Yep, Caviezel doesn't have the Superman role after all.

Apparently they have casted an unknown actor named Brandon James Routh.

Expect to hear about it in the next few days.

Maybe he'll wear contacts or they'll actually use CGI to make his eyes appear blue.

If they're going to use this guy, why not just use Tom Welling?

Tom Welling has talked about that. And the thing is that if he were to play Superman, since it's a three-movie deal, that would probably mean the end of Smallville.

However I personally think he would be great as Superman!

What they should really do is wait till Smallville ends and then make the Superman movie. They could make the movie a spin-off of the series. It would show how Clark finally becomes Superman and Lex becomes evil.

That's a great picture of Welling as Superman, but here is an even better picture of Caviezel as Superman.

And what about this.

Caviezel obviously looks better in the Superman gear!

Let's also try and remember--

-- and this is VERY important--

There is no such word as "Casted." You lose all credibility when you make up words. Just ask the President.

Apparently that was the picture released with the official press release.

This is a pic of Brandon in the Superman costume made up by someone online -

Does casting an unknown surprise anybody here ? Less money on the lead because they needed more on other *cough,cough,cough* things like the director , FX, and the deluxe version of Crafts food services...

Further nitpicking:

a) Christopher Reeve was an unknown when HE was cast in the role. (cast, CAST in the role!)

b) That suit makes Brandon look fat.
