Radioactive Man (film)

:This article is about the movie. For other pages, see Radioactive Man (disambiguation).
Radioactive Man was a feature film adaptation of the comic book and television series of the same name.
Rainier Wolfcastle was chosen as the star of the film, although a producer suggested Dirk Richter, star of the television series, despite the fact that he was ''73 years old and dead". The producers needed to film it in a location that had a Nuclear Power Plant and a gorge. They chose Springfield, assuming it had to be a good place because they add found in Variety was small and incorrectly spelled (as "Flim Springfield").
Mayor Quimby and Chief Wiggum were excited for the fact that the film would be shot in Springfield, vowing that they would do whatever possible to help the film. However, they, along with the rest of the town, started gouging the film producers for as much money as possible.
The producers began an exhaustive search for the child who would play Fallout Boy. A number of children, including Bart Simpson, Nelson Muntz and Ralph Wiggum, auditioned for the role before Milhouse Van Houten was chosen. However, Milhouse was forced by his parents to do movies so they can live a weathy life. Milhouse did not like being a star, finding the repetitiveness and phoniness disheartening. He eventually ran away from the production, just as the most expensive scene in the film was being shot.
Mickey Rooney tried to convince Milhouse to return to the film, but was unsuccessful. Rooney tried to play Fallout Boy himself, but the producers decided to shut down production, since they want only Milhouse, nobody else, to be Fallout Boy and they were broke from the townspeople's gouging. The film was permanently shelved."Radioactive Man"
Also, there is a comic book adaption based on this movie and it shows what the film could have been about if Springfield and Millhouse's parents didn't ruin the film, Milhouse ran off, and the director's poor choices.

== Behind the laughter ==
* The movie itself is a parody of big budget superhero films, like the 1989 Batman, and the 1978 Superman.
* As the film Radioactive Man Re-Rises reboots what is described in season 25's "Steal This Episode" as "the last one", it can be inferred that a Radioactive Man film was picked up and produced prior to Re-Rises but after the unfinished Rainier Wolfcastle film from the season 7 episode "Radioactive Man".
