Matt Bomer for Superhero


For a long time, people have been fancasting Matt for a superhero role Superman, Batman, Gambit, Dr Strange, Green Lantern, Nightwing etc etc. I like Superheroes and what they stand for. I was a huge fan of Superman as a child and also loved Spiderman, Batman etc. The number of superheroes since has multiplied, like seriously!

The Superhero craze is getting a bit old with all these franchise movies popping up, but it'll be a shame if Matt, born with a superhero jaw and laser eyes doesn't get to embody one. It's no wonder that everytime a new superhero movie is talked about, Matt is always at the forefront of the casting talk.

Matt has said a few times that he'd like to play the Nightwing. I think he'd be brilliant as one. It'll be like playing Neal Caffrey again lol.

What superhero would you like to see Matt play?

Personally, I'd have LOVED to see him play the Superman, only because I personally love that Superhero and hate what's become of him in the current version. Matt would've made him amazing again...but alas:( Then again, as has been discussed here before, TNH probably would'nt have happened, and neither TLT or WC, so it's all good I guess!

I'd like to see him play the Green Lantern though. Gambit was another role suitable for Matt but it's gone to Channing.


Matt has earned a name as a character/method actor. It'll be interesting to see him dab a little into the purely commercial world of superheroes!

He's too good of an actor to get locked into a superhero role like the Chrises or Robert Downey etc, sequel after sequel.
Did you just throw Robert Downey Jr. under the Chrises case?? How old were you in the 80s? Three months old?
