Out-of-work soap actor Pierson Fodé is begging to be the new Superman

He’s got my vote! ACTION

He’s very good looking in OP’s pic. Thank you, OP, for starting the thread.

R1 can he ACT?

Superman isn't King Lear, r3.

R3, when has that ever been a qualification to play Superman?

R4 in modern superhero movies (especially DC) you need to be able to act. It isn’t 1989 anymore.

R6, as OP wrote “lol”

LoL! :)

The article is by Mark Malkin. Most likely he wants to fuck the guy, but yes this has PR piece all over it.

1. Pierson Fodé is incredibly beautiful and not untalented

2. He is fucking crazy. We’ve had some threads about his bizarre social media behavior.

He was originally cast in the pilot for Glamorous as the gay son of the cosmetic tycoon at the center of the show. When the show was retooled and recast, he was replaced with Zane Phillips. It was likely due to the increasing push to give queer roles to out actors. (Fodé is straight.)

He’s extremely similar looking to Armie Hammer and possibly even a stronger actor.

Hollywood could have just given him Armie’s career.

[quote] Fodé is straight

If any comment ever deserved the "Sure, Jan" meme, this one is it.

He's a big boy.

R8 whenever the Superman role is open, a media fag will attempt to get some guy he wants to fuck into consideration for the role.

For Man of Steel, it was EW’s Jess Cagle and Joe Manganiello.

He's hot

He had some sort of brain injury or trauma.....

Another excellent Superman actor

Fode's is straight.

to the bathhouse.

We think she’s fabulous!

Oh my!

What does Fode possess?

r18 what is that from?

R21, it’s from Animal Kingdom.

and that must be Jake Weary topping him

Well he sure is a purdy little thing!

Thread from last December

He had posted a video mimicking those Master Class ads where he was offering to shares his acting secrets (video since removed)

R13 Joe Manganiello would be the biggest miscast for Superman ever.

R26, where would he ever find the time in his busy schedule to be Superman?

Assuming he had to fuck him, PF at least got his money’s worth with that puff piece.

Superman didn’t look like a fucking Greek or Italian man. He was a WASP. All-American looking. Joe Manganiello looks what he is.

r26 he ended up with the Deathstroke cameo in Justice League. It went nowhere.

Is he another Brit or Aussie? Would be nice to have an American Superman.

[quote] Joe Manganiello looks what he is.

A partially black man descended of slaves.

Oops. I clicked on Post too soon. Here’s the link:

Most real Italians have a little link to black people. It’s very common.

R33 Joe's genealogy story is kind of fascinating.

Pierson Dane Fodé (born November 6, 1991 in Moses Lake, Washington) is an American actor, Internet personality, and model known for his roles as Brooks on Disney Channel's Jessie and Ely in the 2015 romantic comedy film Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List.

He has two older brothers, Preston and Payton, and a younger sister, Pharron.

^^ His photo in Wiki looks much different than the OP photo.

Pierson has been dating actress Saxon Sharbino since 2020.

The Manganiello “schedule” meme was the result of HBO refusing to let him test for Man of Steel. To test for a big role like this they essentially have to create the contract as if you got the role, that way you can’t renegotiate your fee if you are chosen. That also includes blocking out dates to be available to shoot the movie and HBO didn’t want to change their plans for the upcoming season of True Blood.

Manganiello appeared certain that he was a top contender for the role because Thomas Tull at Legendary was an executive producer as well as part owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers, for which Manganiello was a prominent booster. Thomas Tull was basically a glorified checkwriter and would not have been able to influence such an important casting decision like this. The Superman casting came down to whomever Christopher Nolan wanted and he chose Henry Cavill.

Oddly enough, Cavill, Manganiello and the nefarious “schedule” cross paths several years later when Zack Snyder was casting Justice League. Zack Snyder wanted Joe Manganiello for Deathstroke. However, Manganiello had already signed a contract to star in the History series “Six”. Manganiello was replaced on Six due to “medical issues.” This rendered him available to shoot the two planned Justice League movies back to back.

And then “Batman V Superman” premiered to the worst reviews ever and the second Justice League movie was cancelled. Deathstroke was only going to be a prominent character in the second movie where the character are stuck in an alternate reality ruled by Darkseid. He would have been acting alongside Affleck and Jared Leto and it would have been the most significant movie role in Manganiello’s career.

Ah, irony.

