Justice League Movie Recast: 10 Fantasy Castings
2. Karl Urban As Superman
Currently played by Henry Cavill, the Man of Steel movie was hampered by a serious battle between style and substance. As a result Cavill wasn’t given much room to go all out as Krypton’s last son.
This was also an issue made very obvious in Batman vs Superman. Not once did he smile or do any real ‘Superman’ stuff. Your Superman, and by default, your Clark Kent should be able to bounce off your Lois Lane in a fun flirty way.
Not only does Urban have range but he’s not afraid to crack a smile here and there. I know Superman isn’t the wisecracker of the team but he is supposed to have a good natured sense of humour, he’s called the Boy Scout for a reason. In the moral spectrum of the league, Batman and Superman make up the dark and the light respectively.
