According to Harry over at Ain’t It Cool News the mental giants at Warner Bros. may have opted to cast Beyonce Knowles as Lois Lane along with Johnny Depp as Lex Luthor.
Ummm… what the fuck?
I’m no big fan of Superman to begin with, but not since some dumbass decided that Richard Pryor would make a convincing “computer genius” in Superman III have I heard of such bad casting. Someone over at WB needs to lay off the friggin’ crack pipe.
In all fairness, the cast hasn’t been officially announced at this time and this could just be a wild rumor, but if it’s not then I doubt I’ll be “flying” into a theater come 2006 to see it.



















Depp is possibly the best actor of his age group—he can do everything. I wouldn’t be surprised if he made a great Luthor; ever see Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas? He was Hunter S. Thompson.
Seriously, he’s pretty damned good.
