Hayley Atwell, Kate Beckinsale & Diane Kruger Testing For Horizons

Deadline reports that actresses Hayley Atwell (Captain America), Diane Kruger (Inglourious Basterds) and Kate Beckinsale (Total Recall, Underworld 4) are currently testing for the second female role in Joseph Kosinski's (Tron Legacy) Horizons/Oblivion.

Tom Cruise and Jessica Chastain (The Debt) are already locked in as the leads. Oddly enough actresses who have been mentioned as possible options for the second role like Olivia Wilde, Brit Marling and Nooi Rapace aren't being listed.

Diane Kruger, Jessica Biel, Eva Green, Paula Patton, Eva Mendes & Kate Bosworth Could Join Total Recall Reboot

It looks like Len Wiseman's (Underworld 1-2, Die Hard 4) Total Recall reboot is about to find it's two female leads. Deadline reports that the studio is talking with actresses that will star opposite Colin Farrell. In the role of Doug's wife Lori played previously by Sharon Stone is being read by Kate Bosworth (Superman Returns) and Diane Kruger (Troy, Inglourious Basterds). Also in the role of capable and dangerous ally Melina could be Jessica Biel, Eva Green (Casino Royale), Eva Mendes (Once Upon A Time In Mexico) and Paula Patton (Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Deja Vu). Production is expected to start soon in Toronto at Pinewood Studios so expect casting announcements in the coming days.

That fact Deadline is naming both Lori and Melina could mean the remake is closer to the original than previous thought. I'd love to see Kruger in the role of Lori but I think any of those actresses could pull off Melina. I'm just hoping there is more science fiction than previously stated. As Mars was an important aspect in both the film and original story. The remake is set for an August 3rd 2012 release date.

RUMOR: Eve, Pike & Kruger Up For Kryptoian Villain Ursa?

LatinoReview is claiming to have found out who the unknown Superman role actresses Alice Eve, Rosamund Pike and Diane Kruger are testing for. It's General Zod's right-hand lady Ursa who was featured as one of three Kryptoian villains in Superman II.

If true this means that Zod very well could be a villain in the film. I also wouldn't be surprised to see Joe Manganiello in the role of bruiser Non. I'd rather see a Krytoian war on Earth instead of Lex Luthor being the villain for the umpteenth time. There have also been rumblings of Doomsday being the film's big baddie.

Alice Eve, Rosamund Pike & Diane Kruger Up For Unknown Superman Role

Variety reports that Alice Eve, Rosamund Pike and Diane Kruger (Troy, Inglourious Basterds) are up for a major female role in Zack Snyder's Superman. Alice Eve has tested for Captain America and landed the Emma Frost role in X-Men First Class before quitting over the limited part. Pike also had been linked to the Frost role but ultimately didn't get it. The kicker is that they say the role is not for Lois Lane. Surprisingly enough there aren't many female roles in the world of Superman. I expect that it could be Lana Lane, Kara Kent (Supergirl) or Lara (Clark's Kryptonian mother). More than likely the latter of the three as a brief scene of Clark's origin made into a credit montage is very possible.
