Figured Out: The Superman Reboot
By TheMess1428 20 Comments
So this is the premiere of my new blog series called FIGURED OUT. This is where I figure things out for you guys. (Not that you can't do it yourself.) I honestly don't know how often this is going to come out but this seemed like the perfect starter.
- Christopher Nolan is the Godfather of the movie.
- Deborah Snyder and Emma Thomas are also producing.
- The Script is being written by Christopher Nolan, Jonathan Nolan, and David S. Goyer.
- Zack Snyder is directing.
- They're rebooting the entire series.
- Brandon Routh is not the star.
But here is where everyone is confused. Who is playing Superman and other characters, and who is the villain?
Sara Lima reported Christopher Nolan announcing how his casting will go here. And if you missed it, he said that he wanted an all-star cast full of Hollywood's biggest stars. Now as for the villains, everyone is tired of Lex Luthor and people are begging for Darkseid or Doomsday. Honestly, you cannot put Darkseid or Doomsday in the beginning of Superman's story. And you seriously can't start off Superman's story without Lex Luthor. We had the rumor that Zod was the villain but that was just a rumor.
Here is what I believe everyone missed. I remember reading an article posted on this site by either G-Man or Babs, stating that Christopher Nolan announced that the villains in the movie were going to be Lex Luthor and Brainiac. I went to search for it so that you call could see my source but as I was searching, I found nothing. Either it was deleted or I was on crack. (And I don't do drugs... Except that time I overdosed on caffeine through tons of Dr. Pepper.) I'm still pretty sure that what I read was true.
So maybe I don't have it all figured out. But we're pretty close so far. And now that we've gone through all that, I ask you to watch this video I came across on YouTube where Tom Welling is in a Superman movie with a bunch of epic villains.
