Tom Welling to Appear in Batman Begins?
Source: Superhero Hype!
Tuesday, August 24, 2004

Here's one that came out of nowhere, and might be nothing, but who knows. A scooper sent us a scan of a call sheet that was apparently used for the August 15th shoot on Batman Begins in Chicago. We've cropped it to where it doesn't show the production's "personal" info, and while the info on what was shot is cool, the most interesting bit comes in the Cast list which includes a certain T. Welling as Kent...

While it doesn't says specically "Tom" (who else could it be?), could Tom - who stars as Clark Kent in The WB's Smallville - really have a cameo role in the film? Maybe this is what he was meeting with Warner Bros. about instead of the Superman movie? Is this a real Call Sheet or a fake? If it's a fake, it's one of the best fakes we've ever seen!

That's a pretty shitty "ninja" costume they got there.

 

[Matlock]

Eh, it's kinda genericky, but you never know how it'll look in the film, or in movement.

 

[Bob White]

This movie can do no wrong. Fuck Spiderman.

 

[FightyF]

Holy Crap!

What the hell!? Superman is in Batman Begins??

There's a forum I go to where this one guy has everyone completely convinced that this movie will suck... it's like a parallel universe or something.

Can you summarise the main points of how he proves he is stupid?

how is BB avoiding the "shit touch" of the WB?

That ninja photo appears to have been taken in some kind of suburban house...

Is that... normal?

I really would not want to see Superman in Batman Begins.

Well, there's no indication he does ANYTHING super.

Perhaps he's covering a Wayne Foundation Ball or something. More than likely it's just a short cameo.

[ManaByte]

Bzzzzt. Thank you try again.

Nolan is part of it, but the big thing is David Goyer's (the writer of the Blade trilogy) script and the fact that Warner didn't fuck with it at all.

Well, that would probably take too much time, but some examples:

My brother has read the script and...

Spoiler

He doesn't see any lines for Kent, so if this is true then it's just an appearance.

What the hell is Shredder doing in a Batman movie?! This will be the worst Batman movie ever.
