Life Is Hot in Brandon Routh Town
Fri, May 8, 2009 
While the status of another Superman movie is on hold, the actor who plays him, Brandon Routh, is having quite the week.
Earlier in the week, pictures and information from his forthcoming starring role, "Dead of Night," were released following the set visits of several web bloggers.
And now, pictures have come out for another movie he is involved in called "Life Is Hot In Cracktown."
Based on the 1993 novel of the same name by Buddy Giovinazzo, "Life Is Hot In Cracktown" tells various stories of how crack cocaine has infiltrated the inner-city streets.
In the movie, Routh will play Sizemore, who is struggling with a drug epidemic. He is joined in the cast by, amongst others, Kerry Washington, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Lara Flynn Boyle, Desmond Harrington, RZA, Shannyn Sossamon, Illeana Douglas, Carly Pope, Richard Portnow and Vondie Curtis-Hall.
The movie is scheduled to hit theaters June 26, 2009.

Very nice job once again Sean.
Wonder if they had 'Hot' in the title of the movie because even when made up as a druggie Brandon is sizzling hot! Ouch! ^_-

Good to see Routh mixing up his roles a bit. This could be an interesting film and something that is allowing Routh to grow/improve as an actor. I just hope next year we can start to see some new Superman set photos of him being released :)
