So Amy Adams Is The New Lois Lane...

[fembuck]

I never would have guessed this in a million years but now that the announcement is here ... I kind of like it.  

When I was considering Lois Amy Adams name never entered my mind, but thinking about it now that she's been cast she seems like a good fit.

She's not my dream pick (there is some worry she'll make Lois too cutesy), but I can kind of see it as well. So I'll be hopeful. In any case, at least this isn't as jarring and WTF for me as Anne Hathaway as Catwoman.

Like most of the world, I would have loved Rachel McAdams in the role though. But other than her I never had any really set ideas for Lois which is probably making it easier to be okay with Amy's casting.

Agreed Rachel McAdams would have been great for the part. I wanted Bridget Regan, I think she would have done a great job. I understand the worrying. Amy Adams to me is just naturally very bubbly.

Agreed about Anne Hathaway as Catwoman! That came from deep left field. Who was your pick for Catwoman?

I think Bridget Regan would be a great Lois. She's got a natural warmth and exudes intelligence, but she can be fierce as hell too. She'd never have stood a chance though, with a relative unknown cast as Clark, they definitely wanted a name actress for Lois.

My ideal pick for Catwoman would have been Eva Green. Marion Cotillard was a favorite of mine too for a while. Amber Heard (http://www.wallpaperez.info/beauties/Amber-Heard-143.html) is one American actress I could have seen in the role (though she's maybe too young).

There's probably plenty of other actresses I would have been just fine with playing the role as well as long as they were mysterious and sexy. Anne is just too cute and giddy for me to see it.

Who would your choice have been?
