LAURENCE FISHBURNE IS PERRY WHITE

Zack Snyder’s Superman re-boot The Man of Steel, is putting together quite a cast. The film already has Russell Crowe as Jor-El, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Michael Shannon as Zod, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Kevin Coster as Jonathan Kent, and The Tudors’ Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent. Now Laurence Fishburne has joined the cast as Daily Planet Editor-in-Chief Perry White. Morpheus is an interesting choice for role, considering it’s always been played by a crochety old white guy yelling at a kid photographer all day long.  For some reason it’s hard for me to imagine Cowboy Curtis saying, “Great Cesar’s Ghost!” Superman: The Man of Steel was set to debut in December of 2012, but has since been pushed back to June, 2013.
