Main Item #3 for this essentially slower than a Merchant Ivory film news day has emerged over at SupermanV who've landed a pretty interesting scoop. According to them, the long-attached Director McG gave a big 'make or break' Superman presentation to the WB execs last week. The presentation -- thought to include conceptual art, storyboards and set designs -- got a positive reaction from the suits. The site expects McG reinforced his choice of Henry Cavill for the lead, whilst recent buzz about "Smallville" star Tom Welling getting the job is not true. His agent had apparently been pursuing the role, but the tall buff actor apparently doesn't want the part, and WB and McG want to cast their own Superman, not use someone else's. "Smallville" has its own continuity which won't be related to any future "Superman" film.

Thanks to 'Robert'.
