They've Cast Martha Kent


A couple of days ago it was announced that Diane Lane will play Martha Kent, the adoptive mother of Kal-El/Superman/Clark Kent in the new Superman movie.  What a fabulous piece of casting, although Lois is going to have to be one hell of a live wire to get us to drag our eyes away from Mrs Kent!  Diane is a favourite here at the hollow since her days playing Cherry in The Outsiders.
Diane is the first actor to join the film since Henry Cavill was cast as the Man of Steel in January.

"This was a very important piece of casting for me because Martha Kent is the woman whose values helped shape the man we know as Superman,” Director Zack Synder said in the release. “We are thrilled to have Diane in the role because she can convey the wisdom and the wonder of a woman whose son has powers beyond her imagination.”

It's a big thumbs up from us.
