DC Universe is looking for a new Superman since Henry Cavill is out, and it looks like Jack Black is throwing his cape into the game!
I hope that James Gunn considers him because he would be perfect. Who says Clark Kent has to be tall, dark, and handsome? Have you ever seen a newspaper photographer? They look more like Black than Christopher Reeve or Tom Welling.
After all, the superhero is faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. So why does he need to be muscular? Let’s change things up and give the role to Black! Plus, it will provide DC with the humor they have been lacking for decades.
Jack Black was a contestant on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune this week, and he seemed to have an easy puzzle to solve. However, it was hard for him.
That is because he guessed “Deluxe full-time leg lamp.” But it was actually “Deluxe full-size leg lamp” from A Christmas Story. A movie, I am assuming he didn’t see it. And probably never will after this.
Anyways that is neither here nor there. It was all about how he reacted when he got the answer wrong. In Jack Black fashion, he bent down and hid behind the podium, so Pat Sajak had to go over to check on him. The actor was OK but embarrassed.
My takeaway from this is that Black should host a game show geared at kids. He would be great!
In 2006, Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet swapped homes for a vacation and found love in the movie The Holiday. At least, I think that is how it ended. I don’t remember because the film was boring and forgettable.
Or so I thought because The Sun is reporting that the recently unretired Diaz, Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black are all returning to do a sequel, which is expected to start filming next year.
Will holiday with The Holiday 2? Or do you think the movie needs a permanent vacation?
UPDATE: Nancy Meyers, who wrote and directed the original film, denies that there is a sequel in the works. She wrote, “So many DM’s about this – sorry but it’s not true. ❤️”
But then, the article didn’t mention that she was attached to the movie. So maybe the studio is working around her?
