    Make it a movie or series and I’ll watch it. Only problem Henry Cavil isn’t good in comedies

      He might still fit because you would think clark Kent’s humour would be very dry and mostly rely on timing. The contrast would be great having the silliness come from the CIA characters who could be extremely animated and frustrated. I can only imagine the scenes about the CIA agents trying to explain to their boss why they keep failing

          That would be the best way for it to work. He barely notices these guys, and they keep failing…. Like Michael Palin in “A Fish called Wanda”

          Not a bad idea actually

      The man from uncle was great as he just played a straight face man and the comedic stuff happened around him

      It might with Superman being completely oblivious that they’re trying to kill him so he’s just playing it straight. The CIA would be poisoning him and stuff and Superman would just not even notice.

      Hey now, this last season of Witcher is hilarious, once you know the background drama between the diehard fans and the greedy fucks actually pulling the levers. I don’t think I’ve seen Geralt with fewer fucks to give, and I’ve put in hours in those games (IIRC, only Skyrim tops that total). 🤣😅🥹
