This is my most anticipated CBM to be announced as of now. Nolan, Snyder, and Cavill. Can't wait :D In order: Superman, The Dark Knight Rises, Green Lantern, Spider-Man, Thor, & Captain America.

Going to be a great next two years for CBM's.

She's been the best Lois Lane yet. Hopefully this movie can get someone just as good or better.

Olivia Wilde, Jessica Biel,or Monghan, no McAdams... That forehead is too big for me to look at. And we alread had a sub-par looking Lois on the last one.

Yeah we're getting a super short, and skinny british bad actor as Superman!

Now I know I will be skipping this mess just like I skipped Singerman Returns in theaters.

They should have gone with Tom Welling or Joe Manganiello! They look the part, and are actors who naturally have that "Superman" or Clak Kent ish personality.

Watching a Brit do an American Accent always looks forced, and vice versa an American speaking with a British accent never sounds real.

But the fact that this guy is hardly 6'0 and doesn't weight but 180 tops really worries me, and bothers the hell out of me.

Snyder is getting off on the wrong foot, and if you want to see some bad acting watch Hellworld.

This kid isn't a very good actor yo.

@ThaJackaL

Now some Britsh actors can do great American Accents. The guy from Sons of Anarchy and Green Street Hooligans can do them both extremely well...

Omg, they are gonna mess this up. This guy can add all the weight he wants, he is too small. and he doesnt have the look for Clark or Superman. and wats with the contemporary thing? They dnt have to "redo' Superman to make a good movie, just give him some real villains besides Lex. Can anyone say DOOMSDAY?! Smallville has been on so damn long because its done things the movies havent, our first Doomsday, Impulse, Cyborg, Aquaman, Zatanna and so on and soon our first Darkseid. WB and DC is gonna [frick] up Superman like Marvel did the Hulk, with a bunch of actors and a bunch of stories that all lead to CRAPSVILLE! BUT....with the guidance of Nolan, maybe it won't be too damn bad. Believe in Nolan.

@ThaJackaL

Henry Cavill is 6'1". Not really short, by any standards.

NextHero08 @ CW is part of WB not the main WB dude!

But I know what you mean DOOMSDAY a must in the movie!

Origin = Flashbacks!

As long as he can do an american accent good enough, theirs no reason to be flipping out about this...

@ThaJackaL: Idris Elba and Dominic West in The Wire? Andrew Garfield in The Social Network? Aaron Johnson in Kick-Ass? Mark Strong in Kick-Ass (+others)? Andrew Lincoln in The Walking Dead? Hugh Laurie in House? Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood? I could go on... :)

Good Brit actors can manage an American accent perfectly fine.

@GUNSMITH- Couldn't agree more, Rachel McAdams HAS to be Lois in this film! I don't want that twilight chick getting the part.
