Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher, the actor who portrayed the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in the 2013 controversial (in terms of historical accuracy) biographical flick Jobs, was once considered for the role of Superman. It was Ratner’s cancelled venture for which he auditioned wearing the superhero’s costume as well as that of his alter-ego. He read lines with Keri Russell – the actress who was reading the lines of Lois Lane.

In an interview with MTV News, the actor claimed that he ‘didn’t feel right’ as he looked ‘funny’ like ‘a rail with fake muscles’. Isn’t that cool that he didn’t finally play the role? We think it is!

Josh Hartnett

Josh Harnett was definitely a heartthrob in his late teen years and early twenties. And he was so much in style that he was approached for three of the most popular superhero roles – Batman, Spider-Man and Superman. The actor talked about it in a 2014 interview with Details. Here’s what he said:

“Spider-Man was something we talked about. Batman was another one. But I somehow knew those roles had potential to define me, and I didn’t want that. I didn’t want to be labeled as Superman for the rest of my career. I was maybe 22, but I saw the danger.”

Sorry if it sounds offensive but we don’t consider as any of the three superheroes!

One of the two actors on the next page didn’t play Superman because he didn’t want to mess with WHITE PEOPLE’S HEROES!
