^ LINK has pictures of the 6 leading people.

Off of the news this week that director Zack Snyder has officially taken the reigns of the new Superman movie — produced by Christopher Nolan and penned by David S. Goyer — I looked at the pros and cons of ten actors who could potentially don the big red S. A few of these suggestions you really liked; thanks to Smallville, I figured there’d be a lot of Tom Welling fans out there, but I had no idea that Superman Returns‘ Brandon Routh had such a committed following. Some of my ideas you weren’t so keen on; “I love Nathan Fillion,” wrote Joshua in the comments, “but Captain Mal is just not Supes.” And y’all had several suggestions of your own; I was especially tickled by the unconventional idea of Joseph Gordon-Levitt (though he may have a leg up given how vocally impressed Nolan was with his work in Inception), and I’m kicking myself for not thinking of White Collar‘s impossibly pretty Matt Bomer.

So let’s put it to a vote! The following six actors stood out as your top choices for the man best suited to fly faster than a speeding bullet (or be shot in front of a green-screen and then later made to look in post like he’s flying faster than a speeding bullet): Bomer, The Tudors‘ Henry Cavill, Gordon-Levitt, Mad Men‘s Jon Hamm, Routh, and Welling. Vote for your favorite below, and then defend your choice in the comments. May the best man (of steel) win!

-----------------------------------------------------------------
So here are the choices again [with results after I voted] click the link if you want to see the guy's pictures if you draw a blank: Matt Bomer 14.58%

Henry Cavill 6.15%

Joseph Gordon-Levitt 2.91%

Jon Hamm 14.08%

Brandon Routh 13.75%

Tom Welling 48.54%

I will add other as a choice but just say who you want and why.

Thanks for voting and looking!

Tom Welling

i been stuck with him as Clark Kent for far too long. Time for the big pay off. Put him in the red & blues.

Tom Welling, he's doing great on Smallville. I think he could pull it off in a movie too.

Wow that was a lot of voters fast.

Thanks.

I wouldn't mind Matt or Tom.

And now that Kevin says it I do like Jason Ritter.

Whoever gets it I hope it pays off more than it did last time.

That was a bust!

Brandon Routh is so fucking beautiful but I voted other because I'm tired of Superman remakes.

LMAO I THOUGHT OF JOHN CENA TOO.
