World of Warcraft at Ten Ton Hammer

Who would have ever imaged that Superman would be a gamer? Well not really Superman, who is of course nothing more than a comic book creation (blasphemy I know), but the latest actor to portray the superhero himself, Brandon Routh. In an exclusive interview with MTV Routh proclaims his love of gaming, and his desire to be a part of the upcoming World of Warcraft movie.

Talking to MTV in a green linen shirt that gives him "three armour", Routh declares his love of WoW, his excitement about the upcoming movie and his interest in a possible role.

When asked if he was hoping to land a part, Routh pondered, "You might get a little action, a little sword fighting, that would be a lot of fun."

Personally I feel Routh did a most excellent job portraying the Man of Steel in the latest Superman movie and would make an excellent addition to the World of Warcraft film. I enjoyed that he actually enjoys gaming, and perhaps even plays WoW himself, that has to count for something.
