Divo of The Day “Tyler Hoechlin” (8/21/13)

 
Tyler Lee Hoechlin was born on September 11, 1987. Tyler is an American actor who got his big break starring as Tom Hanks' son in the 2002 film Road to Perdition. Tyler is best known for playing the role of Martin Brewer on 7th Heaven. Tyler is best known as Derek Hale, a mysterious Alpha werewolf in the MTV series Teen Wolf.
 
 
Tyler is also being heavily considered for the part of Bruce Wayne / Batman and will be getting a screen test alongside Henry Cavill. Warner Bros. and Zack Snyder are looking at someone to play the new Batman with a reputation similar to Cavill. It's also said that better known actors could also be testing for the role. As filming is expected to begin in early 2014, screen tests should be happening soon.
 
 
Regarding the plot of the film: "The sequel is set a year after Man of Steel, and the world is still getting used to having this powerful god on the planet who isn't fully trusted by everybody. Batman certainly doesn't trust Superman. Superman doesn't trust Batman; either of which causes the two to clash when they initially meet. They do however pair up to defeat the villains (not 100% confirmed who the villains are).
 
 
BuddyTV ranked him #3 on its list of "TV's Sexiest Men of 2011"

  1. Even though I truely love Tyler's work, i can't imagine anyone else playing Emmett. It turned out for the best. But love Teen Wolf and he was great in 7th Heaven.
