Russell Crowe Signed On To Play Superman's Father In New Movie!



Academy Awarding winning actor Russell Crowe has just been cast to play Superman's biological father Jor-El in Zack Snyder's 'Man of Steel'.

In the first Superman movies the role of Jor-El was played by the great Marlon Brando who appeared in the crystals in Superman's Arctic hideaway. Even though there may have been other Superman movies made you shouldn't expect 'Man of Steel' to be anything like them because Zack has already said that he's making this movie as if there was none before it.

Russell Crowe will join Kevin Costner, who will be playing Clark Kent's adoptive father, Diane Lane as Ma Kent, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Michael Shannon as General Zod.

I'm actually a big big fan of Russell Crowe and know he's gonna be great.

Amy Adams Will Be The next Lois Lane In 'Superman' Movie

The much sought after role of Lois Lane in Zack Snyders' 'Superman' movie has been taken by the red-headed beauty Amy Adams. 

The news of the 'Enchanted' starlet landing the role was released just this weekend. Amy Adams will be starting opposite Henry Cavill who will play Clark Kent/Supermand, Kevin Costner and Diane Lane who will be both be staring as Mr. & Mrs. Kent, Superman's adoptive parents.

36-year-old Amy was nominated for an Academy Award for her work in 'The Fighter' this year (2011). I dont really see her as the Lois Lane type, probably because of her red hair (which I love) but we'll have to wait and see how she does.
