Diane Lane

Zack Snyder has made a wise decision to put Diane Lane in as Marta Kent, the mother of Metropolis’ hero Clark Kent AKA Superman. According to Snyder, from the release, “This was a very important piece of casting for me because Martha Kent is the woman whose values helped shape the man we know as Superman. We are thrilled to have Diane in the role because she can convey the wisdom and the wonder of a woman whose son has powers beyond her imagination.”

I personally am a fan and totally good with this choice. Between Henry Cavill and now Diane Lane being cast, Christopher Nolan producing, David Goyer Writing and Zack Snyder at the helm, we may very well have a worthwhile movie. Now the same could have been said about Superman Returns, so we’ll just have to wait and see.

I do like Diane Lane (She was sooooo hot in Judge Dredd) but isn’t Martin Sheen Pa Kent? Doesn’t that seem like a big age difference?

  I don’t think there has been any official casting other then Henry Cavill and Diane Lane so far.

Yeah I read that there are rumors about Martin Sheen and Kevin Costner are going to be in it. What part they may or may not have is unknown.

If you’re a Diane Lane fan I suggest you check out “Ladies and Gentleman the Fabulous Stains”. She plays the lead singer in an all girl punk band in the 1980s.
