Routh To Reprise Man of Steel Role in Sequel

Brandon Routh has committed to the “Superman Returns” sequel, that was announced on October 30th by Warner Bros. and director Bryan Singer.

In a recent interview Routh indicated that he would need to buff-up again soon because, as he put it, “Bryan said…..they were going to add some more fighting elements and stuff like that…. might be kind of interesting to throw some punches or throw something, I don’t know, a little more active.”

It will require Routh to hit the gym to get down to his proper fighting weight before shooting on the untitled sequel begins. “I think I’ve got a while, “reported Routh. We probably won’t start for another at least six months. They’ve got to get things written so I’m still in the gym. I still work out a little bit but certainly not as much as I had been.”
