For those who haven't heard yet, the new Superman movie directed by Bryan Singer has finished the "big three" casting decisions. Brandon Routh will play Clark Kent/Superman, Kate Bosworth will play Lois Lane and Kevin Spacey will play Lex Luthor.

Spacey has the real evil of mojo! ....and not just the one calorie diet Coke evil mojo. No, NO, it's the real evil mojo.

I loved him as the guy who was from another planet who was stuck in the Psycho Ward! I wish I could remember the name of the movie! I'd go buy the DVD!

I dunno about Spacey as Luthor. I've never seen Spacey play any character that he DIDN'T make a bit effeminate and I can't see that working for Lex. Don't get me wrong, Spacey is a great actor -- I loved him i LA Confidentail, especially -- but I'm not sure he's Lex Luthor material. Personally, I would have cast Ed Harris.

I dunno...Spacey may not be too bad, shave his head and he shouldn't do too bad of looking the part, now how evil he can be may be the question...

but enough about Spacey...how about Kate Bosworth

granted I loved Teri Hatcher as Lois in the series (but that's a whole 'nother story), but I haven't seen to much of Kate to know if she's even a good actress....

I saw Ed Harris in "Enemy at the Gate" as the cold, calculating and emotionless German sniper. The part was well played. He would be a good Luthor, but he seems a little too cold. In his previous roles Harris comes across as being arrogant enough for Luthor, but lacking passionate anger towards his protagonist.

I forgot that was him in "Right Stuff". Too bad he couldn't have replaced Glen as our senator.
