No, Clark Icon, it's not about you.

It's about Lois! Amy Adams will be playing Lois Lane in the new Superman reboot. I find I care way more about this than the casting of the appealing but otherwise unknown to me actor they have playing Clark Kent/Superman. Amy Adams is terrific. I've loved her to pieces forever, probably since before I knew who she was. (I remember loving the actress who played Leonardo DiCaprio's fiancee in Catch Me If You Can, but I didn't know it was her at the time.) She's great in a variety of roles, too. I think she can pull off a great Lois. I think a redhead would be pretty spectacular, too, but they'll probably make her dye it which is a crime since her hair is so gorgeous.

In non-superhero news--just regular hero-y news, I took my poor work-mate home today. She nearly fainted and threw up from a stomach bug that came on in all of fifteen minutes at work today, and the rest of the lab was in a tizzy about her because she's usually pretty damn hardy. They all had to go to a meeting--which, again, nobody told me about--so I got to stay and take her. She tried to fight and insist she could cab it alone or take the subway at least, but I refused to let her, and good thing, too. She was almost passed out in the cab by the time we got to her place. Poor thing! Good deeds do get rewarded, too: there was a 7-11 just north of her apartment. Mmmmmm, first slurpee of spring....

Way to go above and beyond to help out a friend!

Also, I'm hopeful about the Amy Adams casting. I think she could do just about anything, though I'm skeptical about her as a brunette. There's no law saying Lois can't be a redhead. In fact, Noel Neill in the Adventures of Superman had red hair, so there's precedence.

And a little bit of trivia: Amy Adams was on Smallville in the first season, as the fat sucking vampire.

Whaaaaaat? I didn't know that!! Man, was there anyone who hasn't been on that show? (Aside from Batman, I mean.)

After I saw Enchanted I looked her up, saw the credit on IMDB, and rewatched the episode straight away. So, those Smallville DVDs are good for something after all :)

Interesting. I know the name and I recognize her face, but what else is she in besides Catch Me If You Can, which I haven't seen? Sounds like there's a lot going for this reboot already. Here's hoping it doesn't fail.

That sucks for that poor girl with the stomach bug. I hope you don't catch it. Mmmm Slurpee. Damn, now I want one.
