Kevin Spacey is set to return as Lex Luthor in the super-sequel Superman: Man of Steel, to start production next year for a 2009 release. Also per Variety, Spacey will star in Telstar, a film adaptation of Nick Moran and James Hicks' darkly comic West End play about flamboyant '60s record mogul Joe Meek.... Alex Proyas (I, Robot) will direct Dracula Year Zero, the origins tale about Vlad the Impaler.... Danny DeVito and his Jersey Films shingle are eyeing a biopic of electronics shiller "Crazy Eddie" Antar, says the New York Post. Insane, I tell ya.

Didn't anyone read the comic books? Lex Luthor was not Supe's only foe. I wish someone could have a little imagination and try something different. One of the best things about Superman 2 was the trio of villains from the Phantom Zone.
What about Mr. Mxyzptlk? Do they not want to use him because they don't know how to pronounce his name?
Not that I don't love Kevin Spacey, but hey.....

I still haven't forgiven Spacey for K-Pax.

Totally agree--they need to use NEW villians! freshing things up a bit! Don't just rehash to the old! It's not like the Rest of Hollywood is recycling everything left and right like a completely unnessesary and unwanted remake of Footloose...(well, scratch that!) Love to see The Parasite and/or the Silver Banshee...

Screen grabs people! That's what "ALT + Print Scrn" is for. :)
