Outwardly, he even looks like Henry Cavill.
James Gunn considers model and actor Pearson Fode to play the new Superman. He is best known for his role in The Bold and the Beautiful.
How writes Variety, the 31-year-old actor sent the director a footage that included footage from his childhood living on a farm in a small town, much like Clark Kent's character in his youth. Gann liked what he saw, sources said. However, he has not yet made any decisions on the cast, they added.
It has to be someone who has kindness and compassion like Superman and someone you want to hug. We have some really great options [for the role] that I'm very happy with.
