Jude Law Is New Superman
World Entertainment News Network

Hunky British actor JUDE LAW is the new SUPERMAN - after beating off
competition from JOHNNY DEPP and COLIN FARRELL.

The TALENTED MR RIPLEY actor has been chosen by producers for the
high-profile role in new movie BATMAN VS SUPERMAN - because he
doesn't fit-in to the normal superhero stereotype.

A source on the PEOPLE NEWS website reports, "They wanted to get away
from the mega-muscled action stars."

People News also claim that Farrell has bagged the part of Batman,
despite reports that British star CHRISTIAN BALE has signed up for
the role.

The film will be directed by WOLFGANG PETERSEN, the man behind AIR
FORCE ONE, THE PERFECT STORM and the cult German submarine drama DAS
BOOT.

Hm. That'd be interesting-two distinctly American superheroes being played by a Brit and a Welshman. However, according to Coming Attractions (http://www.corona.bc.ca/films/mainFramed.html) it's false.

I think Ain't it Cool reported it as being true, and I know many people think that site is fucking doctrine... so perhaps that's why the rumor is rather out of control.
