Are Anne Hathaway and Amy Adams Miscast in the New DC Comics Superhero Movies?

Update: Man of Steel will not hit theaters until Summer 2013

Anne Hathaway has mixed opinions from Batman fans regarding her for the role of Selina Kyle/Catwoman in "The Dark Knight Rises". Many think that she was miscast and only got the role because she was "Who's Hot" in Hollywood, which is similar to what fans are saying about Andrew Garfield who will be starring as the new "Spider-Man" in theaters next year. Below see trailer for Catwoman in the upcoming "Batman: Arkham City" game.















Will it be a much harder sell, to see Amy Adams as Lois Lane in the "Man of Steel". Will she be able to pull off the role as the hard hitting reporter with so many of the disgruntled Superman fans thinking she's not the best actress and doesn't have the right look (regardless of her hair color). When "Superman Returns" was being cast fans also had a problem with Kate Bosworth getting the role of Lois Lane and according to most fans is considered to be the worst Lois Lane to date.






































Will both actresses be able to show comic book fans that they were the right ones for their roles or will they show how totally wrong they were? We will see, The Dark Knight Rises will be in theater in the summer of 2012 and The Man of Steel will be out the summer of 2013.

I will hold my judgement on Amy Adams as Lois Lane until the movie comes out. She couldn't possibly be as bad as Kate Bosworth. But let's be clear about something - Erica Durance who played Lois Lane on Smallville is best Lois in history. It seems a shame not to let her play the part on the big screen.

As far as Hathaway playing Catwoman, she would have been fine a few years ago before she dieted herself into an anorexic stick person. Now she's just freakish looking.

I kind of agree with many of the fans that Anne Hathaway was only cast because she's the Hollywood It Girl.

I also think Erica did a great job on Smallville. With the Man of Steel cast being so random, I'm kind of happy she not in the film.
