The latest actor in the frame for Superman is none other than Jim Caviezel. What do we all think of that?

I thought they casted it already. I was sure someone finally accepted, and it wasn't him.


Am I totally thinking of a diffrent movie here?

I dunno, maybe. Superman has had more casting speculation about it than any movie of recent times. Bryan Singer is finally signed to direct, maybe you're thinking of that? It was on imdb today that Jesus was in talks for it.

Well, why would he want to play the same character again. I mean isn't Superman supposed to be Jesus?

It's the only character he can play, Suleen. He may as well get as much mileage out of it as he can.

I thought this was going to be a post about Godspell...no seriously, who cares, he's kinda hot right? Let's see if he can make the tights look good

I don't think much of him, but I haven't seen Passion of the Christ yet.

I remember years ago reading a magazine, and there was an interview with Nicholas Cage, and it mentioned that he would be in a movie in the future playing Superman. Guess that never happened.

You will think even less of him once you see The Jesus Movie, I promise you.
