Amy Adams Scores Lois Lane Role
March 28, 2011 By Leave a Comment
The adorable Amy Adams has been cast as Lois Lane in the ‘Superman’ reboot. The 36 year red head was given the role after a slew of auditions from formidable fellow actresses. Rumors even saw Twilight saga’s starlet, Kristen Stewart, as the front-runner for the role. (Sorry, Twihards. I am breathing a sigh of relief that she won’t be Lois. I get enough one dimensional angst filled lip biting in the Twilight movies.)
The casting has been a long process that has been taken in cautious steps. The failure of the last Man of Steel film, ‘Superman Returns,’ took a $70 million loss and has fans wary of yet another remake. Kate Bosworth was the last to play Lois Lane as Brandon Routh donned the tights and cape.
Amy has been dubbed “perfect” for filling the shoes of Lois. Henry Cavill was announced as the new Superman a few Zack Snyder, the director of the revamp, broke the news to Amy while he was in Paris promoting his latest film, “Sucker Punch.”
Per Hero Complex:
“There was a big, giant search for Lois,” Snyder said. “For us it was a big thing and obviously a really important role. We did a lot of auditioning but we had this meeting with Amy Adams and after that I just felt she was perfect for it.”
No plot details have been ironed out, but the director did share some of the details of his vision…
“It goes back to what I’ve said about Superman and making him really understandable for today. What’s important to us is making him relevant and real and making him empathetic to today’s audience so that we understand the decisions he makes. That applies to Lois as well. She has to be in the same universe as him [in tone and substance].”

Kristen Stewart to Play Lois Lane in Superman Reboot ?!
February 1, 2011 By 4 Comments
From Vampire chic to Snow White, and now possibly Lois Lane? We still don’t know in which direction the new ‘Superman’ movie will head, with the exception of the fact that Henry Cavill will be playing Clark Kent/Superman, but word on the street is Kristen Stewart is being eyed to play Superman’s love interest in the new upcoming reboot. In fact, according to Comic Book Movie, Gregory Littley twittered that she has already read for the part.
I’m hearing Kristen Stewart has officially read for Lois Lane in Zack Snyder’s #Superman reboot. #PlsStopThis
Several other ladies are currently being looked at for the role of Superman’s main squeeze. Among those actresses are Jessica Biel, Malin Ackerman, Rachel McAdams, Dianna Agron, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Kristen Bell. Anne Hathaway was reportedly being scouted for the role, but has been removed from the shortlist of actresses as she’s playing Selina Kyle in Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Dark Knight Rises.’ There’s no word on when the casting of Lois Lane will be complete, but with the movie scheduled to hit theaters in December 2012, I’m sure it will be decided soon.

Henry Cavill is the New Superman – PHOTOS
January 31, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Superman is an epic fail compared to the Batman revamps. Let’s hope this attempt to breathe new life into the new films works.
Henry Cavill will star in the redo Superman movies. Zack Snyder announced that Henry will be the next to squeeze into blue tights and a cape.
“In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time, and I am honored to be a part of his return to the big screen. I also join Warner Bros., Legendary and the producers in saying how excited we are about the casting of Henry. He is the perfect choice to don the cape and S shield.”
You might recognize him from ‘The Hotness Hour with Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ aka ‘The Tudors.’ (I have no idea what happens in that show. All I hear are words, words, words, hotness, more words.) Warner Brothers is hoping that their choice will be a fresh start and less like their failed attempt at casting a Christopher Reeve lookalike in the first remake.
Via Deadline:
“He’s got an amazing quality. He doesn’t look too much like Reeve and Routh but he’s big and strong and he has a very modern feel to him,” a Warner Bros exec just told us. “We’re really going to try and make Superman as contemporary as possible.”

Bradley Cooper, Reynolds and Justin Timberlake Duking It Out Over Green Lantern
July 10, 2009 By 1 Comment
Our movie screens will soon be graced with yet again another superhero, this time in the likes of the Green Lantern. Three frontrunners have emerged in the race to star in the Warner Bros. movie – Bradley Cooper , Ryan Reynolds, and Justin Timberlake. No I didn’t stutter, Justin Timberlake is a contender. Warner Bros. have spent the past five months searching for the right actor to play Hal Jordan, the hot-shot Air Force pilot who is chosen by a dying alien to be his successor in an intergalactic police force known as the Green Lantern. And hey – the latest DC Comic Hero even gets to wear a super-powered ring!! Reports are that Timberlake, Cooper, and Reynolds all had holding deals with the studio, which expired this past monday. This will force the studio to make a decision soon, as the three will be free to accept new roles. They all have done two rounds of screen tests, surviving other finalist including Michael Fassbender, Henry Cavill, and Jared Leto. The decision to be made is said to be a difficult one, with director Martin Campbell, producer Donald De Line, and the studio each having a different favorite.
Another issue keeping the movie grounded is the budget. Currently, the full-blown space epic is expected to cost at least between $150 million and $200 million dollars, with the possibility of it winding up even higher. Warners would like to have the production costs at a reasonable level before proceeding, which they better figure out soon as the studio has scheduled the movie for a December 2010 opening.
My personal pick would have been Chris Pine for the role, but since that isn’t going to happen, out of the three I’d have to go with Bradley Cooper. Reynolds is already associated with Deadpool in the movie “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” with a spin-off in the works, and Justin Timberlake just doesn’t seem like the super-hero type to me, although I do think he is a decent actor. I wonder just who will edge the others out to become the defender of Space Sector 2814.
