So based on what is official and rumors...

Henry Cavill-Clark Kent/Superman
Kevin Costner-Jonathan Kent
Diane Lane-Martha Kent
Viggo Mortenson-Zod
Daniel Day Lewis-Zod or Jor El...makes more sense than Zod.

So far the casting is pretty good.

This is an excellent list.

Olivia Wilde is still being rumored for Lois.

March 3 2011, 11:31 PM

^
Until they get that list down to atleast 2 Lois hopefuls...

[edit] Lindsay Lohan for Lois Lane.

Admiral_Young · March 3 2011, 11:59 PM

Lindsay Lohan and Josh Brolin YE SHALL NOT PASS!!!

Nerys Myk · March 4 2011, 12:30 AM

Lohan can play Cat Grant.

Broccoli · March 4 2011, 01:35 AM

Interesting as Diane Lane has a previous Superman connection: she played Toni Mannix, the wife of studio head Eddie Mannix, who had an affair with George Reeves in Hollywoodland.

Fan poster

The tagline doesn't make sense though. Did Pa Kent bury some aliens in the backyard when Clark was young?

From "Superman"'s lover to Superman's mother? That's a bit creepy...

Although I guess it's no worse than the various Lois Lanes playing the mothers of newer Lois Lanes who then get intimate with or married to Clark/Superman (Noel Neill -> Margot Kidder; Phyllis Coates -> Teri Hatcher -> Erica Durance).

I love that fan poster, but yeah the tag line doesn't make much sense. Any fan poster with Kevin Costner should have the tag line "If You Build It They Will Come!!"

How about "dry land is a myth"

Yeah, their names are Jor-el and Lara.

Annette O'Toole played Lana Lang and Martha Kent.

Right, that too. And she made a very lovely Lana.

The tagline isn't the greatest but it's got me sold on Costner as Pa Kent.
