Or Jor El. o0

[bonoferox]

Awesome news :)

[superhippie2000]

Or Jor El. o0
ya that would be cool. and doesnt seem like a cameo either but doesnt seem full time just a multi episode arc so maybe casey and sarah arent going to be completely gone. maybe he and casey will be enemies or something where they were rivals in FBI school or something. would be cool seeing the 2 supermans going at it.

so if brandon routh is able to do tv now and is only on chuck for one season it would be cool if he could be in smallville season 10 if there is a 10 as jor el. of course they would have to age him up a bit and give him a british accent.

I don't watch Chuck, but BR's a good bloke. I might try it just to see him

[FlashInSV]

Really? That's so cool. I didn't like Superman Returns, but I have nothing against BR (not yet anyway, LOL) Awww. Now I miss Chuck.

I don't mean to be pushy, but Chuck is one hell of a show. You should check it out sometime, for more than BR.

but he was a good superman and looked the part. maybe the sequal will have a better plotline. we just need brainiac or doomsday or a mega villian for a mega fight. fights with lex are a bit lame since superman cant exactly zap lex with heat vision.

ok back on topic lol i agree seriously check out the first 2 seasons of chuck they are really good. you probably dont need to watch to get the 3rd season just cause the 3rd seems to be an upgraded version of the first season. im just a bit worried about how it ended last season if it will be the same feel to the show.

I've never seen this show before but I will now. Have heard very good things about it. I Can't wait!


Here is another article on it,


'Chuck': Brandon Routh's role is top-secret

Two-plus seasons of writing a show about spies has rubbed off on "Chuck" co-creator Chris Fedak. He's very good at keeping secrets.

For instance, it was next to impossible to get Fedak to give up details about what "Superman Returns" star Brandon Routh will be doing in his guest role on "Chuck" this season. We know he's playing a character named Daniel Shaw in multiple episodes, beginning with the season's fourth show, and that he'll be part of Chuck's (Zachary Levi) spy world, but other than that? Not much -- not even the exact number of episodes Routh will do.

"You won't get it out of me," Fedak says.

Fedak did say, though, that Shaw will be a key to this season's spy arc. "This year the evil organization Chuck and our gang are battling is called The Ring," he says, "and Shaw is an expert on The Ring."

And how might his presence affect the dynamic between Chuck, Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) and Casey (Adam Baldwin)? "If it's OK with you, I want to kind of stay a little murky," Fedak says. "I'm a little hesitant to say much more about the Shaw character. We've got some really cool surprises, and I don't want to show my hand too much."

Fedak was more willing to talk about why he's happy to have Routh on "Chuck," and it's not just because the actor played Superman. (Although Fedak admits that "I was a little bit giddy when I finally met him.")

"What's exciting about it is that Brandon not only offers a great kind of leading-man, hero type of character, but he's also super funny," Fedak says. "It's really important to the 'Chuck' show that he has comic chops."

"Chuck" is filming its second episode now, Fedak says, so Routh should be starting work on the show in the next couple of weeks. The show is scheduled to return to NBC in March.

Cannot. Wait.

(Aside from the potential -pains me to even say it- love triangle. *sighs heavily* Why couldn't he have just been a nice spy who wants to help Chuck be a better one?)

Love Brandon Routh!

[Kryptonian250]

Actually I think its a Love trapezoid meaning Carina might hook up with Shaw. After its all over.

Bring back Bilson. That's ALL I'm saying.

[FlashInSV]

Bring back Bilson. That's ALL I'm saying.

I actually agree. I love Rachel Bilson. And I loved Lou. :D

I'm actually so in love with bilson, my girlfriend accepts her as the other woman in our relationship. :D

[almighty15]

Never heard of him who is he?

Really? Please tell me you aren't trolling.

[RichardMarx]

That's so cool. I met Brandon and Zachary back in July when they were playing at the Staples Center for the Lakers 3 on 3 tournament. They were both really nice guys.

yeah, they both seem like really cool and nice guys. Love them both. I still can't believe that Brandon will be in the show along side Zach. :D My tv screen is going to explode from the awesome. :cool:

That's cool. Can't wait to see him and KK on Chuck. I hope he would consider doing a cameo on Smallville. It's always cool to see people in the Superman Universe make guest spots on the show.

[Kryptonian250]

Yep he needs to go to Smallville as maybe a Kryptonian or a Supervillain.
