Actors who were considered to play Superman in this film


-Josh Hartnett - Like with Batman, he also turned this one down, and to me he doesn't scream Superman.
-Jude Law - Nah
-Paul Walker - Interesting choice, but had it happened, we wouldn't have gotten any more Fast movies with him after 2006.
-Matt Bomer - Looks the part and he later voiced the character.
-Brendan Fraser - Could have pulled it off ten years before but okay
-Ashton Kutcher - Bad choice, glad he turned it down
-David Boreanez - I would have seen him more of Bats than Supes, but I could have been wrong
-Ian Somerhalder - Could have pulled it off
-Henry Cavill - Good choice, but I'm glad he got the part at a later time
-Jerry O'Connell - Fat kid from Stand By Me as Supes?
-Jason Behr - Could have done it, but don't know much about the guy
-Jared Padalecki - If it happened, then we would have never gotten anymore "Supernatural"
-Hayden Christenson - No
-Jim Caviezel - Looks like Supes, but was deemed too famous at the time for playing Jesus
-Will Smith - Didn't want to mess with white heroes again, wise choice Will, wise choice
-Nicolas Cage - Was to play the part in Tim Burton's movie that never happened, would have been interesting to see.
