High On ‘Dark Knight,’ Warners Contemplates Next Steps For McBoringface Superman

So it was with a measure of genuine delight that we received an e-mail blast entitled, “ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT IS EXCLUSIVELY INSIDE THE SECRET WEDDING OF ‘SUPERMAN’ BRANDON ROUTH,” a subject line that effectively teased the many details of the one-movie-long resuméd actor’s mystery-enshrouded nuptials therein: The Man of Steel is officially off the market! ‘Superman Returns’ star BRANDON ROUTH married longtime girlfriend, actress COURTNEY FORD, on Saturday at JON and MINDY PETERS‘ 3000-acre El Capitan Ranch, just outside of Santa Barbara, CA.