Cavil was cast by Snyder, who had a hard on for him after Immortals which was VERY much like his film style. His character was a sweet gentle soul who loved his momma but had immense power. Rumor has it Synder wanted Cavil to be his Superman off camera too. He had heard he was hung big and Zack is a short muscle daddy. (Yes I know he is married with kids, one who died but...you know rumors).

R34 many Italians have genetic links to North Africans due to cross-pollination throughout the Mediterranean world dating back to ancient times.

Manganiello’s DNA indicated it was Sub-Saharan. Most likely they were even able to determine what region of African dominated it and it would have been from the Slave Coasts like mine.

OP photo -super hot

R15 Guys with brain injuries are the best fucks.

That deep V neck won't get him far.

Find me the nearest casting couch!

Nice but face looks different in every photo. He's not exactly taking on the Lon Chaney roles so he should just stick with one look.

I’m sure Zack Snyder agreed with Cavill’s casting but it was absolutely Christopher Nolan’s choice. I know this because Warner Bros. was TERRIFIED because of what happened during Flyby. After Deadline posted the casting announcement, they went back and modified the headline to add the word “Macho.” Warner Bros. would have been able to overrule Zack Snyder, whose last film for them, Watchmen, flopped. No one at Warner Bros., at that era of studio politics, was going to overrule Christopher Nolan.

Additionally, the runner up for Man of Steele was Matthew Goode, who had played Ozymandis in Snyder’s Watchmen. It’s much more likely Snyder would have chosen him of the decision had been his alone.

Finally, on a tangent, after Snyder had cast Ben Affleck as Batman for BVS, Christopher Nolan, who was not involved in the sequels, actually spoke to the press and said he had wanted Wes Bentley for the role. This NEVER happens in Hollywood. No creative ever second guesses another creative’s casting choice in public. But no one is going to tell Christopher Nolan what to do.

R46 Those shorts are nice. Package looks great and I can practically read what's on his iPhone.

R47, what happened on Flyby?

[quote] Guys with brain injuries are the best fucks.

Dat’s da suck job!

R49 The studio refused to accept director Brett Ratner’s insistence of casting Guiding Light actor Matthew Bomer over their choice of Brendan Fraser and Ratner was fired.

When that happened, people in Hollywood started gossiping, because this was such a big project collapse. And unfortunately, the rumor began that Warner Bros. refused to hire Matt Bomer because they found out he was gay.

Now, there are several problems with this line of logic. Matthew Bomer was more or less an unknown, he was quietly gay in his personal life but was still professionally closeted. He took girls to awards shows for dates. If Matthew Bomer was selected for the role, Warner Bros. would have simply bearded him up as Hollywood has done to gay actors since the beginning of the star system. But, that is the direction the gossip went. The story was so notable that either Liz Smith or Cindy Adams actually repeated it in print and everybody panicked.

Ironically, Bomer and Fraser would cross paths years later on a completely different DC project, Doom Patrol.

Actually, it was Jackie Collins. But that’s how prominent the rumor was, she’s not a gossip columnist but she knows it.

If he’s still unemployed I have $20 I can give him for………

His nose isn't great. He looks like a douche bag in a lot of photos.

fucken garjus

Thank you, R51.

The Bomer story gets even more interesting because after the Jackie Collins story hit, Brett Ratner, obviously speaking thru intermediaries (which may have included Bomer’s own husband Simon Halls who was his publicist) panicked that he’d get branded a homophobe and put out this bit of virtue signaling:

[quote]"Matt was Brett's Superman," the source says. "He would never have not cast Matt because he's gay. Brett knew Matt was gay. They're good friends. Matt not being Superman had nothing to do with his sexuality. It was because the director changed."

So this confirms it was known that Matt Bomer was gay by the people involved in the casting process.

Re Blacks genes in Italian genes

There were actually quite a few black Africans in the European ancient world. But these Africans were from Nubia or Ethiopia and came up the Nile River to Alexandria and then out across the Mediterranean.

Any African DNA from the West African Bight is due to New World Slavery as that is the region in Africa which populated the plantations of the Americas.

Joe Mangianelli, a Nubian prize taken on one of your raids of conquest no doubt.

^ LOL at her wig

Uhura's, I mean.

I meant to write “Mangianello” at R59.

Jesus Christ we know!

Never a fan. He isn't a great actor. I also don't believe WB will be stupid enough to hire another unknown FEM soap actor after the disaster of casting soap actor Brandon Routh.

Christopher Reeve was an unknown soap actor before Superman.

Being a shirtless attention whore doesn't qualify you to be superman. Sorry.

