While I may also disapprove of Joseph Nichol (I want to refuse to call him McG) and his casting decisions, as always I barrage of useless trivia collected off the internet to answer your question:


Who the fuck is Henry Cavill and what is McG doing directing Superman?


1. Henry Cavill
Henry William Dalgliesh Cavill Grew up in Jersey in Great Britain, a small island in between England and France. He had a almost mention-worthy role in The Count of Monte Cristo as Albert Mondego, Merced?s' Son but otherwise never really did much but still seems to be rising to success. No, he ain't no Chris Reeves.

2. What is McG doing directing Superman?
This Superman movie has had a rough time getting off the ground since it's early pre-production in the mid-90's when Nicolas Cage was attached as the title role. At one point rumours claimed that Kevin Smith had been hired to write the screenplay, and Tim Burton was also briefly attached to the project. Then in September 2002 Brett Ratner was officially named director of Superman V. While the project was under Brett Ratner's supervision, actors Josh Hartnett, Paul Walker, Matthew Bomer, Brendan Fraser, Ashton Kutcher, David Boreanaz, Ian Somerhalder, Henry Cavill and Jerry O'Connell were considered for the part of Superman and Anthony Hopkins was set to play Jor-El of Krypton. Sad news came in March 2003 when Brett Ratner left the project primarily because he and the Warner Bros. executives could not agree on who to cast as Superman. Hopkins would not work without Ratner directing. After a few months of no strong news in July 2003 McG was hired on to helm the doomed project shortly after the box office success of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.

Oh, and incase nobody remembers: Bruce Willis was also once rumoured to be playing Lex Luther.

Blam!
