ST Superman Returns Kate Bosworth as Lois LaneWe're looking forward to the new Superman movie and Kate Bosworth should be terrif as Lois Lane.

But she's revealed that she only got the part because one of her co-stars begged for her to be cast.

Kate's said that it was Kevin Spacey - who plays bald baddy Lex Luthor - who put her name forward to the Superman Returns director.

She worked with Kev on 2004 movie Beyond The Sea.

Kate told OK! magazine: "Bryan Singer (the director)... told Kevin they were looking to cast Lois Lane.

"Kevin told him he had just worked with me and that he should take a look at the film and see what he thinks.

"I feel like a huge part of why I got the role was because of Kevin and how he put me forward."

Brandon Routh as SupermanBryan's otherwise filled much of his cast with actors he's personally worked with before.

He directed The Usual Suspects, which starred Kevin.

And Lois Lane's love interest will be played by James Marsden, who Bryan directed in X-Men.

Superman, James and, in real life, Orlando Bloom too. How many hunks does one girl need, Kate?
