It's too soon.

Didn't we just have an embarrassing superman flop a few years ago?

There's no creativity in hollywood.

I have never really been a fan of Superman. I guess I just haven't looked into it enough. Anyways I think it's great us Brits are getting a shot with the superheroes. Superman, Batman, Spiderman...
Yeeeaahh Britain! :D

He was interesting on The Tudors though they seem to have thrown him into the background in the last season. I'll give him a shot, but am not excited about the Superman idea in general.

*shudder* *shudder* Nick cage is a good actor all things considered, but he would be a horrible Superman. He doesnt even look like superman! Anyone with common sence would know that he is the second worst person to play superman. (the absolute worst possible superman actor? Shai LaBouff)

BTW who is Henry Cavill?

Actually, I had thought Brandon Routh as the last Superman had done a pretty decent job, even though a lot of people didn't like the movie itself. Routh had done a great Christopher Reeve imitation; I guess we'll have to see if this new guy does the same, or puts a new spin on the Man Of Steel.

Since Henry Cavill is British, whoever is cast as Lois Lane should also be British.

Very true. Nick Cage just needs better scripts.