Also Brandon Routh’s casting was not a disaster. He was fine in the role. It was simply a terrible film.

Similar situation to everyone kvetching about Batfleck and then it turned out he was a fantastic Batman, it was merely a horrible movie.

DC seems incapable of making good super-hero movies save for Wonder Woman.

Apparently any Superman must have dark hair, blue eyes, a big cock, and a comfy space in the closet.

Routh has dark brown eyes.

[quote] Superman didn’t look like a fucking Greek or Italian man. He was a WASP. All-American looking. Joe Manganiello looks what he is.

You know, I'm not one to use the "R" word, but if I did...

Romani?

r47 Nolan washed his hands of Superman. He only retained some control because it was supposed to exist in the Dark Knight universe. It was clear Snyder had a different vision and Nolan had to let go.

He's beautiful

No, Man of Steel exists because Nolan wanted to make a Superman movie from his original idea. He gave Warner Bros. his outline, they creamed their pants, and they greenlit it. Zack Snyder was hired as a journeyman. I believe the other contender was Darren Aronofsky but WB needed someone who could make the film quickly because they were facing a lawsuit from the Seigel/Shuster heirs which could have seen them lose the Superman rights. Chris Nolan gave Zack Snyder creative control to interpret his, Nolan’s, story. Warner Bros. wanted a film to look and feel like a Nolan film because Nolan was the golden goose. Even the font of the Man of Steel logo is Nolan’s favorite Franklin Gothic Bold.

Snyder got full creative control with the sequel, which a plan did not produce, and once people saw Batman V Superman, the biggest criticism out of the gate was that Zack Snyder, left to his own devices, did not seem to understand or even like Superman. It’s a fundamentally different characterization than the one in the first movie.

He is very beautiful. He looks a little lime Henry Cavill, but prettier. He'd be great as superman just on looks.

R75 He is a Superman, wow! What a hunk! With a lil hair dye he can make it work.

Goyer wrote the script Nolan pitched it based on his clout with Dark Knight. Nolan wanted a universe where His Batman and this Superman existed. THey had to start production in 2011 to skirt the lawsuit decisions but they started development in 2008 so there was not exactly a rush. Snyder was given full control and while you can feel the Nolanverse in the first movie it is much more blockbuster action than nuanced Dark Knight. It had to be. Superman villains are not like Joker or Scarecrow or Riddler. They are big bad monsters or devious super-rich men. Luthor was essentially Bruce Wayne without the family issues.

R77 game fully ignores the fact that Nolan’s Batman didn’t even exist anymore in Nolan’s Dark Knight Universe! He retired! The crime fighting mantle was going to be picked up by Joseph Gordon Levitt’s Robin surrogate!

Just stop already, you are embarrassing yourself.

The relationships people had to superheros sort of changed. They wanted "messy" superheroes. It is hard to messy Superman up without losing the through line. It's a delicate balance because there is only so far you can take Superman, unless you do a whole story where he is affected by kryptonite. The key to playing Superman is how to remain a boy scout in a world where boy scouts no longer exist.

He is too old. The next actor is expected to make 2 movies in 5 years. At his age that leaves out a third movie. It's like James Bond. They aren't looking at 40 year olds for a reason.

He is 31 which is 2 years older than David Corenswet who has been listed in the trades as another top contender.

However, the problem I see is that if they cast around 30, they are going to be casting the same age as Henry Cavill when he started the films. Cavill was 29 in Man of Steel (his Clark Kent was 33 in the storyline, because, Zack Snyder and Jesus. Sidebar: if you want to understand Zack Snyder better, you should understand he was raised Christian Scientist.) Gunn was said he want to focus on Superman’s early years. That makes me think they are going to resurrect the Flyby timeline, which focused on Superman out of college. Matt Bomer was 24 when Ratner chose him. I would be shocked if Gunn casts over 25. Which makes the top contender, in my eyes, 25 year old Jacob Elordi.

Another sidebar: Ratner was correct in refusing to cast Brendan Fraser, because Fraser at the time was 34 and too old for the role as written in the JJ Abrams script, which means they would have had to have it significantly rewritten. In hindsight, it’s also entirely likely possible that had Fraser been hired, he would have ended up dropping out because he has admitted that an accident on “The Mummy” had left him with intense pain and he may have not been able to get into necessary physical shape for the role.

