After Latino Review had their SUPERMAN scoop this weekend, we at JoBlo have a SUPERMAN scoop of our own. I won't go out on a limb with the amount of confidence the guys at Latino had yet, but I've got a source says he knows who's close to getting the part of Lois Lane. Our source, who requested anonymity, claims that director Bryan Singer has whittled the casting down to four candidates and at the top of that pack is Evangeline Lilly, who has been in auditions for the part for the past few weeks. The name might not ring a bell immediately (it didn't for me) but then our scooper told me she's the star of ABC's current hit series "Lost". Lilly stars as Kate, the mysterious and sexy former criminal stuck on the island. The 25-year-old actress started as a Ford model and sequed into acting, though "Lost" has been her only major part. Our scooper also says that the other three actresses up for the part of Lois Lane are "name" actresses with the current debate being whether to cast the unknown (Lilly) or a more recognizable actress to offset the newcomer Brandon Routh as Superman. Singer reportedly wanted to cast two relative unknowns as Superman and Lois but hasn't made a final decision yet. I will keep digging and hopefully find out more on this situation as it develops. Thanks to our "He Who Shall Not Be Named" scooper for the report.
