Report: I’ve been saying this all along, “Superman” actor will be an unknown and not a big name!!

Well Chris Nolan, keeps himself busy with both “Dark Knight: Rises” and Snyder’s “Superman”! You know, all you Superman fans out there naming all of these big name stars is just a waste of time. I’ve been saying the whole time that Superman will possibly be an unknown actor. That’s what WB’s and Chris Nolan are going for. They are not going for Jon Hamm, Brandon Routh, Tom Welling, Armie Hammer and all those other popular names that will be listed.

All the Superman actors from the past: George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain, Tom Welling, Brandon Routh, etc. They were all unknowns. I’m glad Chris is staying true to this. WB’s and Chris Nolan plan on going for an actor with no acting experience at all or lesser known TV actors. It’s a smart move, in my opinion.

See the story here at, Deadline.

It’s okay to pick big name stars for Lois, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, etc., but Superman/Clark Kent can’t be a big name. For a good reason too! The Superman film makers are still keeping their mouth shut on the plot and I’m sure we’ll hear something about the plot soon. Hopefully the plot will be different. We already had plenty of this Krypton, Smallville and Metropolis plots, we already know those stories so hope this will be an original story this time around.