Brendan Fraser was not actually Warner Bros.’ first choice, but they were stuck with him after everyone else they wanted kept turning the film down. Josh Hartnett, also 24 at the time, was the first choice and the studio offered him a $100 million three picture deal, which would have made him among the highest paid actors in history. I’m assuming the staggered salary was 20-30-50 for the three films. To give you an idea of how insane that was, Henry Cavill earned less than one million for Man of Steel.

Nahh. Too pretty--like woman. The guy who replaced him on B&B looks more like Clark Kent. They REALLY fucked up losing Cavill. That motherfucker IS from Krypton.

R41 Joe isn’t Italian at all.

Manganiello is his adopted grandfather’s name.

His biological grandfather was biracial.

Manganiello is still Italian but less Italian than he thought. Maybe 1/8 or 1/16.

His looks are primarily derived from his Armenian great-grandmother. He is extremely Armenian-looking. Kathy Bates once asked Matt Bomer during an AHS group interview what the name was of his “big Armenian friend.”

Except I don’t know how Manganiello avoided the Armenian body hair gene. He would have looked hot too.

Doesn’t begging involve getting on your knees?

Re: Elordi or Fodé casting

I would dislike these because their heads are both round. Superman needs a chiseled rectangle head. Henry Cavill was indeed perfect. The apocryphal story was that all the Man of Steel actors tested in Christopher Reeves’s suit and when they came out on set there was laughing and razzing but when Cavill came out, everyone on set was quiet.

Girls! Girls! Superman is a blue-eyed Jew!

Well, let's see. I need to check your body because you'll be wearing a tight suit. Why don't you get naked and climb on the couch on your knees. That's right, bend over...

This kid certainly has the look in some photos, but that's the problem: since the 1970s, that's all they've done is cast on looks and sex appeal, not acting ability. There is an inner quality a Superman actor must have, and no one seemed to have that quality since George Reeves. Tyler Hoechlin is gorgeous, and goodness knows his acting is serviceable in most things, but by God, he is a wonderful Superman. I haven't felt that about the character since I was a little kid.

Superman is supposed to have people, little kids especially, look up to him as an example of the best we can all possibly be, not straight women and gay men ogling him just wanting a fuck. The actor should "sell it", believe it themselves so we believe it, but also not take it too seriously. Superman always is capable of chuckling at his own capabilities. There is a nudge-nudge, wink-wink quality to the character. It's not fucking Shakespeare. A good Superman actor understands all this. Too many actors are in the part just to sell themselves and use the role to launch themselves into stardom, only wondering if they look good, not if they put in a good performance.

Too pretty-

[quote] since the 1970s, that's all they've done is cast on looks and sex appeal, not acting ability.

See this? This is you.

Doesn’t Fodé mean “fucked” in French or sumthin?

It does now.

Wow …hot

Who replaced him on B&B?

This dude

r78 uh the Dark Knight Rises came out in 2012, Superman went into production 2011 and was in pre-prod as early as 2008. Nolan certainly did want Superman to be in the Dark Knight universe even though he could not see them together.

r87 Elordi was already cast as Atom Smasher in Black Adam.

Both Fode and Corenswet can play much younger and will be able to play much younger for sometime. Christopher Reeve was no Brando. Superman has to have a certain look and part of that look is the audience wanting to fuck Superman.

R99 you realize that James Gunn said his movie will not be connected to existing DC shared universe right? Elordi can play him.

r101 Yeah I know he is recreating the DCEU but Black Adam was just last year, so I am guessing he is not in the running, especially with the animosity between Johnson and DC.

You do realize Johnson doesn’t actually own the Black Adam characters right?

Well OP, he most definitely looks the part.

r103 Yeah I know. You do realize how hollywood works right?

Yes I do know how Hollywood works, which is why your insistence that Jacob Elordi’s supporting role in Black Adam, a movie which many people did not see, would prohibit his casting in a Superman movie set in a different universe, is bonkers.

Talking to people who know nothing about show business is like talking to children.

Thomas, the role Pierson played on B&B, was played before Pierson by this cookie sniffer (Drew Tyler Bell)....

....and then by THIS cookie sniffer (Adam Gregory).....

....and is now played by Matthew Atkinson. Who does not appear to be sniffing cookies.

I mean...Superman doesn't require anything other than a pretty face. If you're staying true to the character, he is essentially a high school quarterback with a heart of gold. He's completely VOID of personality same as Batman. The difference being a Batman actor has to be able to pull off tortured and introverted with a smidgen of sociopath.

