Charisma Carpenter

Superman/Wonderwoman : ’Turncoat’ is back again with more on two DC Comic adaptations long in development over at Warner Bros - some old rumours confirmed/denied, along with some new ones brought up.

"Superman" - "Still trying to find a cast [flash forward to Thanksgiving 2009...still casting].

As with Superman, there is about 5 candidates for the Lois Lane role at the moment.

They are : Selma Blair ("Hellboy"), McG’s friend Drew Barrymore, Claire Forlani ("The Medallion"), "Friends" starlet Courteney Cox, and "Buffy"/"Angel" babe Charisma Carpenter.

I think they might be looking at Sydney for the shoot [this week]". "Wonder Woman" - "I think there’s some movement which seems to be coming along nicely with Joel Silver still doing it and "Birds of Prey" creator Laeta Kalogridis penning.

Early rumors of Sandra Bullock being roped into it again, also heard names like Ashley Scott and Eliza Duskhu as potential WW’s. They’re writing it really dark, and not campy, something along the lines of Batman and the new Catwoman.

A ’name’ male will co-star [they need a new franchise ...Catwoman sounds like it doesn’t have the whiskers]".

There’s also some further Supes rumours up at AICN, more stuff about Brendan Fraser and talk of shooting in Sydney.

With the film not heading out till about 2006, all this location talk is just that - talk.

With US film production in Australia in the near future looking the bleakest it has been in years (about the only feature shooting here in the next few months is the Mask sequel), the room is available for the project but all this premature speculation may in fact harm the chances of it ending up Down Under. Thanks also to ’Count’.
