Are you disappointed that Michael B. Jordan (per his own words) won't be playing Superman?
Yes- He's the best possible choice
No- he should be a relative unknown
I hate racebending, no matter which way it’s going. It’s racist to change Blade to a white or Asian man, so it’s racist to change Kal-El to a black man.

Does he look like Superman? Like just pick up a comic or movie from the last decade and you tell me if he should play Superman or not

It would be a little weird to meet seeing Killmonger in the cape. I didn't know who Cavil or the Reeves' were before they were Superman, so it worked for me.

I'm not an absolutist about and I can be won over, but I prefer him 2 look like he does in the comics if possible. I'm it's a little hyperbolic to say that Superman's race is a major part of his character, but would still be a little weird, like if they completely changed his costume 2 somethingelse

If they made Superman blond(without a wig or dying his hair) I'd be saying the same thing, a case for can be made for an actor who really nails the character but looks different, but you shouldn't start from the place of trying to make him look different.
I couldn't press no. A Black clark kent is a no in my book. they have black supermen in the comics. clark isn't one of them. If they made michael into val zod FUCK YES
ReplyThis would have been really cool to see. I hope they find someone that holds up to his caliber.
Replyhonestly to me the whole reason we're exploring this real-estate w/ superman is b/c the buzz about what if michael b jordan played superman.to hear he;s off the table kinda makes it all for nothing in a way.
ReplyHe is fantastic actor and even with a weak script would probably blow Cavill out of the water