R109 Nah, he's not a cookie sniffer and that's based on his hairstyle and facial hair. It's a MESS.

r106 okay well if you know how Hollywood works, then casting him with the Stink of Black Adam on him would be the last thing any exec would agree on. You think the average person knows Gunn is going to restart the DCEU? You obviously have no idea how things work.

R110 very, very wrong. Superman is legendary for being one of the hardest roles to cast. Tom Welling was basically “heart of gold quarterback” Superman and that portrayal was ghastly.

Superman should look like Greek deity Apollo who has come down from Olympus to help the mortals. The benign, divine grace is hard to get from most model/actors who reek of arrogant pretty boy (I include Fodé in this.) You need to cast Apollo, not Adonis or Narcissus.

The best photo ever taken of Henry Cavill as Superman was a simple snapshot taken by a visitor to the Chicago Union Station set. The goodness comes off like a Renaissance painting of Christ.

[quote] then casting him with the Stink of Black Adam on him would be the last thing any exec would agree on.

You’re even dumber than I thought you are. Jacob Elordi wasn’t even in Black Adam. That was NOAH CENTINO.

Henry Cavill had the look facially, but he got too muscly for the role. He was just too big. It took me out of the character. I'm not sure whose idea it was for him to get that big, but it was a bad choice.

That’s just how Superman looks in the comics now.

R112 Nah, YOU’RE very, very wrong. Superman has been played by some of the worst actors in the business. You know why? Because the character has no depth and is as deep as a mud puddle. He's generic and all-American (despite not being human) and THAT'S why it's so easy to cast him. ALL it takes is a pretty face and someone who can memorize lines.

He’s the most uncomplicated character in the entire DC universe and that doesn’t require the Strasberg method to convey on movie screens.

Same with Chris Evans as Captain America. Easily replaceable. The actor just needs to stand there, point, and look pretty.

This “Benign, divine grace” bullshit that you’re on is about you jacking off to Smallville and Lois and Clark episodes.

[quote] This “Benign, divine grace” bullshit that you’re on is about you jacking off to Smallville and Lois and Clark episodes.

Adventures of Superman if you please!

R116 = the fat kid from the beginning of Jurassic Park

If you have ever wondered how Joe Manganiello could get on a casting list for Superman, it’s because of people like r116.

I will say, this guy looks like younger, slightly-fairer version of Cavill, whatever that’s worth.

The photo he gave to Variety is extremely flattering. He really doesn’t look like that. He’s extremely round-headed.

Damn R121, that photo at OP is extremely flattering. He is a 6, at best, in your pic.

He’s so beautiful I bet he doesn’t even go to the bathroom.

Miss R116 Has Stated Her Boundaries!

Well he's sure going for the cornfed look here, and I'm buying it! Bail that hay, boy!~

WERQ for that role, hunty!

r113 you are 100% right I am a dumb ass.... but...it took people that long to figure out it was not Centrino lol.

I see that Black Adam made $393 Million at the Box Office. Is that a flop?

R127 because no one saw the goddamn film so we just assumed you, someone who had, knew what you were talking about

Yes.

It needed $600 global to break even.

……….

R118 Wakes up to this photo and an empty bed every morning

R118 This is a photo your nurse took of you a few days ago.

R119 NOBODY has ever wondered that. Sorry, Amos.

r129 I think we have identified the problem. These guys are interchangeable..

The bigger question is: why is Hollywood making shitty, awful movies that cost a half billion dollars to break even?

r136 Because Marvel movies have made billions and they are out of original ideas. They have looked to comics with decades of storylines already written.

And look who is pushing him as "Superman Front runner?" Yeah some gay wants in his pants or his PR knows who to push articles to.

Jesus Christ he fucked two separate media gays? He could be on the way to becoming the male Charlotte Kirk.

What type of surname is Fode’ ?

R140 it’s phone’ in origin.

R11 has a point; there's a difference between not out and straight. When Fode premiered on B&B, his bio gave info on his g.f. (I want to say Vanessa something but I could be wrong?)

I read that and thought what about packaging these guys as attainable? how many times are reporters 'scolded' for prying into private lives.

What's going to keep this guy from playing Superman are those legs; maybe if they get a huge cape that covers them up. But his legs are too small.

as for Mark the reporter want to fuck him, well, maybe. Or maybe he wants to be fucked by him. I don't see women journos or straight guy writers being held up to that standard; immediately, oh, you wrote about someone hot; you must want to fuck him.

