Johnny Depp to Play Lex Luther in Superman?
Posted by:Dark Horizons got some huge information on the upcoming revival of the SUPERMAN franchise via a scooper named The Smile Face Poster. Everything to do with this film is still speculation but man, Warner Bros should start believing the hype. Click here to read the whole article. You're gonna want to after you check out some of the details below.
"I finally got a word on the casting for McG's SUPERMAN. I will tell you this, and tell it to you first: Henry Cavill is Superman. This is the director's favorite and a majority of the fan's favorite also. Warner Bros. realizes this, and they also see how the casting of Christian Bale for Batman got high-ups from the fanbase. They want to do the same."
"Rose Bryne and Selma Blair are "this close" to getting the role of Lois Lane, and one of them will get it."
"While Topher Grace auditioned for the role of Jimmy Olsen, apparently it may (the key word is may) go to THE OC co-star Adam Brody."
"Now comes the main event. I can safely say that you can expect Johnny Depp to be the next Lex Luthor. That is, because he is the studio's favorite and McG wants to work with him. He's tied because he's not exactly sure if he wants to accept, and he also has CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY filming soon under the direction of Tim Burton. But WB and McG are really trying to nab Depp, since he turned out the most viable in his screentest.
Holy crap! I want to believe all of this but that would mean the studio has made all the right choices, something that doesn't really fly these days in Hollywood. Stay tuned for any confirmation or squashing of the above facts.
