Here’s a hot rumor that I’m absolutely loving: Natalie Portman is in talks to play Lois Lane in the Superman reboot being produced by Christopher Nolan. The other rumor — which is also very cool, but not nearly as sexy — is that Darren Aronofsky will be directing the film. Here’s a clip from Hollywood.com:
Natalie Portman might venture back into the world of superheroes, but this time — not behind a masked vigilante. The actress is rumored to be the next Lois Lane in the upcoming Christopher Nolan-produced Superman reboot. Whoa! This follows more rumors that Darren Aronofsky will be directing. Double whoa!
While some people slam Portman’s acting ability, she’ll certainly be better than that chick from Blue Crush, right? And yes, this article was a great excuse to post a sexy Natalie Portman picture.
I love her she can do whatever she wants!
I think it's bad casting.
I always pictured Superman/Clark Kent to be in his early 30's (in the human aging scope). Lois Lane should be age appropriate.
Though Natalie is pushing 30 now… she can still easily pass for early 20's. I want a no-name cast.
I'd prefer they not reboot a movie they just rebooted. Just sayin.
@smartguy
superman returns was not really considered a reboot, somehow they decided to have a sequel 20 years later like Lucas decided to have an Indiana Jones sequel 20 years later too.
Idk if i would enjoy Natalie (but i do enjoy the pics you've chosen Rpad) as Lois. I think Erica Durance (who plays Lois on Smallville) would do an excellent job too.
@tokz it was only 5 years in the movie
@redtailman
oh i know that in the movie only "5 years passed" but it took them 19 years to release a sequel to the franchise and then it didn't even acknowledge Superman 3 or 4. So what kind of a sequel is that??
@Ray: You never need an "excuse" to post sexy Natalie Portman pics.
@tokz_21 Superman 3/4 should never be acknowledged. That was the right thing to do — kind of like how Rocky Balboa ignored Rocky V.
