Meet Henry Cavill – The New Superman!

Posted: 30 Jan 2011 07:07 PM PST

Henry Cavill - The Tudors

With the official announcement earlier today that Zack Snyder and his team at Warner Brothers have chosen actor Henry Cavill as the lead in their Superman reboot (read Man Of Steel Picked For Zack Snyder's 'Superman' Reboot), it's time we get acquainted with the actor that will be The Man of Steel.

According to Heatvision, the 27-year-old actor beat out Watchmen's Matthew Goode for the Superman role. He also reportedly won out against White Collar's Matthew Bomer, Social Network's Armie Hammer, True Blood's Joe Manganiello, and The Rite's Colin O'Donaghue.

Cavill doesn't have a very lengthy resume, appearing in his first feature role in 2001 and the following year in The Count of Monte Cristo as Albert Mondego. His later films were Tristan + Isolde, the horror-thriller Blood Creek, and a small role in Stardust. He's best known for his work in the HBO series The Tudors as Charles Brandon. It's probably this role, along with his screen test, that garnered him the coveted role of Superman [...]

Man Of Steel Picked For Zack Snyder’s ‘Superman’ Reboot

Posted: 30 Jan 2011 11:08 AM PST



The Man of Steel has been found for the upcoming Zack Snyder, Christopher Nolan, and David Goyer-headed Superman reboot, and the Earth's mightiest protector is none other than Henry Cavill (Stardust, The Tudors).

Though the British actor has been heavily rumored for the role for quite some time, the confirmation comes as a surprise to a lot of fans, mainly because of his physicality and his lack of American blood. I, for one, believe that if the actor is the best for the role, then that is all that matters.

Director Zack Snyder doesn't share these fans' fears, as he gave his thoughts in the official announcement from Warner Brothers [...]

How One Video Game Allows Disabled Man To Be The Professional Athlete He Dreams Of Being

Posted: 30 Jan 2011 08:55 AM PST



Usually when you're hearing a story involving video games, it's someone blaming them for crimes and senseless violence or complaining that their kids shouldn't be playing such filth (instead of actually trying to be a parent and refusing to give them access to the more mature titles, of course).

Put all of that out of your mind; today we have a wonderful story about video games that will warm your heart and make you smile.

25-year-old Hans Smith is a baseball and St. Louis Cardinals super-fan. He also suffers from cerebral palsy. But instead of letting that keep him from doing the things he loves and giving up on life, he's making the best of it and finding ways to thrive even with the restrictions he battles every day of his life.

Smith knows he can never even throw a baseball, let alone be a professional ballplayer like he would love to do, which is why he fell in love with baseball video games. [...]
