Hehe!  Now, I just have to get Katee cast in a big motion picture.  She's pretty funny in interviews.  I think a nice rom/com would be perfect for her!

How about a political comedy set in Australia and with space involved? I could suggest casting lol ;)

Some news.  They've changed the release date.  Two years away now from this movie...

Warner Bros. Pictures has announced that Zack Snyder's Superman movie Man of Steel will be released in theaters on June 14, 2013 and not in December of 2012 as was previously believed.

No other films have been scheduled for that date yet.

Written by David Goyer and Jonathan Nolan, the anticipated film stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Michael Shannon, Antje Traue, Russell Crowe, Julia Ormond, Christopher Meloni and Harry Lennix.

I like this bit of news.

The Daily Planet has made its latest, greatest hire: Laurence Fishburne will reportedly play Perry White, the long-standing editor-in-chief of Metropolis' go-to newspaper, in the Superman reboot "Man of Steel."


EW.com and other sources report that Fishburne has been cast as Clark Kent and Lois Lane's hard-charging, occasionally comic-relief-bestowing boss. Warner Bros., however, is not yet making the official announcement, with a rep telling MTV News the studio cannot comment on the reports.

Fishburne is joining a long line of previous Perrys, from Jackie Cooper, who played the newsman in Christopher Reeve's "Superman" films to Frank Langella, who stepped into White's shoes for 2006's "Superman Returns," to Michael McKean, who took on a short Perry arc on TV in "Smallville."

Fishburne becomes the first African-American actor to portray White. He's also, in one of those odd Hollywood confluences, one of a handful of crime-procedural vets to join "Man of Steel." After recently departing "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," Fishburne will meet up in the Superman film with Christopher Meloni (the "Law & Order: SVU" vet who is playing a military general) and Harry Lennix (who is also playing a general and once appeared on "Law & Order: LA"). Lennix also starred with Fishburne in final two "Matrix" films.

The Fishburne casting leaves one prominent Daily Planet post unassigned. Amy Adams is playing reporter Lois Lane, while Henry Cavill is gearing up to become Clark Kent himself. So who will step up to play photographer Jimmy Olsen? Stayed tuned, because even though "Man of Steel" has been delayed until June 2013, Warner Bros. isn't wasting any time putting together the remaining in-front-of-the-camera talent.

Here it is... our first look at Henry Cavil as Superman..

It's just one picture so it's hard to judge but I'm sure it won't stop some of you from doing so. :)

I need a cold shower. That's like geek porn. LOVE IT.

The suit is bang on. Nice texture, great centre badge, slightly sticking out like in the new comics, the cape has that awesome Roman look. He looks pretty damn good as Supes as well. Massive thumbs up from me. I'd like to see his Clark look now.

[Dangelus]

Hmmm I like it. Agree with Meds about the suit and cape. He looks like he's got a bit of an attitude, like he's not going to take any crap. :)

[Rico]

I'm pretty ok with that suit look.  I really wonder if it will line up with the new look that DC is giving Supes in the comics?  I know some early pics are out of the redesign look for the comics.  I'm guessing there won't be any connection, but you never know.  The thing I'm most happy about is for a change this is a more established, slightly older Superman/Clark.  Looking forward to that a lot and not having to have time spent on the whole origin story yet again.

[Rico]

Ok - here's DC's upcoming Superman #1 cover.

[Meds]

Neat. Totally agree with you Rico on the established Supes and Clark.

Here's another pic I found.  Smaller image of Supes, but fills in the scene a bit more.
