wtf? Brandon Routh to pose nude for playgirl for $500,000

Yeah, it won't happen. I bet there's a clause somewhere in his contract that prohibits him from doing any activities that could be seen as being detrimental to future revenues for the sequels, considering he's now THE image of the Superman franchise. I bet Christian Bale and Tobey Maguire have something like this in theirs too, considering they all have multi-picture deals in huge franchises.

Daniel Radcliffe AKA Harry Potter, is preparing to star in a revival of the play EQUUS in London. He WILL be naked on stage for a couple of scenes. And he's just 17. ( Yes - actually nude.)
His advisors aren't holding him back, saying it's bad for his career. Maybe Routh should be cut some slack, if he agrees to this.

Not the same thing. Routh might as well pose on the cover of Advocate if he does a Playgirl layout. He'll kill his career unless he plans on doing porn from here on out.

Precisely, many if not of all these actors are constricted or barred from specified actions until they are no longer involved with the franchises.

Burt Reynolds posed for Playgirl just when his fame was starting to rise. The result? He became the biggest box-office star for over a decade.

Was he playing Superman or obligated to any similar franchise? 😉

A good example was that guy who was the Dell dude. He was basically the young image of Dell, and it was his image and character that was used to sell to the 15 to 25 year old crowd when it comes to PC's. Well guess what happened. He was caught in possession of some drugs, and bam he was instantly fired because of it. Why would Dell do something like this? Because they have to maintain a clean and wholesome image, especially considering that their market of 15 to 25 years old's usually has an adult doing the purchasing for them. Once these parents associate Dell with any bad publicity, sales will be effected.

Same goes with the Superman franchise. It's main actor has to keep himself out of any negative publicity of any kind, or else the Superman movie franchise could lose any potential future revenue.
