Was previously deleted after an AfD, before his role in Man of Steel (film). Notwithstanding his role in that movie, I still do not believe he meets WP:NACTOR. His IMDb filmography can be found at:. Singularity42 (talk) 00:26, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Having a role in a major motion picture should be enough.  NintendoFan (Talk, Contribs) 01:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep In addition to playing young Clark Kent, a truly iconic role in a major pmotion picture, he has had appearances on Glee and iCarly. Here is significant coverage in the Houston Chronicle.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  02:39, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * @NintendoFan and Cullen328. Obviously  he has had a role in a major motion picture.  But NintendoFan, you comment "having a role in a major motion picture should be enough."  But WP:NACTOR requires multiple major roles.  He's not there yet, and the guideline is there so we that have an objective line.  Another major role, and he will meet the guideline, but not yet.

 * Singularity42, please check. The guideline doesn't require "major" roles. Instead, it talks about "significant" roles. I consider the Glee role to be significant.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  03:42, 18 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. My keep is sort of a borderline "weak" type keep, but it's still a keep. If all Sprayberry was known for was his Superman role, I'd recommend redirecting this to the article for that film and be done with it. However at the same time I've found where he's received notice for a few of his other roles such as Bedrooms. It's a little hard finding sources at times, as some of the ones that specifically mention him by his full name (as opposed to just the last name or character name) tend to fall along the lines of this source that look potentially usable but still sort of look a little suspicious. In any case, there's just enough notability here to where I think Sprayberry just manages to scrape by on notability standards for something other than his Superman role. If I wasn't able to find the two other reviews I'd be a little more dubious, but they do exist and are just enough for right now. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:42, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - per Tokyogirl79, and definitely clean up and expand. ö   Brambleberry   of   RiverClan  14:38, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