It IS a bit of a puff piece with no substance to it. Did Variety always do stuff like that? Or are they just competing with all the other sites and bloggers.

It was Victoria; not Vanessa.

[quote] Too pretty-

He'd be a great Superman, if Superman were a fag.

[quote] Superman didn’t look like a fucking Greek or Italian man. He was a WASP. All-American looking.

First, Superman is a fictional character. Second, he is from Krypton and it is not at all clear if Krypton had Anglo-Saxons or Protestants.

I’ll give him some scenery to chew on!

[quote] [R140] it’s phone’ in origin.

A rotary phone with a pencil for dialing? Yes, it's all becoming clear to me.

R145, only in like 99% of every Superman comic.

Even me, Bizarro, not know that for sure. !

[quote] Tyler Hoechlin is gorgeous, and goodness knows his acting is serviceable in most things, but by God, he is a wonderful Superman. I haven't felt that about the character since I was a little kid.

Good to have a person of color Superman, though the last one (Dean Cain) turned out to be a MAGA idiot.

r148 that was one thing I always wondered about. If Bizarro was the complete opposite of Superman, wouldn't he prefer men if Superman was heterosexual?

This guy is such a catfish. He looks ugly in all the photos except the one in the OP. There’s a reason why all the articles are using that photo.

Sure, there's a chameleon element to Fode but he's gorgeous in many shots; very personable...I could see him getting it...despite the legs.

He looks fat.

r153 I wonder if those boots are Dior? Do you think so?

His pins rival Sam Heughan’s in terms of being disappointingly thin in comparison to his upper body.

If they’re gonna consider a soap actor for Superman, it ought to be Nicholas Chavez.

R153 No she got them at Burlington (Coat Factory).

No matter how much Chavez bulks up he will never be The Last Son of Krypton

Based purely on looks, I'm still in the David Corenswet camp although, if he got the body, I wouldn't hate Tom Brittney.

I think they should go a bit older - I vote for Daniel Crudmore

Cudmore looks right, but is too old -he's 42, older than Cavill.

Gunn's vision is to go with a much younger Superman, more like Joshua Orpin.

Gunn has already posted his shortlist for Superman:

Superman: Nicholas Hoult, David Corenswet, Tom Brittney

Lois Lane: Emma Mackey, Rachel Brosnahan, Phoebe Dynevor

Of course, this means nothing if he gets fired for the Flash debacle.

it's Cudmore and I think the sexiest thing about that guy is he doesn't post his kids' faces on social.

loved his brief run as Colossus in X-Men.

NICHOLAS HOULT?!

It would be more compelling to tell a story with an actual MAN playing Superman. Not a 20-something. Marvel has success with older actors playing key roles. The Superboy to early Superman story has been done to death. They could do the Superman red blue storyline, The warwold storyline, there is so much to draw from.

There’s a warning on his Wikipedia page:

“This article may have been created or edited in return for undisclosed payments”

He probably paid for this thread.

Find me some padding and even I could be Superman.

Brandon Routh was working as a bartender at Lucky Strikes in Hollywood.

the UPN network (this is how long ago this was) had a party there. I was at it and Brandon was super nice.

Not long after he's cast as Superman.

After Reeve and Reeves, he was my favorite.

[quote]Superman didn’t look like a fucking Greek or Italian man. He was a WASP. All-American looking. Joe Manganiello looks what he is.

Superman is a Kryptonian, you fucking moron. He's not a fucking WASP.

Superman looks like Christopher Reeve.

Why did Brandon’s career tank after his Superman debut?

Not sure, R171; he's continued to work. but he should have gotten more.

The movie wasn't great; the plane rescue sequence was phenomenal; he was a worthy successor to Reeve, I don't say that lightly.

But Lex acted like he wanted to fuck him.

That didn't help.

EXCUSE ME! MY THREAD HERE?

R171, take it for what it’s worth but I heard that Brandon Routh cost the film company a lot of money because he had a huge dick.

The story goes, and again this is more than secondhand, that they made Superman Returns and when it was shown to test audiences all they could talk about was how big his dick was in the tights. The director, who does not need to be named, was not shocked by the large bulge and no one said it was too much u til it got shown to the general public. They had to go back through the film and reshape his bulge in every scene and it cost huge money in 2006 when it it had to be done by “hand.”

Correct me if I’m wrong. The story always seems a bit wild to me.

[quote] Brandon Routh cost the film company a lot of money because he had a huge dick.

I am familiar with this excellent and handsome actor and can confirm that he has a huge dick.
