like his acting and he has that big guy frame for action roles. Had he hit stardom before Sups Returns, he would easily be in the same league as Ryan Reynolds.

I like a bit of Brandon! hahaha. Seriously though he's very good. I actually loved him as Supes! And he played a completely different character in Zack and Miri. Hopefully Dead Of Night will be great too.
