Henry Cavill - New Superman

In casting news, Man of Steel has added Jadin Gould as young Lana Lang, with rumours that Dylan Sprayberry has already been cast as the young Clark Kent in the Superman new film.

Due to Zack Snyder’s state that his version of Superman will be about the superhero’s origins and part of that includes teen years,  13-year-old Gould will seize the role of Kent’s first girlfriend from his childhood in Smallville.

Eva Green in Negotiations for 300: BATTLE OF ARTEMISIA

Eva Green

Isn’t the fact that prequel to the fantasy action film 300 is zeroing in on its female lead instead of founding its male star, a bit unusual? Quite the opposite; in my opinion, this is to be expected.

Due to the fact that the film is tentatively titled 300: Battle of Artemisia, it’s obvious the former Bond Girl Eva Green would be the titular Artemisia – a ruthless, wicked goddess who persuades king-turned-god Xerxes to assemble his army and lead them into battle against the Greeks.

MAN OF STEEL Plot Synopsis

Man of Steel

Unfortunately word is no way of starting one report, but, unfortunately, nothing new in here. I mean, I do understand that you can not expect something spectacular from another superhero movie, but it would be nice if we could just seat and expect the unexpected from the upcoming Zack Snyder‘s Man Of Steel.

Cast is ok, but I guess that “reboot” thing is just so depressive when it comes to this project.

And before you even start telling me that I’m just one stupid hater, check this out:

“In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twentysomething journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone’s imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question – Why am I here?

Fishburne First Black Actor Chosen as Superman’s Perry White

Laurence Fishburne, Man of Steel

Sorry I’m late, but Laurence Fishburne still continues what he started in Parker’s 1995 film version of the Shakespeare play, when he became the first African American to play Othello on a big-screen by a major studio. Now, Morpheus is set to play Perry White in Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ new Superman film, Man of Steel.

We have learned so far that Perry White has been a secondary character in all the adaptations made on Superman, but it had never been embodied by a black actor until now. Lucky for Fishburne, times are changing right in front of his eyes.

In popular culture, the feminine Kryptonian named Ursa, in Superman and Superman II is thought to be based on Faora, who appeared in season eight of Smallville as the wife of General Zod.

Michael Shannon

Now when we have Michael Shannon as General Zod on board, we can continue our chat about the upcoming Zack Snyder’s Superman reboot titled Man of Steel. Of course, we all expect to find out more details about Shannon’s involvement in this movie, so guess what! The actor was interviewed as the Emerging Master Honoree at the 2011 RiverRun International Film Festival.

“This ‘Superman’ thing is ridiculous. It just came out of nowhere. I was talking to my agent … she’s like, ‘How about ‘Superman’? I’m like, ‘What?’ The idea that I would ever be in ‘Superman’! I’m like, ‘Are you serious?’” said Shannon and continued:
