David Boreanaz reportedly tests for Superman

Clint in Hollywood : Angel in tights?

Posted on Fri, 10-Sep-2004

The last few weeks there’s been a rumour floating about David Boreanaz doing something with a ’Four’ in the title. Everyone assumed he was talking about ’Jurassic Park 4’. Not So.

The role Boreanaz was actually referring to was "The Fantastic Four". Apparently the "Angel" star came close to snagging the role of Ben Grimm/The Thing in the film, but Michael Chiklis was the winner at the end of the day.

All is not lost for Buffy’s beau. He’s just tested for "Superman" and word is, Bryan Singer liked him. Whether he likes him enough to headline the pricey blockbuster is yet to be determined, but Singer did take to the former WB fave.

Though he is quite known in Jossverse as TV’s "Angel", Boreanaz is still a relative unknown, with next to no successful movie credits to his name. Might this work in his favour?

    What kind of incredible lie is this? The "four" rumour just started a few weeks ago while Chiklis has been Ben for months now. As for Superman, I think they made it official that Jim Caviezel had been cast a few days ago. Who the heck wrote this?

    Its true. I just read an interview with David Boreanaz in a new magazine called IN TOUCH and he talks about fantastic four, saying he was second choice and that he tested for Superman ’last week’. He also mentions the Buffy telemovie thing, saying it would have to be something bigger and better.

    Anyway, seems its true, Boreanaz has tested!!!!!! SUPER ANGEL!!!
