Superman IS Jason Bourne – The Cold Light of Day One-Sheet

Before Chris Nolan and Zack Snyder came calling, Immortals and The Cold Light of Day were the biggest starring roles available to Henry Cavill. So he said "Yes." Dude's gotta eat, yo.
Coming Soon has the one-sheet for The Cold Light of Day co-starring Bruce Willis and Sigourney Weaver. This appears to be aping on the Jason Bourne trilogy akin to Immortals' approach to 300.
Reservations of Cavill's weak acting abilities notwithstanding, he'll turn out fine as the new Superman in The Man of Steel. I'm just not going to hold these against him. Both will be a distant memory by the time Kal-El and his dorky alter-ego return to the multiplex come June 2013.

Meh, if Bale survived the trilogy of flops (Reign of Fire, Equilibrium, Laurel Canyon) in that brutal 2002 year and move onto Batman Begins, I think Cavill can live these down as well. As far acting goes..I dunno about what anyone else is saying but I thought he was great in The Tudors. The only thing I saw him in film wise was in 'Counte of Monte Cristo' when he was a kid. Hopefully he can bring that confident swagger he displayed in the Tudors to Man of Steel.
