Brandon Routh Return As Superman Connects Michael Keaton's Batman To Ruby Rose As Batwoman

Deadline Hollywood has reported that both actors Tyler Hechlin & Brandon Routh will suit up as Superman in the upcoming Arrowverse Crossover. Hechlin, who plays Superman recuringly on the Supergirl tv series. Brandon Routh played The Man of Steel in the fifth installment of the Christopher Reeves version of the character. My first response was "Why did it take so long?" With this all happening here is the way I see the many connections with the Arrowverse and other DC properties.

During the last Crisis, we saw Berry and Oliver visit Smallville to seek the help of Supergirl. We found them in the Kent Farm. The same farm used in the TV series Smallville staring Tom Welling. This indicates that Tyler is playing an older version of Welling's version of Clark Kent, especially sense he and Lois spoke of the time Clark caught her from a fall of a latter in the barn.

With the news of Brandon Routh putting on the blue tights again it reminded me that Superman Returns was a direct sequel to The Quest For Peace. Meaning that Routh is the same Superman as Reeves. Before this, in the 90's there was a green lit project to be directed by Tim Burton called Superman Lives, another direct tie to the Christopher Reeves Superman. According the the documentary "The Death of Superman Lives: What Happened" by John Schnepp, there was a part in the movie where the death of Superman causes a moment where Batman makes a public service announcement to the citizens of Metropolis. This was to be played by Michael Keaton.

The way I see it, there are many ways to play the Return of Brandon as Superman. He could be the Arrowverses version of Superman who just discovers himself and takes on the cape for the first time. The other possibility is that he's from another Earth. Both situation it will be funny to see them talk about how much he looks like The Atom. I'm hoping for scenario one because if Brandon's Superman is from Earth One then that means Michael Keaton's Batman is from Earth One which means Ruby Roses cousin is Michael Keaton.

Odds are, I'm not getting my fantasy outcome. I would love this to be the case. I'm also seeking a situation where Supergirls Earth merges with Earth One or she finds herself stuck in it.  The new season starts fall of 2019.
