Zack Snyder’s Superman reboot MAN OF STEEL has now added
celebrated actor Laurence Fishburne to its already impressive cast. In a move
that is sure to provoke a lot of fan debate, the MATRIX star will be joining
the eclectic ensemble as The Daily Planet’s editor Perry White.

We all know there’s going to be a bit of an outcry in regards to the ethnicity of the comic book character, but I’m not going to rise to it – Fishburne is a bloody good actor, so I personally couldn’t care less.

Previously announced are Henry Cavill as Clark/Superman, Kevin
Costner and Diane West as Ma & Pa Kent, Russell Crowe as our hero’s
biological father Jor-El, with Julia Ormond as his mother Lara. Rounding out
the cast is Michael Shannon as General Zod.

MAN OF STEEL will hit cinemas June 2013.

What
