Sequels A suggestion about REPLACING Kate Bosworth.

[y2jversion1]

First of all, I love Superman Returns. I thought it was great. However, its obvious that alot werent too pleased with Kate Bosworth's performance as Lois.

Should Kate Bosworth be replaced for future films?

If so, I'm offering the suggestion of replacing her with House's Jennifer Morrison. She bears a strong resemblence to Kate's Lois and her mannerisms and voice are similar enough to make a smooth transition. She, however, is also a great actress on the show and has a slightly more mature look and presense compared to Kate. She could possibly make it more believeable without totally changing Kate's Lois completely.

2 comments on this chick -

a) I'd totally hit that

b) I think she'd be perfect as Mary Jane in the Spiderman series instead of "Snaggle-tooth" Dunst.

Because they couldn't risk having two unknowns as the leads in a big budget movie.

 

[Lightning54SC]

well the rolled the dice woth routh they should have anted up

 

[Van Petrol]

Nah, I don't want her to be replaced. And I doubt it would happen anyway...

Bosworth may not be an unknown, but she's not that famous either...

I would've liked Jennifer Morrison, but I still mantain Caroline Dhavernas (Wonderfalls) as my first choice.

Sorry but Bosworth IS a name. I have never even heard of Jennifer Morrison probably like alot of people.

 

[Silver Lad]

She's not good-looking enough. Louis should be seriously sexy.

Morrison is way hotter than Bosworth. Kate is just starting to look scary looking now.

I wasn't saying Morrison is more known than Bosworth. but Bosworth isn't that famous, not to the degree of, say, Rachel McAdams.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

Haha I strongly disagree. If you go ask 20 random people who Kate Bosworth and another 20 who Rachel McAdams is more people are going to know Bosworth but whatever.

actually, I watched SR with about 10. only one of them could indentify Bosworth, and only as "the girl who did that surf movie".

after Mean Girls, The Notebook and specially after Wedding Crashers, McAdams is definitely more well-known. not to mention Red Eye, which did moderately well.

Bosworth is actually more well known than Mcadams, most recently due to all the publicity surrounding her and Orlando Bloom.

Agree to disagree.

'kay then.

 

[Superwoman Prime]

If Kate Bosworth dies, then of course they will have to replace her.

But yes ... I like Kate's Lois to an extent. But I want to see a new Lois. A better Lois. When I look to the stars, I know she's out there somewhere.

The first comment I want to make here, is that if the next Superman film sticks with this storyline, Lois Lane could actually be written out of the film, or have a bit part because of Jason being Superman's son, and if Jason wasn't Superman's son, she could easily be left out all together considering how things were left in the movie. If Singer directs the sequel and wants to take a more real world, and more Superman driven approach, he should let Lois/Richard/Jason live happily ever after. Hey Clark, sometimes you lose the girl you love, it happens, call me and I'll give you some tips. Anyway, this would mean bringing in Lana Lang to be the love interest in the backdrop of a good, old fashioned Superman adventure, and I would be totally fine with that at this point. Again, thats if this storyline is continued.

Back on topic, Id like to say that Kate Bosworth played a character who was Lois Lane in name only, which is how the character was written, so it's not technically her fault. Could she do the regular Lois Lane, maybe, I don't know. She wouldn't be my first choice. Should Kate be replaced, let me offer up my suggestion for her replacement................

...Sarah Michelle Gellar. She can act, she is hott, and she is a name. SMG is pretty much a triple threat and has always been my first choice for Lois Lane.

You know what. This is getting bad now. Bringing in Lana would be death. I think they should simply ditch the romance, keep it where it was at the end of SR with it semi-resolved...

And make the sequel an effin action-fest that focuses on Superman's kryptonian heritage if anything.

The romance angle is done and over with now.

 

[Superwoman Prime]

Beating a dead horse, is what it is.

 

[DieselsDen]

Kate is just fine as Lois Lane. I had no trouble seeing her as Lois. If she looks too young, then so be it. Margot Kidder aged horrible between sequels. (And I don't mean to knock Margot Kidder, I loved the first two Superman movies.) Teri Hatcher looks worn and weathered after her stint in the awful LOIS AND CLARK.

Why fanboys complain about her so much is beyond me. Natalie Portman as Padme in STAR WARS and that redhead chick who plays MJ in SPIDER-MAN were so much worse.

 

[DieselsDen]

Just because other actress's are the it girls..doesn't mean they will have the same chemistry that Kate and Brandon have..you can see them on screen smouldering..you truely believe that they love each other..

and just one line sold me on bosworth..

"how could you leave us like that" fantastic acting.

I agree. (I hope you're not being sarcastic. If you are, it doesn't matter because I thought her Lois was just fine.)

 

[Parker]

I admit Kate Bosworth wasn't the best choice for Lois Lane, but switching out actors mid-franchise has become obsolete. It imposes too much of a disturbance on the audience. I think we should just be happy with what we've got and hope Kate identifies more with her character in the sequels.

 

[Mr. Walters]

Haha I strongly disagree. If you go ask 20 random people who Kate Bosworth and another 20 who Rachel McAdams is more people are going to know Bosworth but whatever.

I think Bosworth is famous because of Superman Returns and maybe because she is dating Orlando Bloom. Anyway, when she was announced as Lois Lane, I had no clue who she was. In fact, I didn't know anyone who knew who she was.

Agreed. The only thing worse than Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane would be Kate Bosworth and someone else as Lois Lane.

ALOT of ppl have never heard of Kate Bosworth. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who can even pinpoint anything she's done which was remotely popular. There goes that theory.
