As production ramps up, DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Pictures have released the first look at Brandon Routh as an aged Superman in Crisis on Infinite Earths! Inspired by the Kingdom Come version of the hero (complete with grey hair!), this version will seemingly have no connection to Routh’s appearance as Superman in 2005’s Superman Returns, though that could perhaps change.
