By James Wray Jan 7, 2005, 17:59 GMT
Kate Bosworth is in negotatiations to play Lois Lane in the forthcoming "Superman" movie from Warner Bros.
Kevin Spacey is set to play nemesis Lex Luthor.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the casting of Lane was a long process that ultimately rested on a chemistry test between the actress and Brandon Routh, who is playing Superman, says the trade. Bosworth reportedly beat out the likes of Claire Danes, Linda Cardellini, and Michelle Monaghan.
Director Singer also told Variety that he is making a move somewhere between the original and the Smallville series.
"It's a little like 'X-Men,' where the mutants existed when the movie began," Singer said. "It's not an origin story; I didn't want to remake what Richard Donner did so well in the original, and didn't want to tread on the great work they're doing on 'Smallville.' He's already part of the culture; he has left the planet. This is the story of his return."
Filming is due to start March 3 in Sydney.
