Henry Cavill Cast As The Man Of Steel

"Tudors" regular Henry Cavill has been chosen as the next man of steel, playing the dual roles of Superman and his mortal alter-ego Clark Kent in the upcoming Warner/Legendary co-production of "Superman." The British actor is best known for playing confidante Charles Brandon to Jonathan Rhys Meyers' Henry VIII in Showtime's acclaimed period-drama series " The Tudors ," but already seemed poised for a feature-film breakout with a starring role in Summit's upcoming action film " The Cold Light of Day ," which also features Bruce Willis and Sigourney Weaver.

Christian Bale Up For Another Batman Film

This may not come as a huge surprise but it does come straight from the horse's mouth: Christian Bale , talking to Empire last month, said that The Dark Knight Rises will be his last Batman movie...probably. "All I know is the likelihood that this will be the last one," says the star. " Well, I wouldn't say definitely . If Chris goes, 'Hey, I've got another story I think could be interesting,' then yeah, great, I'd go do that . I always assumed it would be three, but I could be wrong. I don't know if there's something wrong with me, but I don't feel any pressure." Nolan's on record as saying that the next film will be the last chapter in his Batman franchise, so we're going to assume that's it, but hey! It's nice that Bale isn't locking anything out. It's clear throughout our interview that he and Christopher Nolan continue to enjoy a great relationship, and also that Bale's looking forward to the

The studio also revealed which character Tom Hardy , who joined the cast last fall, will play: Bane . Bane, a man who spent his whole life in prison, was a test subject for a drug that gave him increased strength, although he also became addicted to that drug.

Hathaway was on the the list of actresses which tested for the role in recent weeks, along with Jessica Biel and Keira Knightley, as revealed by Heat Vi

Christopher Nolan Talks Superman Reboot

Christopher Nolan Talks Superman Reboot In the latest issue of Empire magazine Christopher Nolan had comments to share on David S. Goyer and the upcoming Superman reboot he's penning and producing. Nolan had this to say; “..What it is, while David Goyer and myself were putting together the story for another Batman film a few years ago, you know thrashing out where we might move on from the Dark Knight, we got stuck. We were just sitting there idly chatting and he said ”by the way, I think I know how you approach Superman”.. and he told me his take on it. I thought it was really tremendous. It was the first time I’ve been able to conceive of how you’d address Superman in a modern context I thought it was a really exciting idea. What you have to remember about Batman and Superman is that what makes them the best superhero characters there are, the most beloved after all this time, is the essence of who they were when they were created, when they were first developed.
