RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[Captain Russ]

Now the trades have added Alice Eve, Diane Kruger and Rosamund Pike to the list. But they're not reading for Lois because (*Plot twist!*) she isn't the female lead!

Lana?

[FilmNerdJamie]

Fuck me for not thinking of Sam Rockwell.

Also in an alternate reality where he wasn't already over-swarmed with franchises, Robert Downey Jr would be Fletch.

[Timothy225]

PLEASE let one of the actresses being considered play Lori Lemaris the mermaid!

That's the best choice yet, although I still think that Jason Lee could do wonders with the part.

[Ed Hocken]

Jason Lee would have done great with the part....back in 1997.

[PHEDG]

I could totally see Joel McHale as Fletch.

[Ed Hocken]

That's gold, Fej. GOLD!

Sounds like there's actually going to be two ladies clamoring to fuck Supes in the reboot. Fine by me personally.

^Fuck what that guy just said. Not surprisingly Lois is in the reboot and this phantom lady Eve/Kruger/Pike are testing for is Ursa. The same female villain from the Christopher Reeve movies.

Has Jessica Biel Already Been Cast In Superman?

[B_Metal]

I <3 Biel but not sure she's right for Lois.

Guess that means we can expect those Zod rumors (the ones Snyder gave a non-denial to last year) to re-surface. Which begs the question: exactly what was so damn "fresh" about this take they kept talking up?

Don't get me wrong. I can't wait for a new Superman movie. But you get what I'm saying.

[B_Metal]

All the people in it will look like models?

[FilmNerdJamie]

Actually went ahead and Netflixed the first season of The Tudors to see what's so special about our new Man of Steel young Mr. Cavill. Don't get wrong, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and I'm sure he'll deliver the goods.

But I saw him in Stardust and Whatever Works...and he was terrible. But I keep hearing "Oh but he's great on The Tudors." Gotta wonder if that's the looks talking though.

*Hollywood closed door meeting*

Hollywood dude 1: We gotta do something fresh and edgy, got any ideas?

Hollywood dude 2: Well we can put Will Smiff's kids in it.

Hollywood dude 1: We could but the movie doesn't have one character under the age of 35

Hollywood dude 2: Let's just make them all pretty

Hollywood dude 1: That could work.

Ha yes, the female villain who looked like a cross between a young boy and a Gray alien. At least she'll look pretty now.

If Nolan/Snyder are listening right now and taking suggestions, cast Josh Brolin for Lex Luthor, Kieran Culkin for Jimmy Olsen and John Goodman for Perry White. And just send my check in the mail.
