Though Henry Cavill ultimately scored the opportunity to reprise his role as the Man of Steel, a host of other actors auditioned for the latest chance at Superman.
While appearing on Josh Horowit’z Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, Matt Bomer revealed he was one of those in the running for Dawn of Justice.
The 37-year-old Magic Mike XXL star said, “I had screen tested with Amy Adams in the tights.’
Bomer added, “thankfully [Brett Ratner] chose me for the project.”
However, as the casting process continued for Batman v Superman, Bomer stated things slowly but surely fell apart.
Though he did not elaborate on why, he said, “I have zero regrets about that.”
