Adams 7Insiders behind the upcoming Superman: Man of Steel have confirmed that gorgeous ginger Amy Adams will play Lois Lane in the franchise reboot, which will be shooting in Chicago this summer. Director Zack Snyder said in an interview with the LA Times that Lois Lane was a “linchpin” to the film and that the Depression-era character would be updated for 2012, adding:

“There was a big, giant search for Lois. For us it was a big thing and obviously a really important role. We did a lot of auditioning but we had this meeting with Amy Adams and after that I just felt she was perfect for it.”

Hopefully by "updated" Snyder means "nude", not its other, dreaded code meaning, "packed with bad CGI effects." Details are still sketchy on the plot of Superman: Man of Steel, but Adams, who has played both tough (as the athletic Charlene in The Fighter) and nave (as time-traveling princess Giselle in Disney flick Enchanted), certainly has the versatility to pull it off. Not to mention that redheads are Mr. Skin's kryptonite. Up, up and away!
