Just a small titbit of film information here. According to The Globe and Mail Zack Synder‘s SUPERMAN reboot will be filmed in Vancouver, Canada. Peter Leitch, the Chairman of the Motion Picture Production Industry Association of BC and president of North Shore Studios and Mammoth Studios stated that Synder’s next production will be taking place in Vancouver.
Over the years Vancouver has become a powerhouse for film production especially the superhero kind with HULK, the X-MEN films, WATCHMEN and many others shoot up in Canada.
There has been lots of casting rumours over the last two months concerning who will be strapping on the cape. One of the fans favorites for a long while was that of MAD MEN’s Jon Hamm but were quickly shot down by the actor himself. Now the frontrunner seems to be TRUE BLOOD‘s Joe Manganiello, stating he would be honoured to play Superman and work with the director. Another frontrunner, but for the role of Lois Lane is Anne Hathaway. At this point these are still speculations and no official word has been announced but stay tuned. SUPERMAN: MAN OF STEEL is looking at a December 2012 release.
