Superman Returns star Brandon Routh reveals why Warner Bros. chose not to pursue a sequel to the 2006 film also starring Kate Bosworth and James Marsden.
Although fans have come to love Brandon Routh in Superman Returns, the film wasn’t the roaring success it could’ve been when it first arrived in theaters back in 2006.But after reprising his Kryptonian role in Crisis On Infinite Earths, Routh explained to Geek House Show that he’s not ruling out another return just yet. He pointed out that other actors like Michael Keaton are being brought back to play roles they’ve already starred in so it’s “an absolute possibility.”
That’s always a possibility and, of course, as they’re bringing in Michael Keaton which I’m excited about and some other people from the past DC projects. I think it’s very exciting. It worked really well with Crisis on Infinite Earths and I was proud and honored to be a part of it and to reprise my Superman. So, it’s an absolute possibility, you can do anything. Everybody lives and dies all the time.”
