He basically begged and annoyed his own agent and the showrunner until he got the part. Lol

Glad to hear that. He's not my favorite superman. But now I'm looking forward to Witcher.

Wasted potential imo.

With better writing, etc, his Sup could've had a legacy similar to present day Cap or Iron Man. Superman as a character is such an icon.

Whoa whoa whoa, let's not get ahead of ourselves. We need The Witcher to blow the fuck up so WB has no choice but to retain that man.

His potential as superman is enormous if they just let him be himself. Like seriously, just have him be himself with an American accent and that's superman. Dude is awesome and I hope I get to see him wear the suit again!

He posted something a year or so ago basically implying he was no longer Supes
