Brandon Routh returns to the DC Universe

                                                                                        Hey guys,
Superman Returns was definately not a great movie, but I still thought that Brandon Routh was a great Clark Kent and a really good Superman. At least he looked the part but let's face it the script didn't allow him to do more than that. After many years where he hasn't done much in Hollywood he will be making his comeback to a DC Comics based show: Arrow. Don't panic though, he's not goona reprise the role of the Last Son of Krypton but he'll have a new role. He'll play Atom (not to be confused with Captain Atom). He has the ability to shrink in size. Routh will be portraying the second incarnation of the DC character the one of the Silver Age named Ray Palmer who's a physics professor. Ray Palmer/Atom is also a Member of the JLA. Needless to say that I'm very excited about the return of Brandon to this Universe, I've always like him and even though his Superman movie wasn't great, you can find lots of videos on youtube of him talking about being the Man of Steel and he always seemed to be extremely interested in this comic book world. So my excitement for this casting has to do mainly with the enthusiasm and passion that Routh has showed for this genre.
And who knows maybe we'll get to see Routh standing beside Henry Cavill who plays Superman if recent rumors are indeed true. I truly hope so!
