I wouldn't have a problem with it. He's an outstanding actor.

I am ready for a black super man his powers could be

Holding down a job

Taking care of his kids

Not fighting with cops and trying to kill them over stupid shite

Graduating from high school

Pulling his god damned pants up over his arse

Resisting the urge to beat his "boo" every time she upsets him

I think we're more likely to see a guy with x ray vision.

Those movies kinda sucked so a different direction is fine. That said, Henry Cavil looked the part thats for sure


I like Cavill, but not especially in that role. He was great in “The Tudors”.

That being said, you’re right. The movies sucked. “Wonder Woman” wasn’t bad, but other than that, of late, the DC movies are seriously sucking hind tit with relation to Marvel. And this coming from a guy who preferred DC Comics to Marvel as a kid.

DC is garbage save for Wonder Woman. I was shocked I liked that one.

Hollywood out of ideas. Rehashing movie characters and TV sitcoms. Sad

Wonder Woman was pretty cool. Though i couldnt concentrate on the plot because the female lead was so gorgeous. Makes my brain turn off when i look at her.

Can't have a straight actor play a gay character


This happens all the time.

I suppose their rationale is that Superman isn't real, so they can change his race, sex, etc. The same can be said of Black Panther, but you'll never see a white actor cast in the role of a character who was black in a comic, novel, etc.

We're about to get a black 007, so it was only a matter of time before they cast a black Superman.

Sad, too. The Dark Knight Trilogy (especially “The Dark Knight”, which might be the greatest superhero movie ever) was outstanding. After that, Marvel kicked their game into high gear and DC just wasn’t able to keep up.

Every single time there is an opening like this, a black actor is always floated as a replacement. Im genuinely curious why

They need to do something with the character. Superman is stale. I could see Michael B Jordan bringing something new. That he’s a minority’s doesn’t really register for me one way or the other.

And in fairness, the batman movies had Christopher Nolan and his entire cadre of amazing actors. I havent seen a bad Chris Nolan movie with Christian Bale etc.
