He might still fit because you would think clark Kent’s humour would be very dry and mostly rely on timing. The contrast would be great having the silliness come from the CIA characters who could be extremely animated and frustrated. I can only imagine the scenes about the CIA agents trying to explain to their boss why they keep failing

Yeah he could be a good straight man.

That would be the best way for it to work. He barely notices these guys, and they keep failing…. Like Michael Palin in “A Fish called Wanda”

Not a bad idea actually

23 Jump Street

It absolutely would work.

Yeah Jim Carrey would be a CIA agent here not Clark Kent.

Directed by the Coen Brothers

[–] DarthBueller@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Directed by Wes Anderson, with Jason Schwartzman playing Superman/Clark Kent, Saoirse Ronan as Lois Lane, Bill Murray playing Perry White, and Owen Wilson as Luthor. CIA boss played by Jeff Goldblum, vice-President of the USA played by Anjelica Huston, and President not seen on-screen but voice acted by Ira Glass.

What the hell I want this now

[–] DarthBueller@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

chatGPT suggested Saoirse Ronan as a new straight-lady now that Anjelica Huston is old. The rest is me, and I agree, it would be awesome.
