Interesting Quote: Joe Manganiello

"At the end of the day they wanted me to screen test and they actually asked for my measurements for the suit and everything...Their shoot date switched and it would have taken up 11 weeks out of my True Blood ' schedule. At the end of the day, we couldn't get the schedule to work so that I could go off and screen test. So, regrettably, I never go to screen test, I never got to put the suit on."

Is Joe Manganiello a top choice for Superman?

Watch Sex with cheese, Joe Manganiello talk about the "possibility" of being Kal-El.


More reports are also supporting this rumor. So far, he is the only person talked about for the role. Could he be the next Man of Steel? I'll keep y'all posted.
