More Superman Returns News

Here's a great action shot of the new Superman (Brandon Routh). Superman Returns has finished shooting and will be released in the US on June 30, 2006. The more I see of this show the more pumped I get :)

Here's an interesting quote from an interview with Wizard magazine:
At 6-foot-4 and nearly 250 pounds, Brandon Routh never perceived himself as too small for anything.

That's why he was taken aback when public perception deemed him "too small" to fill the ample tights of Superman in the upcoming blockbuster film, "Superman Returns."

"That was always a big concern for everyone," Routh said with a laugh from the Sydney, Australia set of the movie in an exclusive interview with Wizard: The Comics Magazine. "I was never concerned about it, because I knew that I was in good hands with the people that I've been blessed to train with, and I knew from previous weightlifting experiences in high school and college that I could put on weight. I was worried that I might get too big to be human in other films beyond this. But it's been cool to see myself transform as well."
Brandon is 6-foot-4 and nearly 250 pounds??? Really? None of his pics make him look that big, in fact I was one of those who thought that he needed to put on more muscle. As a comparison here a pic of Randy Orton, a professional wrestler who's 6 foot 4 and 245 pounds.
Hmmm... they might be the same height and weight but Brandon sure looks smaller to me. What do you think?

He kinda looks "wide" to me...
