Former Superman Dean Cain Said He'd Have Knocked Out Eggboy Who Egged Australian Senator

Superman actor Dean Cain isn’t holding back after witnessing a video with a young protester who egged an Australian politician.

Superman has been featured in many forms over the years, whether it be in comics, animation, or live-action. Back in 1948, the black-and-white Superman serial brought the Man of Steel to the world of live-action for the first time, thanks to the help of actor Kirk Alyn. In 1993, Dean Cain donned the red cape and blue Kryptonian suit to star in the TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. The actor played the iconic DC hero alongside Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane.

A video recently surfaced online of an Australian politician getting egged by a teenage protester on-camera, who is then quickly brought to the ground by multiple other people in the room. One person who had quite a bit to say about the controversial video is Dean Cain, who took to Twitter to share his thoughts. Check out what the actor had to say in the post below.

Dean Cain didn’t stand down from his opinion and elaborated more on his thoughts in the comments section of his post. Check out the comments below to see what the actor had further to say on the video.

I seem to recall him being awful about other things as well.

Very much for social justice.

Dean Cain was cast as Kara Zor-El's adoptive Earth father, Jeremiah Danvers.

SPOILER SPACE

































Well, as Dean Cain got nuttier on Twitter, Jeremiah Danvers was made into a semi-sketchy fellow, and was put on a bus. Permanently.

Dean Cain is not someone whose ethics and beliefs aligns with Supergirl's. The show is now doing something very, very good about Alt-Right and Alien Rights, for example.

Wow, we're all just so impressed, Dean. You think you could REALLY win a fight with a child? Ooooooo. Tough guy. So scary. How many children does Superman beat up in your show, Dean?

Pretty sure Cain is one of the stable of actors that keep showing up in those with the actress (Laurie Loughlin?) that got caught in the college entrance scandal. Candice Cameron is in that group also. seems like a little cult over there.

I could be wrong. I really don't watch such stuff, just recognize some actors.
