Kevin Spacey Signed on for Next Superman Movie

It was scarcely touched on during a recent Kevin Spacey feature in Great Britain's The Independent, but the actor is set to return to the Superman franchise.

According to the interview, the producers of the upcoming Superman Returns sequel "will be paying (Spacey) big bucks to reprise his role as Lex Luthor next year."

It was reported in August that Warner Bros. plans to reintroduce the Man of Steel to audiences by 2011. Major changes may be afoot, however, as the previous Superman movie failed at the box office and with critics.

Kevin Spacey will be back for another Superman movie... but will audiences?

Kevin Spacey is a Shrink

Kevin Spacey will lead the ensemble cast of Shrink, an indepndent drama that has just begun production in Los Angeles.

According to Variety, Spacey will portray a shrink to the stars, a suitable role for an actor that comes across as haughty... but in an appealing way.

Saffron Burrows, Jack Huston, Griffin Dunne, Robin Williams, Pell James, Robert Loggia, Keke Palmer, Laura Ramsey, Gore Vidal, Dallas Roberts and Mark Webber will play a mosaic of Hollywood characters who are his clients.

In the film, the American Beauty star will take on a character that is unable to come to grips with a recent personal tragedy; the shrink is a chronic pot smoker who no longer cares about his personal appearance and has lost faith in his ability to help his patients.
