I'd rather see him vie for Chuck's affections. They'd make a SUPER couple!

Another superspy who will be Chuck's "rival in his affections for Sarah." I guess they were sick of both Matthew Bomer and Jonathan Cake in that role.

The stiff from the worst Superman movie ever made is coming to Chuck? Hopefully it means he'll be to busy to make the next one.

poor Routh, Brian Singer ended his acting career with that pile of steaming shite he called "Superman Returns" a few years back. Best of luck though.

Scifire: uhm, I totally agree with you. I kept wanting to read him as Sarah's rival for Chuck. I think it'd be a really great twist.
