Brandon Routh has an infamous internet tale of being cast as Superman for Bryan singer’s film Superman Returns shortly followed by petitioning and almost insistence that he wanted to return to the character. Obviously, that didn’t work out so I’ve been curious what this guy might do to avoid falling into obscurity as I haven’t seen him star in something that caught my interest since. Today, we get a trailer for Dylan Dog starring Routhe to find out.

I’m actually kind of intrigued by what I’m seeing. The monsters seem like something out of Guillermo Del Toro’s sketchbook but I don’t mind that. I’m not familiar with this Dylan Dog character but he reminds me of an amalgamation of Hellboy and Constantine, with the looks of a young Tom Cruise. I’ll put it on the radar, but I’m not fully sold. Is anyone else looking forward to this one?
