  • I hope he's pumping a lot of iron between this photo and filming. Superman's traditionally a beefy sort. This guy's more Elastic Man's size. REALLY hope he can act.

  • The actor looks promising for the part, but the suit looks kinda....blocky. It doesn't look very defined or help trim him out. Hopefully it's just a photo that isn't doing him justice and the final product will be gold.

  • Why do you keep deleting any comments that are negative with respect to Tyler Hoechlin as Superman Craig???

    • I haven't seen your comments yet. Actually just now going through approving new comments right now... a few days after the fact. Been busy. Sorry! As long as they're appropriate they're going up!

    • Just saw it. It's posted now. This site has spam protections so when new commenters come in, they have to be moderated/approved first. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
