It's a rumor that Jon Hamm himself finds downright super.

During an appearance on Live With Regis and Kelly this morning, the Mad Men star was asked about the never-ending buzz on the blogosphere that he's being strongly considered for the role of Superman in the upcoming reboot Man of Steel.  

"Those are sort of the Internet things that one person says and 15 more people twitter it and then it becomes this sort of phenomenon," explained Hamm, who nevertheless seemed thrilled that his name was even being linked to the last son of Krypton.

"It's sort of news to me, but if the powers-that-be are thinking that, I'd like them to get in touch with me. We can maybe discuss this."

Are you listening, Warner Bros.?
